Abstract

Aggression and aggrandizement have been the beginning of countless oppression and crimes throughout human life. Accessing and using power resources without regard to moral and human frameworks has formed the equation of the oppressor and the oppressed. Internal exploitation and external colonialism have been an undesirable duality for non-Western societies over the past two centuries. Resistance to oppression has been the result of human nature, rationality, religion, etc., although this resistance has not been sufficiently effective and fruitful for various reasons. Ayatollah Khamenei has outlined the content and functional framework of resistance throughout his leadership. Therefore, this research attempts to answer the question using the method of content analysis: What are the rational and narrative foundations of popular resistance in Ayatollah Khamenei's intellectual system? The findings of the research have shown that Ayatollah Khamenei has explained the traditional and rational foundations of resistance by citing verses of the Holy Quran and emphasizing rules such as negating the moustache, jihad, helping the oppressed, confronting oppression, etc., and rational foundations such as honor, wisdom, and expediency.
