“Advice Paradigm, Iranian Thought Beyond Decline and Continuity”, the book of Iranian thought strives to combine the writings of the ancient and Islamic periods in a single pattern; includes and analyzes “the two dilemmas” and “the four implications”. The question is what the model of the authors of the paradigm of advice is; for explaining the epistles of Iranian history and to what extent it is sufficient for the theoretical studies of this group of historical sources? The findings of the research, which have been done using a critical approach and the historical explanation method, show that the basis of the ideas of the book is based on a predetermined framework, and is influenced by the reproduced Iranshahri theory of the contemporary period. In a critical evaluation, what is expected is the possibility of proposing a different model for reading the texts of the Political Epistles.

Javad Tabatabai’s intellectual project has been based on two main axes of the decline of political thought in Iran for the past three decades and in recent decades around the axis of Iranshahri thought. Tabatabai is one of the few writers who has used concepts to explain the history of political thought in Iran within a regular intellectual system, but the scope of his project has caused that not all the themes of Iranshahri political thought have been clearly outlined and studied. This article is an attempt to give a brief description of Tabatabai’s latest work and its important issues such as the position of the First Constitutional Assembly, the concept of tradition, the need to distinguish between nationalism and the Iranian idea, and a reflection on his views, especially on the relationship between his views and issues, contemporary Iran and its criticisms of contemporary intellectuals. The authors argue that although the legacy of ancient Iran is important and significant, without the reconstruction of the classical ideas that are called Iranshahri thought due to Tabatabai's own efforts nowadays, these ideas will remain in a state of ambiguity.
