Iran’s nuclear program has been the most important issue for its foreign policy during the last decade. This article tries to apply discourse analysis, as a research framework, to Iran’s nuclear policy during Ahmadinejad’s government. The authors explore main political discourse shape Iranian foreign policy and nuclear activity behavior during the last few years. Analysis of nuclear discourse of Ahmadinejad’s government shows that this discourse could become hegemonic by using effective interaction as its master signifier, more coherent and active political elements, use of exclusive and foregrounding processes, higher availability and reliability in comparison with other competing discourses. Finally, the article examines the reasons of the decline of Ahmadinejad's government nuclear discourse.

In this article the ideational and normative dimensions of Iran’s bid to join the nuclear countries’ club is studied. The main question is: what is the status of identity and ideational concerns in Iranian nuclear conflict and its resolution? Using a qualitative and analytical method, to answer this question, the author tests the hypothesis that non-recognition of identity concerns of Iran by the West in the course of the nuclear conflict has been effective in the conflict’s continuation. In the same way, quelling the Iranian identity concerns in the framework of the arrangements taken within the Joint Plan of Action and Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action has helped resolution of the nuclear conflict. Using the Social Psychology theory, the author further contends that Iran –West identity competition has served as the reason for inclusion of Iranian identity concerns into the nuclear conflict. In other words, the Iran-West identity competition gave significance to the West’s resistance towards Iran’s completion of domestic nuclear fuel cycle as an identity matter and drove it to materialize its nuclear rights despite sanctions and threats.

Usually the relationship between international law and international politics is considered reciprocal relationship that one includes fairness and equality and another one containing the power and it is often assumed that international law reduced by power, because there is no world government to control power and anarchy reduce the administrative options and restricts the effect of international law. Instead, this paper assumes that the hegemon is the creator, protector and fixing the rules of international law. Powerful states and especially hegemonic governments to reduce the costs associated with the consolidation of international peace and security, have forced to institutionalization and application of legal rules, As international law needs power to impose its rules. This paper aims to examine the role of hegemon on development of international law by historical perspective and descriptive- analytic method.
