Despite of extensive development of IR research in Iran, there is a lack of burgeoning literature focusing on International Relations per se. It is common to see IR as the timeless scientific schools and theories rather than scientific discourses which are constructed in the peculiar contexts. The article is aimed to examine contextuality of hegemonic IR knowledge in relation to the United States’ foreign policy in G. Bush era. The article seeks to ask how IR discursive developments are affected by US foreign policy. In other words, relationship between US foreign policy and IR knowledge in post-cold war era is under scrutiny. Using Discourse Analysis as its method, and analyzing selective texts, article shows that there is a meaningful discursive correspondence between IR dominated knowledge and US foreign policy in G. Bush era. Corresponding contextualities, dichotomies and core propositions demonstrate how these texts are mutually constituted.
