Abstract

The main concern of this article is to present an ideological and methodical approach with a critical approach to the political thought of the founders of the People's Mojahedin Khalq Organization and the application of Spriggans theory in the analysis of political thought. The present article tries to theoretically organize the stages of problemology, etiology, idealism and solutionology in the political thought of the People's Mojahedin Khalq Organization. In order to understand the political thoughts of the founders of the People's Mojahedin Khalq Organization, we will benefit from the philosophical approach of internal logic. Based on internal logic, in order to understand any seeker, one must understand exactly its thought processes. In fact, from this point of view, to understand any method of research and especially political theories, active, alive and historically growing thinking, which have concepts, collective and general benefit in their framework, should be taken into consideration. According to the findings of the research, the main problem of Iranian society according to the founders of the organization was internal tyranny and foreign colonialism; The intellectual and religious decline of the Iranian people are the main causes that have caused such problems; The ideal ideal to eliminate problems is ideal state building after the fall of the imperial system; And finally, they declare that the only way to overthrow the Pahlavi regime and dismantle internal tyranny and foreign colonialism is an armed uprising.
