TY - JOUR T1 - The testability of the theory of Rantier State about the Islamic revolutions in the World (Case study: Iran and Egypt) TT - آزمون‌پذیری نظریه دولت رانتیر در انقلاب های جهان اسلام ( مطالعه موردی ایران و مصر ) JF - priw JO - priw VL - 8 IS - 2 UR - http://priw.ir/article-1-801-en.html Y1 - 2018 SP - 49 EP - 80 KW - Skocpol theory KW - Islamic revolution of Iran KW - Egyptian revolution N2 - The structural look at explaining the occurrence of revolutions within the framework of revolutionary theory is one of the most important approaches of researchers to the field of revolutionary studies. With the advent of the Islamic Revolution in Iran, these scholars revised their vision towards their theories to Iran's revolution. One of the most prominent of these scholars in this approach is Theda Skocpol, who introduced the theory of Rantier government and Shiite Islam about the Islamic Revolution of Iran. Therefore, the purpose of the article is to "compare the Islamic Revolution of Iran (1979) and the Egyptian revolution (2011)" based on the Skocpol theory model. This paper seeks to answer the question of whether Skocpol theory can explain the Iranian and Egyptian revolution simultaneously. The results suggest that based on Skocpol theory the Egyptian revolution in some area is consistent with the Iranian revolution and in some respects there are significant differences, so based on these differences, the Egyptian revolution could not pass the Islamic Revolutionary circuit and become a social revolution.
