People are the ones who both create and preserve human
culture. This fundamental activity , however, can sometimes be disorderly, disharmonious,
and sporadic, and, at times, orderly, coherent, planned, and guided.
Whenever, throughout the history of mankind, governments
and formal institutions veered away from people's cultural orientation and followed
their own path of either non-popular and anti-popular cultural policies; and,
in particular, whenever people, for a host of geographical, economic, political,
and psychlogical reasons, cultural ormation and interaction culture would inevitably
tend to loose its desirable and accomplished dynamism, to say nothing of cultural
disruption and discontinuity. Thus, man failed to optimally utilize his cultural
heritage and intellectual potentials, as necessitated by the espirit de corps,
nor did he succeed in tapping his existential resources to the extent possible.
The emergence of man in his C ollective form and character is so important and
effective for that Imam khomeini, may his soul rest in peace, has described it
in the following manner:
" If the blessed word of Allah unifies people, enabling
them to destroy all idols, they will achieve all exalted goals ... Our own experience
demonstrates the fact that whenever we failed to collectively take heed of God,
we could not achieve anything, though we paid heed to Him on an individual basis."
Today the social impact of culture has tremendously priorities,
roots and branches, combining unity in thought and direction with collaboration
and harmony. It is a social pact inspired by ideals and beliefs overseeing experiences
and realities, limited by capacities and existing facilities, orientated towards
the future and short as well as long term-objectives and, at any rate, subsumed
under the constitutional law.
The addressees of the cultural policy and those who are expected
to put it into effect, are in the first place, officials and all cultural centres
and institutions officiated to the government of the Islamic Republic of Iran.
Other individuals and groups are also required, proportionate to their respective
social ranks and roles - and this arises from their social status and from T he
method of their cultural activity, to abide by the provisions of the present chapter
of cultural policy and not to be violator.
The following points must be taken into consideration in
connection with our national cultural policy:
- Cultural policy is the policy of the Islamic Revolution.
That is to say all aspects of individual and social life in our country have been
based on the Islamic culture. Thus, one should not forget that the Islamic Revolution
is indeed a cultural revolution, and that we should spend a major and greater
part, if not all, of our efforts, resources, and capabilities on enhancing, developing,
and revitalizing our culture in all its individual and social aspects.
If we make oral and written assertions to the effect
that ninety percent of solutions to and remedies for our social problems and ailments
are cultural, but in actual fact reverse the ratio by allocating ten percent of
our resources to cultural issues and the remaining ninety percent non-cultural
affairs, then the adoption of a rational cultaral policy will be of no use to
us.
The cultural policy of the Islamic Republic of Iran is
based on Islamic ideology (weltanschaung) and humanitarianism I ncluding the following
concepts and fundamentals:
- Absolute predominance of a monotheistic attitude over all
aspects and arenae of individual and social life, and - fundamental impact and
role in the Islamic society of beleiving in such religious roots and branches
as Revelation, prophethood Imamate, Justice Resurrection, Exoneration, and Amicability.
- Eternity of human existence and his intrinsic venerability
and dignity as the vice-gerent of God and his trustee, with free will and with
reason to shape his own destiny, capable of using his reason and experience to
perpetuate his evolutionary movement.
- The divine nature of man which is the source of his growth,
goodness, and well-being.
- Equality of all men in creation regardless of their skin
colour, race, and social class; universality and comprehensiveness of the Islamic
message inviting human beings to collaborate and cooperate in benefaction and
humanely activities.
- The physical and spiritual nature of man and his capability
of growth and of actualizing his potentialities in all individual and social,
material and moral, corporeal and mental, rational and E motional aspects; and
the interrelation of those aspects.
- Benevolence, perfectionism, idealism, unlimited scientific
capacity of man and his natural tendency towards seience, knowledge, beauty, sanctity,
worship and virtue.
- Proliferation and power of faith in creating spiritual values
and virtues and in developing a sPirit of independence, liberty, and self respect;
and consolidation of humanely relations in the society.
- Educability of man and actualization of his potentialities
and creative afilities in pursuit of founding a monotheistic, justice - loving,
knowledge-seeking society relying on holy war (Jihad) and on practice of religious
jurisorudence (Ejtehad), characterized by moderation and realism, and, also, benefiting
from discussions and exchange of views, and from criticism, scientific investigations
and historical lessons and experiences.
- Essentiality of spiritual virtues and the exalted status
enjoyed by prety, science, and Jihad and virtues in the Islamic society in ranking
men according to their respective dignity and virtue.
- Impressionability of man to positive and negative factors
of social environment and to cultural clamities and impediments, the responsibility
of the Islamic Repulic for purging social E nvironment of all evils, for administration
of justice, and for granting people the right to participate in all social affairs,
taking into account the necessity of eradicating all causes and factors giving
rise to infidelity, hypocrisy, poverty, corruption, oppression, despotism, hegemony,
and arrogance.
- The IDEAS, viewpoints, teachings, and juristic opinions
of Imam khomeini, may his soul rest in peace, which are the bases of the cultural
policy of the Islamic Republic of Iran, serve as the best and most authentic indicator
and representative of the pure Mohammadan Islam and distinguisher thereof from
all other forms of pseudeo - Islams prevailing both in Iran and abroad.
- The semantic domains of the words and terms used in the
present approved text of cultural policy correspond to the religious fundamentals
embodied in Imam's line and funistic approach. If, therefore, there exist here
in some allegorical and ambiguous points, there also exist many clear and definite
statements by reference to which all ambiguities could be removed.
As is the case with his political, economic, and social
ideas, imam's gnostic, cultural, and artistic views will be considered O ur guidelines
and problem solvers and will continue to shed light on our national artistic and
cultural policy. Whatever Imam has said in relation to musics, films, television
serials, sports, and the like will serve our guideposts.
That great mentor's comments on intelletual activities
and culture have been engraved on our souls and hearts:
"Culture is the source of all fortunes and misfortunes
of nations." Release from evil teachings of western culture, the substitution
therefor by our Islamic and national culture, and a cultural revolution in all
aspects of national life require tremendous, life-long efforts. Nobody should
underestimate the danger of the dogmatic clergy and og idiotic pseudo-saints.
In the lslamic Repubic of Iran , except for the cases where Islam and the prestige
of the Islamic system are in jeopardy - and this should be judged by knowledgeable
experts - nobody can impose his personal views on anybody else ... If we manage
to introduce a government system based on non - aligned principles and on pure
Islam devoid of any deception and hypocrisy, then we can claim that our Revolution
is victorious. Culture is the starting point of reforming a country. We hope man
would reach such an A dvanced stage that guns give way to pens, because the latter
have been of service to him much more than the former ... Islam's commendment
as to Jehad (the holy war) ... essentially means that people should defend the
truth and justice and replace guns with them.
One of the most important principles of our glorified
Islam is propaganda, which introduces good deeds encouraging people to perform
them, and which depicts had deeds showing the way to avoid them. Therefore, show
our people and, in particular, our brave youth, the framework of pure Mohammadan
Islam dpicting sacred indignation and revolutionary hatered against capitalism
of the west and aggressive communism of the East, and the say to struggle against
hypocrisy and deception. It should be propagated among alll officials and people,
as an undending principle, that our islamic system means business when it comes
to its objectives, and that in case the Islamic values are in jeopardy, anybody
responsible regardless of his or her social rank and position , will be categorically
treates."
- The constitutional law, as another manifestation of
the vision of the Islamic culture and of the Islamic culture and of I mam's thoughts
and Ideas, inspires and corroborates our cultural policy.
- The provisions of the constitionel law , in particular,
what has been stipulated in the 2nd, as well as, 7th through 30th principles in
connection with culture and the social and political exigencies thereof; in other
words, the directives mentioned in regard to such issues as moral virtues, human
dignity, liberty, independence, human experiences, research and innovation, general
knowledge, public participation, the command to do what is right and the prohibition
of what is wrong, and the like does and will serve as guidelines of the national
culturanl policy.
- Cultural policy, in its general and customery meaning, refers
to a set of goals, fundamentals, priorities , and executive policies , whereas
a more restrictes sense of the phrase specifically refers to executive policies.
