Abstract

This study entitled "Pioneers Sociology of Childhood in Iran: Motahhari, Shariati, Philosophical" seeks to identify the first ideas about social and cultural analysis of children and childhood in Iran.
The method of this research is document analysis. The results show that despite the philosophical ideas of thinkers who have discussed the child and childhood, based on currents and Social and cultural events of Iranian society, especially the challenges of religious scholars with the secularization programs of the Pahlavi government, such as Motahhari, Shariati and Falsafi started a sociological view (based on social and cultural contexts) on children and childhood in Iran. All three thinkers envision an ideal society in their own intellectual space, the most important feature of which is an Islamic religious society centered on Shiism. The necessity of such a society, in their view, is the existence of activists with a Shiite religious character and spirit. Therefore, children, in their view, are potential actors for the ideal society that should be prepared with religious education. For this reason, according to all three thinkers, the most important structure in today's society is the education system; The most important actors in today's society are children; The most important specialists in the current society are scholars and religious specialists and the most important roles in the current society are the role of parents, educators and teachers as the main forces in educating children.
