Title

Critic of a temperamental explanation

Pages

  257-278

Abstract

 In the past and present, among Iranians and foreigners, there were people who, based on their observations, have written about the Iranian temperament. Those judgments, which were mostly negative, gradually constituted an explanatory matric, in a way that, in accounting many bad circumstances in Iran and many of Iranian unpleasant habits and behavioral imperfections, it has been said that they derived from Iranian temperament or Iran’ s culture. About how scientific are observational propositions such as “ Iranians have this or that quality” , and explanatory propositions such as “ this or that quality or behavior is the effect of this or that temperament” there are some critical discussions, especially concerning inexactness of some generalizations as well as some probable dangers of the acceptance of such judgments. This article is to criticize this kind of proposition from an analytical point of view. I will demonstrate that the difficulty of the explication why, means by what cause, Iranian has those qualities, returns to the fact that the main problematic is not to demonstrate their prevalence among Iranians, but their absence or secrecy among non-Iranians. The hypothesis is that most of the cases known as Iranians temperaments, to the extent that they can accept as Iranians temperaments, have not for their cause the content of Iranian culture but its level. And the level of culture is not something special to Iranians, it can be found in many nations, and everywhere it introduces almost the same temperament.
