Abstract

Dialogue with Religious Another is one of the important results and events that can be imagined in the field of religion. After the revolution in Iran, some governmental and non-governmental organizations and institutions took this issue on the assumption that there was a history of this type of dialogue in the field of Islamic civilization. Undoubtedly, the representatives of these institutions have gained experience over the years by relying on these conversations to prove Islamic-Shiite identity with other religions, and in particular Catholic Christianity. This qualitative study seeks to answer the question by analyzing the content of the discourses on the subjectivity and experience of these individuals that, essentially, based on the intrinsic approach adopted by the traditional foundationalist, how does one view the religion as another and what is the interpretation of the dialogue with the "other"? Provide. For this purpose, field data were collected through purposeful sampling in a semi-structured interview with 15 actors in this field. The analysis of the themes of the discourse showed that, from a traditional foundationalist perspective, dialogue with another religion prioritized religious equality, embraced religious globalization as a fixed principle in dialogue, and attempted to negotiate another through political-religious legitimacy.
