In exploring issues of Islam, media, and revolutionary reproduction, my paper looks at the role of the cultural producers of Iran’s paramilitary Basij and Revolutionary Guards. Specifically, I ask: How do these groups contend with their ever-burgeoning economic power coupled with contested views within their ranks about the ways to rearticulate the ideals of the Islamic revolution and “sacred defense” of the Iran-Iraq War? In particular, how do cultural producers of the Basij and Revolutionary Guards utilize popular media to redefine Islamic citizenship and reformulate revolutionary narratives? What are the ways in which the Basij and the Revolutionary Guards (RG) use media to make original Islamic revolutionary promises accessible to new generations in the current politics of the Islamic Republic? How do their favorable economic conditions impact their means of production and circulation? Through ethnographic research among cultural producers in the Basij and RG in Iran, I argue that the ways in which these discussions among the RG and Basij about the reconfigurations of nation, culture, Islam, and community are not only narratives about the past, but more crucially, about the future of the Islamic Republic. In exploring these issues, my paper will use ethnographic material from the past two years in Iran with Basiji cultural producers as well as a linguistic analysis of the narratives used on a number of the television shows and films created by the Basij.
