The Anthropological Foundations of Imam Khomeini's Political Life Style

The political life style is: "The ways of dealing with the most important tasks in order to achieve the goals of the political life". Imam Khomeini is a contemporary charismatic character who is a moralist and a style owner, and his remarkable effort to bring about the Islamic Revolution and its leadership has provided a suitable basis for examining his political lifestyle. Considering the formation of style from its unique foundations as well as the important role of anthropology in drawing political life style, the main issue of this research is to study the most important anthropological foundations of Imam Khomeini and their impact on his political life style. This descriptive-analytic study investigates the works left by Imam Khomeini. Research findings show that in the political lifestyle of Imam Khomeini, ways of dealing with political tasks - such as promoting justice, combating cruelty, increasing insight into the illegitimacy of the Pahlavi system, etc. - rely on the basics of anthropology, such as the divine nature of man, the limitlessness of man in terms of the emergence of perfection, the power of man to determine the fate and priority of the Hereafter's life over worldly life.
