The Process of Inclination Towards Revolution in Imam Khomeiniʹs Thought.

Undoubtedly the Shiite political thought during the era of occupation of the Infallible Imam has faced practical difficulties and theoretical shortcomings in its endeavor to lay the theoretical foundations of a religious government or launch a political revolution. The present article discusses this issue by studying the shortcomings as well as the political reflections of the Shiite political scholars and pays particular attention to various stages of its evolution and transformation until the emergence of Imam Khomeini. The author believes that Imam Khomeiniʹs political thought until the beginning of 1960s was the continuation of the theoretical approach of his predecessors to the issue of government, but Imam endeavored to establish a religious society irrespective of the form and configuration of its government system. Finally by discussing the reasons for the transformation of Imamʹs political thought from a religious society to a religious government, the present article studies the reasons for the confrontation of Imam Khomeini with the established system. Imam Khhomeiniʹs theory of Guardianship of Jurisprudent was in fact a theory of revolution. The article also discusses practical strategies for revolution in Imam Khomeiniʹs viewpoint.
