Abstract

The Islamic Republic’s Policies


towards Social Diversities Management


Dr. Yousof Torabi


Effective features such as the non- immigrating nature of Iranian racial and ethnic groups, constancy of the number of these as a result of non- expansionism, sharing ancient characteristics, absence of split in national unity and the formation of the nation prior to the rise of nationalism, have all contributed to the persistence of social diversities. The Islamic Republic of Iran’s policies on managing these social diversities and boosting national unity are being formulated on the basis of "religious unitarian pluralism". In other words, these policies are being institutionalized in a process of internal and external challenges while benefiting from a rationalistic approach. The religious and ethnic split can only be diminished by taking advantage of the legal potential of the constitutional and civil laws, as well as Quranic instructions, and taking into consideration the requirements of the Iranian society.
