Islamic Revolution: Continuation or Transformation?

The future of Islamic Revolution is a complex subject, and certainly a matter with considerable importance which has been hotly debated by those who support or reject the revolution. The major question is what will happen to Islamic Revolution and how it would develop or meet its obstruction in the future.The author presents a discussion on three current attitudes toward the above questions and analyzes the future, considering a comparative and analytical reasoning based on the current events in Iran. The attitudes include unconditional continuation, unconditional transformation and conditioned continuation of Islamic Revolution. He thoroughly differentiates between Islamic Revolution and Islamic Republic, and stresses the former being associated with unconditional continuation and the latter with conditioned continuation.
