Iranian Mongolology and its Relationship with the Two Branches of Marxist and Western Mongolology in Pahlavi Historiography
Iranian Mongolology, along with the Marxist and European Mongol studies branch, formed the triple formulation of Pahlavi Mongolism. In the meantime, Iranian Mongolology, due to differences in methodological foundations and different analytical insights, as well as its connection with the discourse-ideological structure of the Pahlavi period, offered a special type of Mongolology that had several important characteristics. : Lack of reliance on the foundations of a coherent methodology, lack of analytical approaches based on theoretical-conceptual foundations, its connection with nationalist discourse, the prevalence of Iranian-oriented and sometimes Iran-oriented tendencies and domination The elitist approach in it. Influenced by these characteristics, Iranian Mongolology was linked to a larger ideological discourse, and its narrative of the history of the Mongol era was centered around the grand narrative of Iran's cultural resurrection. Based on this situation, the hypothesis of this research is based on the claim that Iranian Mongolology, in relation to its two branches of contemporary Mongol studies, could not open new horizons in this branch of study, but history succeeded. Iran narrates the Mongol era as a golden age and proudly strengthens the ideological discourse of the Pahlavi period by centralizing the theory of cultural resurrection and the continuation of Iranian identity. In this research, an attempt is made to measure the validity of this hypothesis in an analytical way.
