        The purpose of the present research is to study the relationship between Iran’s Islamic Revolution and the formation of the Axis of Resistance in giving identity to Lebanon’s Hizbullāh. The main hypothesis is that the Islamic and Shi’ite identity of Iran’s Revolution having some criteria such as soft power could have give identity to the Shi’ite movement of Lebanon’s Hizbullāh and emphasize on the spirit of seeking martyrdom, religion-centeredness, Shi’ite symbolism, belief in Wilāt-i Faqīh, and battle against the hegemony in regional aspects. The method of study was descriptive analysis and the results showed that the cultural, Shi’ite, political, and geographical features have expanded the identity that Iran’s Islamic Revolution has given to Lebanon’s Hizbullāh.   Manuscript profile

        4 - Resistance Movements in West Asia and the Challenge of Iran's Leadership Role in the Axis of Resistance

        This research, employing a descriptive-analytical method with a problem-oriented approach, examines the positive and ideological nature of the Islamic Revolution in the West Asian region as a unique phenomenon. It has managed to transform into an identity-giving model for the states and groups within the Axis of Resistance. The study adopts a developmental research approach, recognizing the Axis of Resistance as an unwritten security alliance among Shiite and non-Shiite resistance movements in West Asia and beyond, aimed at combating the Israeli regime and Western dominance in the Middle East, thereby advocating for the liberation of Palestine. From the early days of the Islamic Revolution's victory, Iran, by rejecting both Western and Eastern influences, proclaimed the formation of the "Party of the Oppressed" encompassing all the world's oppressed, positioning itself as an inspiring model for militant Muslims. Consequently, countries like Saudi Arabia, which seek to expand the Wahhabi ideology and lead the Arab world, accuse Iran of exporting the revolution and attempting to overthrow regional governments. Aligning with the West, they strive to portray Iran as a threat to regional countries, emphasizing its influence in four capitals (Beirut, Damascus, Baghdad, and Sana'a). On the other hand, the Zionist regime attempts to establish friendly relations with Iran's neighboring countries to implement its "Iranophobia" project. By infiltrating Turkey and Iraq in Iran's western borders, Azerbaijan and Central Asia in the northern borders, and the Gulf countries, especially Qatar, in the southern borders, Israel aims to encircle Iran and reduce its influence in leading the Axis of Resistance.

        The purpose of the present study is to review the most important impediments to transition to democracy in the Islamic Republic of Iran in the 5th decade with a futuristic approach. Among different methods of futurology, analysis of the selected process with a qualitative approach was used in this research. The research population was composed of a selection of academic experts in the subject of political transition and the sample size was determined by theoretical consecutive sampling. Data collection instrument was a semi-structured interview that reached theoretical saturation by doing 16 interviews. The results showed that some factors such as structural and normative integrity between the dominant elites, weak civil society, lack of economic prerequisites, and a rentier state are among the most important impediments to peaceful transition to democracy and strengthening that in the 5th decade of the revolution. These obstacles in front of democracy in the 5th decade of the revolution have a social and structural nature that decelerate the process of peaceful advancement to democracy and strengthening that by an accumulative effect on each other as well as on the political structure and cause that transition to democracy in the 5th decade of the revolution does not proceed with an expected speed.

        The present study aims to examine the impact of the Islamic Republic of Iran's strategy of exporting the revolution on the geopolitics of the Middle East and the onset of the Iran-Iraq War. The research method is descriptive-analytical, and the results indicate that considering the internal fragility of Arab countries and the nature of the authoritarian regimes in the Middle East, which suffer from crises of identity and legitimacy, as well as the positions of Imam Khomeini, whose intent behind exporting the revolution was never to interfere in Iraq's internal affairs or to send terrorist equipment to this country, and the statements of the Ba'athist regime of Iraq, it can be concluded that the theory suggesting the Islamic Republic of Iran's strategy of exporting the revolution was the cause of the Iraq-Iran War is generally invalid and lacks scientific and definitive evidence. The primary reason for the fears and concerns of the Ba'athist regime in Iraq was the crisis-ridden nature of its system. Manuscript profile

        This study aimed to examine the political culture, the Shiite women contribution in politics and its effect on Iranian women’s political culture. The research was carried out using a descriptive-analytical approach. The underlying assumption was that, although the political culture components in Iran such as authoritarian culture has been responsible for the decline of women participation in politics, due to the influence of the Iranian Shiite women’s political culture, the women political participation in certain periods of history has increased. For example, during the Islamic revolution under the supervision of Imam Khomeini (ra) the political participation of women has reached its peak. During the revolution, the role and contribution of women in politics for the first time became equal to that of men. The revolution was a manifestation of the political participation of women in Iran. Manuscript profile

        Research on the history of Iran's contemporary developments since the 1979 Islamic Revolution has always been cited as a turning point in the study of historical and social events. As the backgrounds of the revolution of the 1940s and 1950s shaped, political forces and parties made different behaviors and decisions in response to this great revolutionary movement. One of the most important forces and political parties of the Left in the Second Pahlavi era is the Tudeh Party of Iran. This research is based on a descriptive-analytical research method that seeks to answer its main question. The main question of this study is how do the reasons for the continuation of the Left parties, especially the Tudeh Party, differ before and after the Islamic Revolution in Iran? One of the main reasons for the continuation of the Left parties, especially the Tudeh Party, is the social base of the Tudeh Party and its leaders before the 1979 Islamic Revolution, which failed to accompany the Islamic Revolution after the Islamic Revolution and to one of the opposition groups. Became Islamic. Alongside this internal cause, we can observe the change in the relations of the great powers after the 1979 Islamic Revolution in Iran. With the collapse of the rigid bipolar system, the pro-opposition forces inside Iran withdrew their support, forcing them to continue operating inside Iran. The Tudeh Party is at the forefront of these forces Manuscript profile

        It has long been argued that the controversy of identity is one of the main sources of crisis in the Middle East and international politics. That is, the existence of differences in the identity of the countries causes tension between them, while the convergence and similarity can lead to cooperation. Nevertheless, empirical evidence from the Middle East has long defied this hypothesis. The present study seeks to answer the question why does Saudi Arabia, who claims to be the leader of the Islamic world, has repeatedly opposed the rise of Islamist movements in the Middle East? The research hypothesis implies that, In the case of Saudi foreign policy, similarity became particularly threatening as the distinctiveness of the Saudi identity was challenged and identity similarity is as a source of conflict. To address this paradox, this article builds on the growing literature on ontological security to explaining how similarity can generate Tension, insecurity and identity risks. The article follows with a comparison of Saudi identity risks in the wake of the Iranian revolution (1979) and the ascendance of the Muslim Brotherhood to power in Egypt (2012). Manuscript profile

        The main purpose of this article was to move on the course of new political sociological developments, postmodern turn and then to use categories of identity through discourse theory of Laclau and Mouffe to analyse the Islamic revolution in Iran. In this regard, the shortcomings and the reasons for the shortcomings of revolutionary theories in explaining the success of various revolutions have been pointed out, and then an attempt has been made to provide a model in the field of revolutionary theories to have a higher explanatory power to answer questions and to remove ambiguities. In the present study in order to achieve this model, the issues related to identity and discourse have been combined and from this perspective the reasons for the victory of the Islamic revolution of Iran have been analyzed. Since in the new political sociology, discourses are the mirrors for the representation of conflict and transformation in identities, on the eve of 1979, the discourse of the Islamic revolution of Iran was able to marginalize all other discourses by emphasizing on Islamic identity and revolutionary signs.

        The main purpose of the present article is to study the discursive transformation between political forces after the Islamic Revolution in Iran. To realize this goal, the discourse of political forces as discourse activists was studied, and the type and extent of the development of this discourse in the first revolution (revolutionary fever period) until 1363, the government of war until 1989, the lifetime of the Imam, the government of construction and reform, and The beginning of the ninth administration has been determined. From the theory of discourse of Laklau and Mouffe as a conceptual framework, the method of analyzing the discourse of critical thinking was used as a research method. The data from this analysis were derived from the letters and some of the statements and some of the official organs. Findings of the research indicate that in the articulation of these discourses, until 1363, when unity was seen among the Islamist forces, the Islamic Republic and Imam (central) are the central slab, and their discursive agent is secular political forces (socialists And liberals). But with the split in the Islamist political activists (the Islamic Republic Party), the discourse of the right political forces (fundamentalists) and the left (reformists) has been subject to change since 1988. The most important discourse developments are from the traditional left to the modern left and from the traditional right to modern from 68 to 84. Modern right discourse evolved into two mainstream, radical, fundamentalists. The center-right central slope is centered on the divine rule of the jurisprudent, and is therefore classified as an elite-dominant religious proponent (such as the clergy society). But radicals emphasize the role of people alongside religion, emphasize economic justice, fight corruption, and clean hands. Manuscript profile

        Without exaggeration, the phenomenon of the Islamic Revolution in 1978 has been one of the most important factors affecting the biological field of Iranian society. Mural painting grew and expanded as a boiling point of politics with the public sphere at the time of the revolution. This period is like a turning point in the political history of Iran, the recognition of which can be the key to understanding how contemporary political and social currents are formed. Due to the relevance of the subject and the extraordinary ability of Laclau and Mouffe's theory of discourse in the analysis of socio-political affairs and phenomena, the researcher has chosen this theory as his theoretical and methodological framework, and the innovation of such research is that by using This theory, by basing the murals in the context of their emergence as texts that are the products of discourse, has sought to answer the question of how the political discourses of the revolution evolved into the stabilizing discourse of war and then according to each The period of rule of various signs has been added or reduced to the central sign of the revolution. In this regard, how the socio-political developments of the revolution and post-revolution in the murals have been the subject of this research. Examining and analyzing the central signs in the forty years of the establishment of the Islamic Republic, it became clear that the discourse of the revolution during the transition to the discourse of war and then the transition to the period of stabilization under the influence of sociology-political factors and shifting power relations with fundamental changes in world representation.

        AbstractThis research investigates nuclear discourse of president Ahmadinejad and compares it with discourse of the Islamic revolution in Iran. The research method is discourse analysis and theory of Laclaue and Mouffe is used for analysis of the topic. The research explains how nuclear discourse of Ahmadinejad government is articulated and hegemonized then the research compares it with discourse of the Islamic revolution based on speeches of Ayatollah Khamenei the leader of the Islamic revolution in Iran. The research finds that articulation of nuclear discourse of president Ahmadinejad is accommodated discourse of the Islamic revolution in signifiers such as definite right of the Iranian nation, independence, justice, prestige, resistance, development, national technology and peaceful purposes. While some analysts have tried to introduce Ahmadinejad's nuclear discourse as a different discourse from the discourse of the revolution, and in fact an extreme and irrational discourse, the findings of this paper show that both two discourses have been in the same line.

        Nowadays, it is no longer possible to ignore the agency of people in creating effective events in societies. In other words, in the researches and analyzes of researchers and thinkers, the role of the people in changing the structures of their society and sometimes the direction or change in the political behavior of the rulers is prominently observed, and the analysts and thinkers by addressing People's agency, contemporary movements and uprisings are investigated. Based on this, the purpose of this article is to investigate the position of the people in the Iranian revolution with Michel Foucault's genealogical perspective and find an answer to these questions: what role did the people play in the Islamic revolution of Iran and how can it be done? From the perspective of Foucaultian genealogy, did he analyze the position of the people in the Iranian revolution? The claim of the authors is that based on a genealogical perspective, the Iranian revolution of 1357 can only be understood based on the agency of the people.To investigate this claim, Foucault's genealogical method was used and the topics were presented in the form of theoretical sections, the process of the revolution, general analysis of the revolution and genealogical analysis of the revolution, and conclusions were drawn from the topics. The findings of the article showed that without an understanding of the process of people's participation in the Iranian revolution, it is impossible to get a clear understanding of this great phenomenon of the 20th century.
