Abstract
Building on ideas developed in the interpretative paradigm, I explore how power and political desires of the reformist religious government of Iran construct liquid subjectivity for female university students born in the 2000s, through employing grounded theory method. Following Islamic Revolution of Iran in 1978, religious norms occupied the society and a broad range of traditional beliefs were revived. However, when the religious conservative replaced by a religious reformist state in 1998, some significant social and economic changes, which reflected on nurture patterns and manners, occurred and caused the new generation to experience liquidity in three main dimensions, including religiosity, national identity and cultural values. Liquidity in Iran is identified as the consequence of lack of balance between desires of religious government and people living in a society of transition.
