The seminary has long responded to the socio-cultural needs of society. With the victory of the Islamic Revolution and the structuring of the seminary, the Supreme Council of the seminary was established as a policy-making institution and compiled numerous documents as charter and outlook. Using content analysis, this research seeks to examine the relationship between the seminary and culture in documents and resolutions related to propagation. In the method of content analysis and coding, the propositions of the three themes of "cultural transmission", "cultural stabilization requirements" and "globalization" were discovered, which indicate the acceptance of the subjectivity of the seminary towards culture. In addition, the damages and ways to promote propagation were identified. According to the qualitative studies conducted, the seminary needs the integration of education, research and propagation in order to maintain and promote itself as a reference for other social institutions. This goal is achieved by understanding the culture of the society and adding courses such as cultural studies, philology, etc. in the preparatory period.
