Analysis

Sociologists study the slogans of a revolution to study things such as the opinions of the revolutionizing society about the ruling regime, the reasons for opposing it, the reasons for following certain revolutionary leaders, the ideals and beliefs of the revolutionary people, and their desired perfection in the foundation of the new system. [1]

According to Ahmad Salamatian, an expert on Iranian political issues and a representative of the first period of the parliament of Iran after the 1979 revolution, Iranian society has an oral culture that poetry is very important in it; Therefore, poems are significantly present in every collective activity in Iran. According to Abbas Abdi, an Iranian political activists, the issue of political independence, the interference of foreigners and Mohammad Reza Shah's dependence on them was a key issue in the Iranian revolution that was also manifested in the slogans; But the combination of these things with freedom and the Islamic republic was formed gradually. According to Ebrahim Nabavi, slogans of the Iranian revolution were formed in two time periods. According to him, "It seems that since the fall of 1978, there is some order in the slogans and they are thoughtful, but before that, for example, in the demonstrations held by student groups until October and November of 1978, most of the slogans were against the government, the king and tyranny, but the name of Ruhollah Khomeini and the emphasis on the Islamic aspect of the revolution were mentioned in the slogans since the end of 1978, that is, when the leaders of the revolution and the groups that organized the revolution were registering the revolution document in their name." [2]

Farrokh Negahdar, one of the leaders of the left-wing groups opposed to the Shah, says, "The large participation of people from all groups in the revolutionary gatherings was a prominent feature of the days before the victory of the Iranian revolution, but there was a kind of exclusivity and the supporters of Ruhollah Khomeini did not allow other groups to demonstrate in the streets with their own slogans." But Abbas Abdi believes that the slogans of the leftists did not appeal to the public and were not usually spread among the people. Ahmad Salamatian believes that because the various stages of the revolution's peak coincided with religious occasions, the slogans that were given in religious ceremonies such as Ashura, although they were only political, kept the religious structure of these ceremonies. He also believes that before and after the victory of the revolution, the placards of demonstrators and their slogans have a noticeable difference: Before the victory of the revolution, in the placards of various groups and factions, the photos of Mohammad Mosaddegh, Ali Shariati or the photos of the victims of repression can be seen, but after the victory of revolution, only the photo of Ruhollah Khomeini and large religious placards and flags remained.
