Analysis of the Nature of Islamic Revolution by Imam Khomeini and its Significations in the Higher Education

This paper tries to answer this question: if we set the understanding of Imam Khomeini from the Islamic revolution as the norm, what would be the relation between such a norm and the public policy making after the Islamic revolution? In response, by using qualitative content analysis and with interpretative view, we aimed at forming the interpretation of Imam Khomeini and by reviewing some of the public trends to solve the social problems after the Islamic revolution, it is clarified that in explaining the victory of the Islamic revolution, he emphasizes on the element of “Revolutionary Islam” and its influence in creation of a new identity called “Revolutionary Mankind”. From his point of view, these two elements which have cultural nature provided the grounds for “Humanitarian Revolution” and “Islamic Revolution” and have crucial importance in the continuance of the Islamic revolution. According to that, the main trends after the victory of the Islamic revolution are not proposed in the “nation-states” paradigm but in shape of “Ommah-Imamat” framework.
