Abstract

The issue of citizenship and relevant rights constitute one of the most critical issues of the new age public domains which has involved almost all nations. The spread of globalization and development of demanding social forces have increased the significance of this issue. This article is descriptive-analytical and uses a library method. The citizenship of the globalized age has, on the one hand, involved domestic demands, and, on the other hand, transformed trans-national demands into sub-national issues, consistent with global demands. The main question of this article is: What challenges has globalization brought about for the Islamic Revolution discourses and the Judiciary, considering the citizenship rights theory? The research theory states that Iran is also subjected to the waves of globalization and this phenomenon has affected citizenship rights, thus causing challenges for the Judiciary and the Islamic Revolution discourse. Results from this article show that the Judiciary needs to have a more resilient interaction through its social context against the challenges arising from globalization in the area of citizenship rights domain, and to resolve these novel issues by relying on the dynamic capacity of the Shia jurisprudence.
