Abstract


After the bipolarity pattern, with an extreme clash of ideology and political system, has collapsed, the worldwide conflicts among groups are not moderated since the comprehensive conceptions of the end of the history and democratic peace have been acknowledged around the world, and there shows no essential change of the conflicts in both geographical distribution and intense degree compared with the time before. Setting in the contemporary society with the globalization’s deep development, the system design tends to be increasingly identical among the separated human social livings, and the since and technology’s fast expanding through out the world has formed the human society into an undivided unit as well, but the real challenge to this tendency is the cultural diversity among entities. In fact, the conflict and dialogue among cultures and civilizations has been the core problem that focused by the scholars of international relation study in the world of the post-cold war, and which is because this it not only involves the interactions among the cultural units, but also influences the order of the whole world deeply. And among these cultural interactions, the different cultural units that represented by America, Iran and China are focused as the core topic of the international relations and affairs, and the interactions among these units have typically expressed the culture’s function in the process of affecting the national foreign policy’s design and implementation. And as a result, by the comparison of America and China’s Iran policies, the shadow of the culture, which hides itself back into the national interests and acting pattern, can be observed clearly, and even to some extent, the former is the projection of the later in the practise.There are absolute differences between the America and China’s Iran policies. In the long history of China and Iran relationship, a mutually beneficial and friendly frequent communication, as the core content in the history, has been tested by the changes of the time and situations and inherited as always. Such benign interactions between the cultural units, which are of the main tone of multi-dimension, interear and peace pursuit, can be called the model of friendly dealings among cultural units. As to the America’s Iran policy, it is a fighting history that forged with the brand of distinct cultural conflicts.The interactions between these two countries and cultures is firstly based upon an unfair theory of cultural superiority, and which means to maintain such type of relation needs a premise of achieving America and the western’s interests, and when the situation changes, such an inflexible and obstinate cultural logical thinking can only set the relations of each other into an opposite condition to confront the shake of the premise and even resort to violence. Attempting todeconstruct and compare the absolute differences of foreign policies by the angle of cultural diversity is the purpose of this paper, and a cultural dimension arrangement can provide a convinced interpretation to the existence of such differences.At the same time, as the culture has at least forged the one of the fundamental elements of China and American’s Iran policies in history, what can be summarized is that the restricted and standardized function that the culture acts to the behavior unit is by the process of determing the relationship and interests among the cultural units and the effect ends with a model of behavior preference which is determined by the inherent logical thinking. And through the process, what the unit depend on for its existence and continuation is the collective world view and philosophy, and which is equal to a logical thinking and conception preference, it is the most significant and powerful interpretation for a culture’s view of values. And all of this are caused by the different origin and developing environment of each cultural unit, and it plays a latent function of normalizing to the culture members since it has been forged.Then, being surrounded by such an absolutely distinct cultural environment atmosphere, one cultural unit tends to spread its cultural achievement to the rest areas of the world with its increasing development. With the continuous development and increasingly frequent and deep contacts of human society, to explore a world order to integrate and accommodate the different cultural units to be accomplish a situation of harmonious coexistence should be one of the core issues of international relations studies. Therefore, a culture that can organically combine the pursuit of an ideal world order and the essential connotation of itself is the right ideal basics of such world order. Compared to the western culture, the Chinese culture is more accorded with such appeal, and the TianXia conception in epistemology and the HuaiRen policy in methodology of the chinese culture has benefited the whole world includes itself. Hence, to reacknowledge both the culture itself and the cultures that represented by China and America are of significance to both theory and practise.
