Abstract

The Islamic Revolutionary Movement is one of the most important and influential events of the contemporary period, which started a new process by challenging the existing order. The media today has created a new kind of power that has an intangible face with its own speed and complexity. Representing the power and influence of the media plays an important role in the perception and action of the audience. Radio, as a hot medium, has a special place in establishing direct and comprehensive communication with the general public, the functions and dysfunctions of which must be explained. This study seeks to answer the question of what role the radio media played in the process and spread of the Islamic Revolution; And the research hypothesis is based on this. Based on the findings of radio media research on the role of function, the capacity to create perceptions of lack of justice in society, the transmission of values ​​related to violence management, the flourishing of critical rationality and the teaching of right-wing aggression and the role of dysfunctional promotion of personal and ethnic prejudice Habit has institutionalized violence in the attitudes and behaviors of individuals in society and the transmission of anti-violence-related values ​​as a tool for the expansion and cohesion of revolutionary movements.
