Abstract:

This article deals with Iranian student political associations at universities. Iranianuniversities, throughout their history, have played an important role in politicalmovements, and their most effective function is related to the triumph of the IslamicRevolution in 1979. But after the Islamic Revolution, the university had to witnessa shift from its revolutionary role to a political one. In this functional shift, studentpolitical associations were organized by a supervisory committee as the representationof Islamic political discourse. Thus, inspired by the Agamben’s lexicon of camp,student political associations can be regarded as a refugee camp (Ramadan, 2013, p.146) in which political students are held and seen as emigrants who have immigratedto the pole of politics. To study this, we explored three important universities inTehran with a significant political background. We interviewed political and nonpoliticalstudents, and conducted field observations as well. Consequently, studentpolitical associations are monitored as a camp in which political students release theirenergy. Also, political students use some parallel spaces, such as social networks orspots close to universities, like parks, to come together and develop political plans.Finally, pursuing ideal objectives, trying to affect others, and feeling a responsibilityare the motivations that make political associations acceptable for political students.
