Reviewing the theory of clash of civilizations Based on Middle East evolutions in last two decades

After ending the cold war¡ the identity boundaries of nations that are specified based on the dependence on one of the political and ideological poles or independence on them ¡ have been changed and the role and importance of culture in identity finding process of nations have turned out to be more prominent . While the identity boundaries in the past were specified in terms of political¡ ideological and economic indexes¡ gradually the identity boundaries were formed based on cultural indexes and civilizational and cultural identity were determined as a distinguishing basis of political units. This paper seeks to specify the argument of contrast inside and outside of civilization in recent years based on the theory of clash of civilizations. The result of this paper confirms this assumption that in new circumstances¡ the one-sided process of globalization¡ equally has removed the cultural boundaries of societies and proceed in the direction of westernizing them¡ has caused social groups redefine its identity based on its separation from west and western culture and civilization and increase the rate of west fighting and retreating in cultural and civilizational identity finding process.
