The topic of women has been one of the most debated in the discourses of contemporary Iranian history, acquiring a unique meaning in each era. These discourses and the conflicts that they contain have significantly influenced her identity. The visibility of these conflicts in social actions is a significant factor in the Pahlavi period.
This paper employs critical discourse analysis to investigate the narratives associated with the quasi-modern Pahlavi discourse on women. Its objective is to analyze the socio-political context in which the modern woman is situated, to comprehend the concept of the modern woman and the semantic processes that shape it, and to comprehend the dominant ideology of this discourse.
According to the research findings, the primary discursive statements are as follows: the necessity of Iran’s immediate modernization, past-oriented patriotism and a forward-looking authoritative state, women’s social rights, the necessity for women’s education, emphasis on women’s duties, reevaluation of women’s dress code, the imperative of lifting the veil, and altering marital relations. In contrast to the traditional woman, the modern woman is portrayed as the embodiment of Iranian modernity in the discourse. The ideology of ancient-oriented nationalism and the emphasis on the concept of a progressive dictator have influenced it to disregard previous identity-forming elements and highlight modern elements that are reminiscent of European women.
At the discursive and social practice level, this approach contains contradictions that suggest that women’s liberation and progress were not the ultimate objective, but rather a means to diminish the influence of traditionalists and, alternatively, to present a staged image of modernization as the primary objective.
