This paper is entitled “Iranian Foreign Policy Phases 1979-2017”. It discusses five broad periods in the post-revolutionary Iranian foreign policy. The aim is to understand foreign policy orientation and approaches that have been followed by each Iranian elected president in different situations. In addition, it highlights the impact of reformism approach on Iranian political agenda internally and externally. The findings of our paper show that there
has not been a constant Iranian foreign policy orientation, but different political approaches have been conducted by Iranian decision makers in accordance with Iran’s national interests. Besides, Iranian foreign policy making has been within the framework and according to principles of Islamic revolution in all periods.
