Abstract

Investigating the Theoretical Foundations of Islamic Resistance Cores In the Discourse of the Islamic Revolution

The spread of the Islamic Revolution outside Iran's geographical boundaries has been one of the most important issues discussed by analysts and experts since the victory of the Islamic Revolution. In the meantime, one of the patterns implemented for this export has been the formation and support of the Islamic Resistance Corps, which can be seen in the examples of the Lebanese Hezbollah movement, some Palestinian Islamic resistance groups, and so on. In this article, by introducing the Islamic resistance cells, the background of the liberation movements in the world and their theories are discussed and based on the discourse of the Islamic Revolution (Imam Khomeini and Ayatollah Khamenei's ideas), the theoretical foundations of the formation of Islamic resistance cells are discussed. Accordingly, the components forming the intellectual foundations of these cores are extracted and regulated.

The history of the Resistance Cores as liberation movements extends over a wide period of history. So it may not be possible to set a precise date for this kind of action. From a long time ago, at a geographical point, when all the inhabitants of that land were dissatisfied with the ruling power, they tried to express their opposition to the various open and covert actions and took violent actions.
