Abstract

The present article entitled "The Necessity of Active Resistance in the Foreign Policy of the Islamic Republic of Iran" is in fact an attempt to explain and prove the necessity of continuing the principle of resistance in the foreign policy of the Islamic Republic of Iran. "Resistance" is an inherent element of the identity of the Islamic Revolution. This concept has been a cause and direction in the emergence of the Islamic Revolution and has played a key role in its continuation and promotion. The aim of this research is to gain an understanding of the status and degree of discourse of governments to the value and degree of adherence of governments by searching,focusing, and measuring the coordinates of the position of resistance in the value and principled concept of the Islamic Revolution Thought . It also tries to examine the reason for the importance of resistance And by studying traditional and modern threats, it is necessary to identify active resistance as a strategy. In the first part of the article, the principles and background of the necessity of a resistance-oriented view in the foreign policy of the Islamic Republic of Iran and the foreign policy discourses of the Islamic Republic of Iran from the beginning of the revolution until now are discussed In the second part, the threats related to the foreign policy of the Islamic Republic of Iran are examined. A case study has also been conducted on the FATF as an international regime with internal consequences. It should be noted that for data collection and analysis in this study, the library method and written documents have been used.
