Abstract: (1730 Views) |
| JCPOA refers to an international treaty concluded after the de-escalation of Iran-West relations. Nevertheless, there have been conflicts on it at these countries’ internal level, so that these conflicts have continued even after its conclusion and with Trump’s withdrawal from this treaty. Accordingly, one of the key reasons for this treaty’s ineffectiveness is rooted in these very conflicts. In this regard, the present research is aimed at answering the question of how do the Iranian and American internal parties affect the positive approach of the JCPOA? Moreover, through using the discourse method and by means of the consensus theory of Hanrieder, we reached the hypothesis that via a collective consensus in the two countries, i.e. the United States of America and the Islamic Republic of Iran, a game with a positive algebraic sum can be watched regarding the nuclear agreement issue. Just as in the past in the Rouhani government, when Iran experienced a consensus at the level of elites through emphasizing on maintaining the independent cycle of nuclear fuel, and the US in the Obama government provided the conditions for the formation of the treaty through adopting an interaction approach, the internal variables can now propel the two countries towards consensus and compatibility or conflict. |
