Abstract
In most of the researches of Shia political thought in the contemporary period, there has been talk about changes in form and format in the way of dealing with the matter of politics. The revolutionary movement of the Iranian people led by the clergy, and then the formation of the Islamic government based on Islamic teachings and goals, created a turning point in Shia political thought in terms of the type and nature of opinion and action. If we analyze the interaction of scholars with the Safavid and Qajar governments in the framework of classical Shia political thought, the type of their encounter with revolutionary movements and the government of the Islamic Republic can be categorized in the framework of contemporary Shia thought. This duality can be seen both in the form of confrontation with the governments and in the basic concepts.In this article, with a brief reference to the formal developments of Shia political thought from the Safavid period to the Islamic Republic, it describes the implications that distinguish contemporary Shia political thought from its past period. These implications include changes in the concept of politics, expectations from religion, the duties of scholars, the necessity of forming a religious government, turning government into an obligatory prelude, changes in the perception of interference in politics, and changes in political literature.
