Author

Abstract

In the evolution of human knowledge in the humanities studies arena, subjects like political thought was based on less critical tendencies and was copied and affected by translations of humanities. So, their intellectual, Political and Social foundations are not very strong. Even after Islamic revolution, we can't find any reliable division of works and movements in the field of political thought. How ever, the Production of knowledge and the importance of creating theories, are the Strategic aim of the political system and because of its necessity in the Islamic Society, some elites study in this field. But in spite of appropriate conditions, requirements and changes at the level of social demand, proposing following essential question is welcomed by elites and intellectuals:
Why intellectual stagnation and evolution of thought in contemporary Iran prevent creative and up to date confronting with the concepts and discussions in "political thought?"
