The Dimensions of Iranian Identity in the Process of Globalization (case study of Islamist dimension)
Abstract
In the current context of globalization, in which various titles impose their presence on the cultures and identities of the nations, identities, however strong they are, become fragile. In this descriptive-analytical method and library research method, we seek to answer the main question which features of Islamic identity of Iranians in the face of globalization process. In the hypothesis, we have pointed out that Iranian multidimensional identity, including ancient Iran, Islamic-Shiite and modern identity, has undergone tremendous changes in the process of globalization and faces numerous challenges and opportunities. In the meantime, the Islamic identity of Iranians after the Islamic Revolution has gained particular prominence in the form of the predominant ideological and scholarly discourse of Islamism and Shi'aism, which, in the process of globalization, must prepare itself to face it and rely on rich cultural heritage in addition to By preserving its identity, using the tools derived from global culture, it seeks to globalize it, and, with the importance of all aspects of its identity in the twenty-first century, the need for all of its diverse dimensions is felt. And Islamic identity of Iranians must be reconciled with the process of globalization and the rapid development of the present century in order to meet the needs of the new generation of Iranian people.
