Abstract
From the first decade of the Islamic Revolution onwards, the humanities have been on the warring front, with the Islamization project aiming to control and rebuild the humanities. However, the admission capacity of humanities students has not only not decreased but has also grown significantly compared to other disciplines. Since the development and increase of student admission is subject to government policies, It is controlled by the government The question is, how should such different orientations be understood? How can one oppose the humanities but increase its admission capacity more than other disciplines? In this article, we review the policies and practices, the process of increasing the admission of humanities students. Findings from the research show that this extension should be understood under three discourses: The normative discourse that seeks to produce a religious subject, Self-sufficiency discourse that has been formed around the provision of financial resources. In a nutshell, we will show how, despite the expansion of the discipline (especially in terms of increasing student enrollment), the humanities has not lost its shaky and pessimistic position from a governance perspective.
