The Impact of Iranian Culture on Political Development

The study of the political culture of different societies shows the readiness of these societies to find ways of governing in democratic or authoritarian ways. In this article, we want to address the important and fundamental issue of how Iran's political development in the form of one of the cultural dimensions of Iran's national identity, namely "Iranianness", leads to define, recover, pursue and ultimately specific results. In fact, the main question is, what factors and components as obstacles to Iranian culture are influential in the political development of Iran? In response, it should be said that the structure of tribal or mechanical society, short-term society, seeking stability, secrecy, self-centeredness and limited political subordination in Iranian society in Iranian political culture has led to lack of political development in this country. By enumerating the various components of political culture and examining and explaining them in this article, it seems that the main factor in convergence and divergence and not reaching the ideal society is welfare-material type and occasional departure from the revolutionary ideals and values ​​of Islamic Iran. And it is the structures of culture that have influenced other structures as well.
