Abstract

This paper aims to consider the social conditions of Iranian society, which is experiencing a twenty-nine-year post-revolutionary period, since 1978. It is a comparative interpretation between a generally modern society and an increasingly modernizing society, such as Iran. Also, it is intended to study the congruity and adequacy of such a modernizing revolutionary society with a certain form of social prevalence of religion as a dominant tradition. In relation to the social presence of religious view (ommission of religion), privatization of religion, conditional presence of religion, and domination of religion in the society as a supra-institution. The concepts used in this article have borrowed from a theologian (Charles Davis) and two sociologists (Peter Berger and Daniel Hervieu-lege). The consequences of SACRED SOCIETY are the most important consideration of the article. Post-revolutionary Iran came to pass some transformations such as SOCIAL PLURALITY and multiplicity of value systems. Result of this position is crisis of religious socialization. For this reason, author argues that realization of SACRED SOCIETY is not possible. In the other words, it is not proper the situation for continuity of a SACRED SOCIETY. It means social end of SACRED SOCIETY, but not its political end. Alternative option is a pluralist society. In a pluralist society, religion may play a main part with the other ideologies. SACRED SOCIETY is futureless in post-revolutionary Iran.
