The Rote of Identity in Formation of Iranian Razm (Bottle) and Impact of it on Future War

This article offers an epistemological analysis of the identity of Iranian warrior and its effect on the future war. Iranian combat embodies characteristic features such as monotheism, prominence of dichotomy of the good and the evil, resurrectionism, martyrdom, and patriotism. These features stem from Iranian-Islamic identity, which has a special and amazing effect on future wars. Since the basic reliance is on technology and human in the future war, and there will probably be a serious gap between our enemy and us, the major agent of the war i.e. human will be important. With the significance of a human agent, the duality of identity-strangeness is formulated. The rapid evolutions in technology and the globalization of culture and politics have spread their heavy shadow on the pattern of future war; therefore, other features of future war are ambiguity and concealment. This article explains the role of identity in the future war. First, "identity" will be defined and recognized and then, the traits of Iranian combat that stem from Iranian-Islamic identity are described. Identity is the point of strength in Iranian combat. Since the phenomenon of war is the down-falling confrontation of identity and strangeness (as the enemy), identity acquires evident importance. This article introduces a noteworthy method for the recognition of the pattern of Iranian combat in the future war by offering a methodological reconstruction of identifying elements of Iranian combat. In this reconstruction, the analysis of the righteous identity of Iranian combat and its effect on the future war is emphasized.
