AB - This paper seeks to initiate a program to elucidate the elements of the new civil revolution, I call as the revolution of Muwatin, that commenced in the Middle East in 2011 and became a global phenomenon and which was also revealed during the ‘Candlelight Revolution’ of Korea in 2016. This new civil revolution has the potential to bring about profound changes in history. First, ‘Chapter 2: The Concept of “Revolution” That Is Ridiculed’ outlines the confused situation regarding the current concept of ‘Revolution.’ Furthermore, ‘Chapter 3: Vanity, Deviation, Bias, and Limitations That Past Civil Revolutions Could Not Break Through’ documents evidence that past civil revolutions since 17 century generated many problems that are really exposed to the necessity of revolution today. In addition, it is suggested that the socialist revolutions of 20th century also should be included in the broad frame of past civil revolutions and should be reviewed critically. However, the Candlelight Revolution should not be included in these types of revolutions mentioned above. Instead, this paper asserts the necessity of reflecting critically on the socialism of 20th century as we seek to move towards the reunification of South and North Korea. Thus, ‘Chapter 4: How Should We Understand the Permanent Revolution?’ sees in a new manner permanent revolution in the traditional imperial formation of the two nations of Iran and China by moving away from a West-centered historical view, and seeks ways to deconstruct the conception regarding the universal polity of a world network to renew multiplicity and diversity. This paper ends focusing on the Muwatin Revolution, though it is certain that making breakthroughs to see a new type of reality will be hampered by many difficulties. Nevertheless, the Muwatin Revolution has the power to revive ‘super modernity’ in all fields including gender and issues related to future generations.
