이란의 이슬람 혁명과 소수 종교의 관계 연구

A Study on the Relationship between Iran’s Islamic Revolution and Religious Minorities

According to the world factbook of CIA in 2018, 99.4% (90-95% of Shiites, 5-10% of Sunnis) were Muslims, 0.3% were minorities and 0.4% were unspecified religions in Iran. The Islamic Republic of Iran is a political system established by the Islamic Revolution in 1979. The official religion is Shi a Islam. The Islamic Republic of Iran was established on the basis of Khomeini s Velayat-e Faqih (Islamic Jurist) and based on this, the Iranian Constitution was enacted. According to the Iranian law, the Supreme Leader must be both the supreme leader of Iran and a Shiite jurist. The president of Iran must also be a Shi ite Muslim. In this paper, The identity of the state will be reviewed through the current status of religious minorities as well as social underprivileged in Iran. To do this, I will first analyze the Islamic revolution and the Iranian identity debate, and examine the Iranian Constitution to analyze religious minorities issues in it. I would like to identify the problems faced by religious minorities through the religious minorities policy of the Islamic Republic of Iran.
