Any community's security environment serves as a function of the interaction and conflict between the invariables of both internal and external environment. Iran’s security environment, thus, is vulnerable and prone to crisis, because of its ideological-revolutionary nature and in terms of historical, cultural and ethnic characteristics due to its geopolitical and geostrategic location. So, this research intends to theoretically address the concept of ‘Shi'ite critical geopolitics’ and the ‘discourse based on resistance’ by criticizing traditional geopolitical approaches. This article, which has been conducted in the form of an analytical model (hypothetico-deductive), uses descriptive research method. Data has ben collected by using library method. The findings in this research indicate that, due to geopolitical weaknesses of Shiites in other countries of the region, the Islamic Republic of Iran requires a convergence at the heart of which lie other commonalities including cultural, historical, geographical and economicl considerations so that it could be able to contribute to improve the Shiites’ status in the countries of the region by overcoming those weaknesses in the long term together in the light of other components only to capitalize on their improved geopolitical status in the region in the future.
