Résumé:This is a discussion of the metaphysical and ontological foundations of the revolutionary thought in Iran and its relations to modernity and issues of individual and civil rights. Shariati's, Khomeini's and Motahhari's discourse can be considered as a step toward the foundation of citizenship rights. It is a transitory discourse of mediated subjectivity with a possibility of transforming itself and society. Whether this transformation will take place depends on whether the elements on the side of universalizable subjectivity (Sorush) or those against it (Davari) take the upper hand. (DÜI-Cls)
