Abstract

In order to achieve the desired culture, different societies need planning that determines the path of cultural growth and the effective factors in realization of this goal.Since people in Islamic society are obliged to plan their lives according to divine instructions, it is necessary to refer to divine verses in the field of cultural issues.In this paper, which aims to identify the social strategies of the Qur'an to achieve the desired culture and done in a library method, the factors that create the desired culture are divided into two main parts including the people and the government.The most important responsibilities of the people in the three areas of "following the divine Wali (guardian)", "cooperation and assistance" and "public oversight" as beneficial in establishing the desired culture, can be pursued in the two main areas of "protecting" and "promoting" the desired culture.The main duties of the government must be demanded in the three areas of "spreading justice", "expanding security" and "ensuring freedom" in the role of executive agent of divine laws and overseeing their implementation in the two areas of "nurturing, promoting and maintaining the desired culture" and "preventing the spread of counter-values and counter-cultures".Each of these areas, which are relevant in the field of desirable culture and are considered as its components, also have the role of a prelude to the realization of other values.
