Political thought is the kind of thinking which is formulated in different disciplines; political philosophy, political ideology, political theology, and political literature are some of its important examples. Although in the course of history political science was transformed to the “science of power”, once again it has returned to its origins for articulating ways to achieve “good life” and “political thinking”. Considering this epistemic turn to ethics and the normative turn in the study of development and economics, benefiting from the practical implications of political thought seems to be a historical necessity. In the present article, first we discuss the main analyses and theories concerning the nature of political thought, and then a paradigmatic-implicative narrative is presented as an alternative for the interdisciplinary explanation of political thought.

Futures Studies are transdiciplinary research field that explain social phenomena and change processes, and provide a broader perspective on them. Further, it develops various fields of human activity. Futures studies thematic territory is all sectors of culture, economics, politics, technology and the arts, and in the view of the changes ahead, its topics are rising. It is believed that human societies are able not to control the future, but the future is able to influence the path of history. I this study, we reviewed books and papers published in futures studies to illustrate American sutures studies movement in 1960s and 1970s. We start with World War II and Cold War. Then, organizations and future thinkers affecting futures studies would be discussed. Finally, the paradigms that have formed after World War II and the Cold War in the field of futures studies would be defined. Generally, futurists believe that so far there have been two paradigms in the evolution of futures studies and there are signs of the emergence of a new paradigm.

The aim of this research is survey of possibility Islamic Sociology Paradigm in recent situation in terms of lack of necessary agreement with acceptance of religious science among researchers, lack of philosophy of Islamic social sciences, lack of Islamic sociology and its scientific community and finally others necessary circumstances for constitution of this paradigm. Principal question in here is how much the Islamic Sociology Paradigm is possible in changing context of current humanities (with western foundation and approach) to desired humanities (with Islamic foundation and approach) with consideration of posterior and coincidental emergence of paradigm in history of science? Theoretical framework here is Kuhn's theory in history and philosophy of science. Research method is documentary study in area of emergence of scientific paradigm via use of notation technique. Results show emergence of paradigm without critique and falsification current paradigms in coping with new needs and problems in scientific community has philosophic, logic and practical serious errors. In result, lack of acceptance of Islamic Sociology Paradigm as substitution paradigm among of scientific communities’ members in the world especially Islamic countries leads to impairments in thinking and faithful foundation of Islamic Sociology Paradigm.
