Epistemic systems and protective belt of Iranian foreign policy

Thoughts are strategic; that is, if the mind can understand the conditions of its time and enter into power struggles by elites with socially available concepts, it can form an epistemic system that influences the facts. Foreign policy in most countries in the world has epistemic systems; that is, foreign policy actions refer to an epistemic logic, structure and package that is not so obvious. Each epistemic system has fundamentals, scholars, schools, concepts, sponsoring countries, implications, and, ultimately, analysis that helps analyze and highlight the strengths and weaknesses of foreign policy. In this paper, we examine Iran's foreign policy using a theoretical framework derived from a combination of the theories of Cohen's paradigm, the epistemic belts of Lakatos, Aparatus Althusser, and Foucault's epistemic. The question is, what kind of epistemic systems does Iran's foreign policy have and what systems did they intend to form around Iran? In this article, five Shiite, Islamic, revolutionary, national, modern and postmodern epistemological systems will be examined and each of them will analyze the foundations, institutions, consequences and applied pathology of Iranian foreign policy
