Introduction
Its cultural diplomacy is a part of diplomacy that pursues the development of international and interstate relations through culture, art and civilization-building components. The Islamic Republic of Iran, with its cultural, civilizational and religious components and many commonalities, is capable of playing a more active role in the field of cultural diplomacy in India, therefore, in order to redefine the practical components to achieve a stable and strategic relationship, as well as to recognize opportunities and challenges. There is a need for applied research and our goal is to achieve this necessity. Therefore, we are looking for an answer to this question, what are the practical components of cultural diplomacy of the Islamic Republic of Iran in India? The hypothesis of this research is that the religious-value, cultural-artistic and civilizational-normative components can help to improve the soft power and cultural diplomacy of the Islamic Republic of Iran.
1.1. Research Methodology
This research is based on the theoretical application of constructivism for a deep understanding of the cultural diplomacy of the Islamic Republic of Iran in India with a descriptive-analytical method and based on the analysis of library and citation data, by studying and gathering information in an inductive way and using library and internet resources. The basis of objective and historical data has been established.
Discussion
The emergence of culture in the foreign policy of governments has been used as a key component under the title of cultural diplomacy for decades. Cultural diplomacy tries to influence the public opinion of nations in addition to governments by using civilizational, artistic and cultural, religious components and indicators such as language, literature, norms and values. Constructivism in international relations tries to the internal and international culture and norms of a country find a common understanding and through that they play a role in cultural diplomacy. Cultural diplomacy is able to target the general public in addition to the elite society. One of the advantages of cultural diplomacy is to be present in the destination society without conflicts and political sensitivities. The goal of cultural diplomacy is to gain prestige and credibility in the international field and influence the target society, which is sometimes formed by creating new scientific and cultural institutions with the goal of common understanding. Islamic Iran and India have not been able to establish strategic and stable relations with common objective and subjective components. Therefore, considering that India is one of the influential countries in the region and the world, the more active and dynamic presence of the cultural diplomacy of the Islamic Republic of Iran can develop relations and Promotion of national interests and soft power of the Islamic Republic of Iran.
Conclusion
The Islamic Republic of Iran, with its distinct identity and structural characteristics in foreign policy and cultural and civilizational characteristics, is able to play an active role in cultural diplomacy. The cultural commons of Iran and India as two regional powers in West and South Asia can be analyzed under the theory of constructivism. Constructivists use components such as identity, interests, structure and agent for their level of analysis and by removing the boundary between reality and value on the one hand and constructs and objective reality on the other hand (subject and object) presented a new analysis of international relations. Unlike neoliberals who explain the material factors in the relationship between states, they also pay attention to the cultural and semantic components and believe in the creative role of these components. They are in the international system. Iran and India as two countries, having a relationship of several thousand years and having many common elements from ancient times until now, have the ability to create relations beyond the current level. The relations between Iran and India after the Iranian Islamic Revolution are often influenced by the international system, the domestic policies of the two countries, India's relations with Israel and the United States, the not so good relations between India and China and Pakistan, the Persian Gulf countries, Afghanistan and Central Asia, and these unstable relations have definitely affected our cultural diplomacy agents. If we want to provide a brief definition of cultural diplomacy, without a doubt indexing can be the most important goal of cultural diplomacy. The audience of cultural diplomacy is the general public and the elite society, and as a result, the cultural broker must present an image that fits the identity and cultural components of his country to the audience and make his country known to the world as a cultural brand. Just like France, South Korea, America, Turkey. Each of them is developing diplomatic relations with their cultural profile. Therefore, the Islamic Republic of Iran can be an important player in cultural diplomacy due to its geopolitical, geostrategic and geocultural position, and being in the field of civilization visionary in addition to Iranian-Islamic culture and civilization. Cultural diplomacy It is a field of diplomacy that is based on civilizational, cultural and artistic components, religion, values and norms. The goal of cultural diplomacy is to develop relations through the lens of culture, because culture is one of the limited fields that face less resistance in the target society and the challenges of other fields. Therefore, the cultural diplomacy of the Islamic Republic of Iran can use religious-value, cultural-artistic, civilizational-normative components to promote its relations in India. India, having about two hundred million Muslims, a quarter of whom are Shiites, and Hindu religions such as Buddhism, Jainism, and Sikhism, which have common values such as pacifism; the presence of the Persian language and literature for eight hundred years, which, due to its capabilities, is the official, administrative and It was the Diwani of India; And since 2020 AD, it was recognized as one of the classical languages of India by the Parliament; the common and respected cultural personalities of the parties such as Abu Rehan Buruni, Bidel Dehlavi, Ghalib Dehlavi, Amir Khosrow and extensive academic and academic relations that extend from the Sassanid era until now; an architect who symbolizes The indicator of this cultural exchange between the two countries is the Taj Mahal, and the widespread presence of the Iranian diaspora, which is itself a component and tool of cultural diplomacy. He is the exponent and executor of these identity-building indicators. Therefore, taking into account these unique components and characteristics, it is necessary for brokers to take advantage of the soft power and practical components of the cultural diplomacy of the Islamic Republic of Iran.
