The present paper is an attempt to reinterpret the concept of West-toxication as explained by Jalal Al-e Ahmad by relying on the concept of Bakhtin’s dialogism with self and other to offer a new interpretation of this concept. Besides, through this research the applicability of the concept of self and other dialogism is also measured and through such measurement it will be shown how dialogism can be used as a method and theory for interpretation and hermeneutics of a text which is interpreted differently through other methods. Bakhtin’s dialogism is achieved through three aspects: self, other and dialogue with the self and other. Through this theoretical tool, in the first place, it is argued that first of all, Al-e Ahmad had to look at the other for self-knowledge in the form of existence. Secondly, the customary perception of Al-e Ahmad, as an anti-Western thinker is not a perfect perception. Through using theory of Bakhtin’s dialogism, one can conclude that Al-e Ahmad more than being against the West, protests the kind of tarnished, unequal dialogue and relationship between the East and the West. His suggests that the East should become a player and create an equal dialogue. This is possible through the concept of originality.

A considerable part of the current thought has allocated to various debates on the “globalization age” and “Different Globalizations”. Globalization as a phenomenon which has tightened social, cultural and political relations is deepening and expanding in a daily manner. Despite of this generalism, a kind of exceptionalism in form localist theories has been remarked in the globalization context. The authors’ hypothesis is that, localism in its different epistemological, political and historical aspects has serious conflictions with globalization (e.g. continuation of modernity). The paper will survey the notion of globalization, its consequences and concept of localism; then to examine the author’s hypothesis, paradoxes of localism theory will be explained. The approach of the paper is descriptive-analytical.

For quite a long time, the elites, the scientists, and theoreticians have been busy trying to find out more about the civilized society. Among all those who have touched the issue we can name Plato, Aristotle, Augustine, Farebi, John Lock, and Jean Jacques Rousseu. What is the civilized society, indeed? What are its proportions?

The present work will have the following results a scientific familiarity with Imam's Islamic insight in answering the above questions, presenting his guidelines for the oppressed muslim nations and communities for saving themselves from backwardness, and suggesting some important questions for future research.
