A Study on Iranian Cultural Identity and Its transformations From the perspective of the scholars and people, in the Past half century

 In this article, we seek to properly understand the common identity of Iranians and try to find out what cultural changes have embraced the popular mood of Iranian identity. In this study, the qualitative research method is based on the documentary analysis. The statistical population consists of existing documents selected via purposeful sampling method. The sample size has been more than 250 pages in cyberspace published by experts in the field of cultural identity in Iran in different years from 1345 to 1397. Data analysis was continuously carried out through a continuously repeated strategy to achieve saturation of concepts.  Iranians are known for the characteristics which in most cases are not based on scientific studies. According to the findings of this study, it is impossible to discuss a constant identity for Iranian people. People and intellectuals do not agree on a specific cultural identity in Iran. The findings of this study show that modern Iranians are more fatalist and isolated from before, and at the same time, they dislike laziness and judgment without thought. Given Iran's 20-year vision document and the high visibility of Iranians in the international sphere, isolation in Iranian identity is likely to cause more independence in the future, but more efforts are needed by officials to reduce ethnic pluralism.
