Abstract
The present study, based on the assumption that the foreign policy of the Islamic Republic of Iran can not be interpreted, explained and studied only with materialistic and objectivist approaches, seeks to analyze the role of the intersubjective concept of "ideas of national identity" in the formation and formation The foreign policy of the Islamic Republic of Iran - in the period under review - is. For this purpose, Iran's national identity has been deeply thought out in the context of its three cultural components, namely Islam, Iranianness and modernity, and its impact on Iran's foreign policy between 1368-1392 has been studied in the form of constructivist theory. Therefore, the main question of the research is what role has the three cultural components of national identity played in the formation and formation of the foreign policy of the Islamic Republic of Iran (2013-2014)? The work hypothesis has been formulated in such a way that it seems that the cultural components of national identity are the basis of the development of the foreign policy of the Islamic Republic of Iran in the period under study. In this regard, the present study has tried to show that intersubjective ideas in the study of foreign policy of the Islamic Republic of Iran are not found only in specific components of identity, but also within the national identity, contradictory identities and paradoxes in the development of foreign policy. Islamic Iran has a great role to play.
