Journal Article 2016 06 14 The nationalization of oil industry movement is one of the important historical periods  of political life in Iran, through which Iranians came to political scene not only to eradicating the roots of foreign exploitation forever but also to pave the way for the development of Iran. Unfortunately the wish didn’t come true. So far many researchers have studied the reasons of this failure from different perspectives. The attempt is made here to provide a new perspective in addition to the available view points, based on discourse analysis. The main purpose of this article is to determine that how did the “inquiring of national rights” became equivalent to the “nationalizing” over the years of this movement. With a review of the history of oil industry nationalization, the discourse analysis contributes to the realistic understanding of Iranian nationalists’ performance against enemy’s transference logic. Fundamental reasons, discussed in this article indicate that Iranian nationalists didn’t have a deep and predictable strategy against USA and specially UK regarding oil industry. As this weakness was revealed along with the fundamental reasons, Iranian nationalists did not have realistic initiatives the kind that could transfer the discourse ambiguity in to a new era. A new era could have been addressed in a manner that the foundation of oil industry would have remained powerful and would have embarrassed the enemies.  This strategy did not work and this national movement failed gradually. <br />  The nationalization of oil industry movement is one of the important historical periods  of political life in Iran, through which Iranians came to political scene not only to eradicating the roots of foreign exploitation forever but also to pave the way for the development of Iran.
