Abstract

The twentieth century has been the stage for the formation of various political and social transformations in various countries, and the emergence of numerous revolutions can be considered as prominent examples of this transformation. Some of these revolutions were not only effective in domestic and national measurements, but also profoundly changed global politics and the geographical order of the world. The Cuban Revolution in 1957, led by Fidel Castro, and the Islamic Revolution in Iran in 1978, led by Imam Khomeini, are two important revolutions in this century. Since these two revolutions emerged from popular uprisings and led to the overthrow of the ruling regime and a change in the status quo, they have similarities and, of course, differences with each other; hence, examining the causes and nature of these two political and social revolutions in the twentieth century has been one of the topics worth considering that has attracted the attention of researchers and enthusiasts. The present article explores the similarities and differences between these two revolutions using a descriptive-analytical method and reliable library resources and computer software. The aim of this research is to create a correct understanding and analysis of the issues of the two revolutions for scientists, politicians and decision-makers and to prevent strategic errors when comparing the two revolutions. The anti-colonial movement, the anti-dictatorship ideal, the confrontation of the United States of America are among the similarities between the two revolutions and the causes of their occurrence, ideology, leadership personality, independence and reliance on popular power or external factors, the level of public presence, recklessness or fear of confronting the colonial policies of the United States of America and the extent of the revolution's effects in the world are among its important differences.
