Abstract :

The statement of the second step of the Islamic Revolution, written and issued by the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Republic of Iran, Ayatollah Khamenei, on the 40th anniversary of the victory of the Revolution, has the necessary features of a discourse-building text as one of the mother and upstream documents about the Islamic Revolution. We show that the internal logic of the discourse governing this statement is neither completely idealistic from the point of view of a political and ideological leader and ideologue nor completely realistic from the point of view of a leader and supreme leader of the political system of the Islamic Republic. But also in all parts of the statement; The interactive and integrated logic between realism and idealism approaches can be observed and traced.In this articleWhile identifying the components of a discourse such as central slab, elements, floating slab, meanings, equivalence chains and counter-discourses, discourse reading of the statement, realistic and idealistic components presented in the statement in the framework of statistical discourse theory and research And finally we showed that the most important role in the continuation of the Islamic Revolution is played by the dynamics of its discourse in competition with rival and hostile discourses
