Political training in the field of education from the perspective of the Imams of the Islamic Revolution

The purpose of the present research is to study the term of political upbringing as a speech-hermeneutic act in the ideas of Imām Khomeyni and Āyatollāh Khāmene'i within the educational realm emphasizing on the role of teachers. Undoubtedly, speech act is for the purpose of making a change in the realm of act and so different situations and backgrounds are effective on the orientation of words. The research method is based on the theory of speech act and Skinner's hermeneutics (1978) following the theories of John Searle (1962), Wittgenstein (1994), and John Austin (1975) which all have a special emphasis on the intention of the author. The meaning of text in this research is a general overview involving books, dissertations, speeches, symbols, and so on. The present research, on the one hand, can clarify different aspects of political upbringing for students and students-teachers and, on the other hand, assist the officials of the educational system in planning in the country. The results showed that the speech act of Imām Khomeyni in the concept of political upbringing is adopted based on up-to-date conditions, Islamic-religious principles, and also their accompanying terms such as fighting, science along with spirituality, monotheism, faithfulness, religiosity, revolutionary spirit, and independence. Likewise, political education in the words of the supreme leader is associated with some major categories in the second step of the revolution, Islamic modern civilization, Islamic government, believer and revolutionary forces, Jihādi management, culture and politics, science and morality and therefore specifies the path of revolution in this field.
