This paper deals with the cause of the recent signs of US–China strategic rivalry at the regional and international issues. The author focuses on the economic liberalization as a main cause of China's rising competitive tendencies against the US. China has articulated a grand strategy that is based on the idea of peaceful development. Chinese leaders have been seeking to characterize their country as a responsible world power, emphasizing on soft power and diplomacy of peaceful coexistence with the other major powers. But the other side of the coin is that the China's economic rising has been driving its hegemonic ambitions. China tries to achieve regional hegemony in Asia and attempts to push the US away from the region. The economic rise of China appears to be strengthening its global situation. It can lead to intensification of US–China strategic rivalry at global level. It seems that as a result of economic rise, China's foreign policy is becoming more realistic over time.

Some thinkers like Paul Ricoeur, Hannah Arendt and Chantal Mouffe have distincted "Politics" and "the Political" in a manner as if there is a dichotomy and opposition between them. Such standpoints make problem in reading and evaluation of an important part of literature: rhetoric literature and specially rhetoric poetry. This article is based on a study to know that how any change in our conceptin of the relation of "Politics" and "the Political", can impress our understanding of produce and significance of this kind of literature. The poetry of Sohrab Sepehri which usually has been supposed that is a non-political poetry, is a good sample to see that more appropriate definition of "the Political" can result in a better knowing of the political dimension and the place of such poetries in contemporary political societies.

The condition of success and reasons of failure of development strategies and plans, has been one of the most important “development studies” issues. It has been explained in different ways, such as that there is strong relationship between efficiency of development strategies and plans and development theories. paradigmatic-implicative theory, which has explained the relation of development theories and political thought and identify the development theory as one of the practical implication of political thought, one of the conditions of success of development strategies and development plans can refer to the political thought foundation. So we explore the political thought which support the Structural Adjustment model, which is the most important development model in 1980s. We use “qualitative content analysis” method in this paper to show that the political foundation of Structural Adjustment model is based on “libertization through rights protection”, in correspondence with Robert Nozick political thought.

Ideas of Justice and freedom and relation between them are among the most significant and controversial debates in political literature and political thinker's doctrines. This subject has been taken focal place in debates of political scholars in contemporary epoch. How to relate between justice and freedom in public sphere and how to make reasonable balance and equilibrium between them, is the core of disputed and thoughtful political discussions. To restrict liberty in favor of justice or to set limits on justice for the more extensive freedom prevents full development of society. Some thinkers believe that the human values are in contradiction with each other, Therefore justice and freedom are inconsistent with each other. we should always restrict one of them in favor of the other. But some scholars think that human values are consistent, therefore justice and freedom are in congruence with each other. The research explains Shahid Motahhari's point of view about relation between justice and freedom. He is one of the most known and influential contemporary thinkers in Islamic world. The research uses critical analysis method including assessing results and implications of his view about justice and liberty. The conclusion of this research is that in Shahid Motahhari's point of view, there is not any contradiction or inconsistency between justice and liberty. It is not necessary to restrict justice in favor of liberty or to limit liberty to attain more justice. Desired society is a free and just society. Citizens of this society have both freedom and justice together, because justice is giving everybody his due, and liberty is consequence of the concept of right. By realizing justice, liberty is also realized. This research can contribute to understand complementary debates in social and political sciences from religious and Shiite doctrine's point of view.
