Background: This article sought to assess social disorder and respond to questions such as: Is “social collapse” an appropriate term to describe the situation in Iranian society facing various social problems? If this concept is not appropriate, then what is the appropriate concept? How should this situation be explained?
Methods: This theoretical-analytical study collected data using the library research method.
Results: According to our results, the concept of social collapse is an inaccurate and unscientific one. Basically because this concept cannot fully explain the status of the Iranian society. The proper concept to describe this term is” social disorder”. Unfortunately, Iran is faced with a gamut of disorders all of which are manifested in the various subsystems of the society; these situations generally stem from an ideological view towards Iranians and social culture, homogenizing cultural policies, institutional conflicts, liberalization of economic spheres and their inconsistency when compared with the logic inherent to other social spheres. The role foreign (international) bodies play in the emergence of such situations should not be ignored: and it should suffice that past few decades were testament to this issue which manifested in imposing various forms of sanctions against Iran by foreign bodies .
Conclusion: Overcoming social disorders and creating balance in the social system requiresthe implementation of macro-level policy-making in various areas of the governing system |
