In the history of India, Iran and Islamic countries Kalile va Demne is important in many aspects. In this work, the attitude toward human being and society in the pre-enlightenment era has been greatly reflected. In spite of superficial coherence, this work contains different layers and the role of three great oriental civilizations, that is, India, Iran and Arab can be observed in it. Most of Kalile va Demneʹs characters are beast and the style of the work is allegorical. The author uses this method to avoid political consequences. A great number of tales are about politics and political culture in oriental society (Iran, India and Islamic world). By analyzing this text the structure of political culture and its influence on individual and social behaviors can be discovered.
