In the elementary school textbooks published between 1925-1941, a narrative of the history of the Parthians in Iran has been formulated, which has significant discourse and ideological aspects. Accordingly, the students were exposed to a newly-crafted narrative of the ancient history of Iran in which the rise of the Sasanians was like the victory of light over darkness, and nationalism over xenophilia. In this narrative, not only were the Parthians not considered as Iranian, but there was also a kind of domination of non-Iranian spirit over the Iranian identity, which was terminated by the rise of the Sassanids, and thus a period of national salvation began. The main question of the present research is that which discourse and ideological contexts influenced the dominant narrative in the mentioned texts and turned it into an anti-Parthian narrative, and on the contrary, the Sassanians became known as the saviors of Iran from darkness and ruin? The hypothesis is that ideological requirements, legitimizing requirements as well as the strengthening of a sense of nationalism among elementary school children led to the emergence of a narrative, the focus of which was denial, humiliation and trying to abandon the Parthian heritage.

During the Qajar era, criticizing traditional education in Iran, scholars have sought to change the method of education, its contents and materials .These changes were achieved through educational planning and writing textbooks for new educational materials. Under the influence of modernization in the country, educational planning, materials, and textbooks changed in the modern schools of Mazandaran. In this research, changes in the development of educational programs and materials have been studied using historical documents and reliable sources. According to the recently discovered documents, Mazandaran schools in the early years of their establishment used the educational curriculum and textbooks taught in Tehran schools; while after the establishment of the Ministry of Education and the approval of the Education Constitution, they gradually followed the ministry’s program. These documents show that the ecological, climatic and geographical situation of Mazandaran have been influential in school planning.

One of the main goals of religious education is to transfer the knowledge of religion, to develop and make students religious. In achieving these goals, the textbooks and teachings contained in it have a special place. Examining how religious propositions formulated in textbooks can be a criterion for evaluating the manifestations of religiosity in these texts. Since the measurement of religiosity is one of the main concerns of researchers in the field of religion, so the present article tries to examine the position of the dimensions of religiosity in these works by conducting a case study in the textbooks of Shar‘iyāt during the first Pahlavi period and the first decade of the second Pahlavi. The theoretical foundations of this paper are based on the views of Glock and Stark on the dimensions of religiosity. The findings of this study indicate the dominance of the ritual dimension of religion in the book of Shar‘iyāt of the second to sixth grades during the years 1306-1310 ASH and the combination of the intellectual and consequential dimension in 1317. However, in the book of Ta‘līmāt-e Dīnī (Religious Teachings) of the second grade in 1328  ASH, due to the reliance of the topics of this book on rational arguments, the empirical and doctrinal dimension of religiosity has a prominent effect.

s an signification issue and objective experience at the same time, security is the basic pillar of formation of human societies and individual identities in society. The individual identity in human societies are not possible without determining the meaning of "who we are" which is derived from the past. Therefore there is a conceptual coherence between security, identity and the past. in the globalization era and nation-state security system, security studies have transcended from realist approach based on national security i.e. state security and propounded "societal security" based on the security of identities. The main problem o this article is to illustrate the significance of recognizing the relationship between security and identity and past narrations in new approaches, and at the same time, it examines the strategic significance of teaching Iranian history in internalizing cultural and social values of national identity in relation with national security. on this basis, i have tried to illustrate the meaning represented from this kind of narrating the past under security and national security by genealogy of the position of history as past in constructing political identities of pre-modern and modern states in Iran which reduced it to "state security" hence denied the possibility of forming and continuing reinforcing concepts for understanding "societal security" in the institution authorized for establishing order and security in sovereignty. Accepting the duality of order/disorder and authority/anarchy as the historical reality of Iranian society has established this mechanism of marginalizing in direction of making state as the guardian of security and reducing the concept of national security to state security.
