Abstract
Aim . To study the specifics of the geopolitical project of Iran in its opposition to the geopolitical project of Turkey in the process of the struggle of these powers for leadership in the Greater Middle East region. Methodology . The main methods of research are systematic, comparative, and phenomenological methods of research. Results . Iran plays a significant role in the geopolitical process not only in the Greater Middle East region, but also in Eurasia and the world as a whole, relying on its own geopolitical project, the components of which are Shiism, Aryanism, energy resources and communications (the “Iranian square“). At the same time, Iran is immanently opposed to Turkey and its geopolitical project, the components of which are Sunni panIslamism, pan-Turkism and neo-Ottomanism (the “Turkish triangle“). Research implications . The results of the study contribute to the theory of geopolitics and are important for predicting the geopolitical behavior of the modern Turkey and Iran.
Highlights
Iran plays a significant role in the geopolitical process in the Greater Middle East region, and in Eurasia and the world as a whole, relying on its own geopolitical project, the components of which are Shiism, Aryanism, energy resources and communications
Iran is immanently opposed to Turkey and its geopolitical project, the components of which are Sunni panIslamism, pan-Turkism and neo-Ottomanism
Иран играет заметную роль в геополитическом процессе как в регионе Большого Ближнего Востока, так и во всей Евразии и мире в целом, опираясь на собственный геополитический проект, составными частями которого являются шиизм, арийство, энергетические ресурсы и коммуникации («иранский квадрат»)
Summary
Совокупность стран со значительным присутствием шиитов среди населения иногда называют «Большой Иран», однако, вопреки названию, влияние Ирана в этих странах не только не всегда бывает весомым, но в большинстве случаев требует от Исламской Республики Иран определённых затрат и усилий [8]. Вначале как просветительская структура по изучению шиитского варианта ислама в Ливане (по разным оценкам, в Ливане от 27% до 35% населения – шииты), но затем провозгласила своей целью создание в Ливане теократического государства по примеру Ирана.
