Abstract:   (3829 Views)
The present research, in the framework of critical discourse analysis, examines the citizenship education in discourses after the Islamic Revolution. For this purpose, the texts and documents related to the category of citizenship education in the five periods mentioned by Norman Fairclough, It has been analyzed at three levels: "description of the text", "analyzing the processes of production and interpretation," and "social context explanation". the dominant discourse of citizen education is the discourse of the moral citizen-law-governor who accepts citizenship­ education centered on religion and Islamic law; any discourse with the rejection of previous discourse and agenda-setting and focusing the comments and policies that are targeted, strengthened and established its existence. the post-revolution discourse has not balanced all the categories and indicators of citizenship education. and the represented citizen in these discourses is one-dimensional inventory which in just each period, it has experienced rapid and uneven growth in one aspect. in most cases, the documents examined follow a single-discourse pattern and they are not interested in using elements of rival discourses.
Keywords: Citizenship education, Discourse, Islamic Revolution, Critical Discourse Analysis, Fairclough.
