The study related to the “Localization of the study of Sociology” is one of the studies which comprehend some challenges and set forth in the domain of human sciences, especially in the study of sociology. This subject has been discussed in a congregation which was carried out by the sociology department of Imām Khomeini education and research organization. As a side activity, a round table under the subject “localization of Islāmic sociology” was held with the presence of Mr. Hamid Parsīniyā, Mr. Akbar Mirsipāh, and Dr. Panāhī. With regard to the importance of this subject, this scientific meeting has been honored. The point that has to be mentioned is that sociology is a local science in its origin, and non-local in the scientific oriental societies. In addition, a difference must be put between localization and Islāmization. On the other hand, in regard to the matter of localization, we must pay attention to the bases that should be accepted; either the Islāmic view or the Positivism view. This interview deals with the different matters of this subject.
