جريان عليت در تاريخ: تاملي در نگرش سارتر و مطهري

A Study on the Course of Causality Principle in History According to Sartre and Motahhari

Due to new thoughts, professor Motahhari succeeded to explicate the course of history using causality principle. ^ In this writing besides the opinion of Motaharri, the viewpoints of some H outstanding scholars such as Hegel, Marx, and in a more detailed co manner the opinion of a French philosopher and an important p§ representative of the Existentialist school, Sartre, is explained. In ^ addition the following questions are considered in this article: what is the value of studying and investigating history and what are its principles? Although professor Motahhari has an emphasis on historical traditions and rules and a steady current of principles in the presentation of his thoughts, he gave a positive answer to many requests of people looking for freedom around the world. According to the result of some studies while he was able to logically explicate the flow of the causality principle through history and prove a kind of law- abidingness in the course of history, he was able to emphasize the free will and freedom of human in choosing his destiny, which according to the opinion of many scholars such as Sartre, Marxism was not able to do so. We are probably not exaggerating when we say that the incompleteness of the thought of some like Sartre who were forced to decrease the role of causality in history in order to save human freedom and will, is very well removed in the thoughts of Professor Motahhari.
