Abstract
The Russia Revolution led by Vladimir Lenin in 1917and the Islamic Revolution of Iran led by Imam Khomeini in 1979 sat down and like most of revolutions, included the export of the revolution in the agenda of the revolutionar leaders. There been many similarities and dissimilarities between two revolution in terms of the mechanisms of the export of the revolution. To understand these differences and similarities, we employ a constructivist approach in understanding the means, notions, rules, norms and practices of the export of revolution as a developmental intellectual factors and material dynamics. With a constructivist look, especially from the point of view of the holistic constructivists, we understand that the Iranian Revolution and the Russian Revolution have similar features especially in the area of advertising, supporting of the liberation and anti- capitalist movements, taking advantage of public diplomacy and the use the model of revolution as an example. But they have major differences. Whereas the Russian revolutionaries tended to employ physical instruments, war and occupation of land, supporting of communist parties all around the world, the Iranian revolutionaries promoted the discourse of Shiite resistance and more generally used religious elements through sending missionaries and propagating religious rituals in all across the Muslim world
