The Second Step Statement of the Islamic Revolution, acting as a strategic and civilization-building document, outlines the future path of the Islamic Republic of Iran. However, the analysis of its internal structure and governing logic has received limited scholarly attention. This research aims to explore the logical structure of the Statement based on Thomas Spragens' "Crisis Theory" framework. Within this framework, the Statement's text was examined according to the four stages of Spragens' model: observing the crisis, explaining its causes, envisioning the desired state, and providing solutions. The findings indicate that the Statement coherently addresses the main challenges facing the Islamic Republic, including the gap between ideals and realities, the media crisis, scientific backwardness, economic disarray, cultural infiltration, and the creation of despair among the youth. It analyzes the historical, structural, and cultural roots of these crises. Moreover, it presents a vision of a desired society based on independence, social justice, scientific progress, spirituality, cultural authority, and religious democracy. By emphasizing the role of youth, utilizing domestic capabilities, and proposing practical strategies such as scientific development, a resilient economy, and the promotion of ethics and spirituality, it elucidates the path towards realizing a new Islamic civilization. The research results demonstrate that the Second Step Statement of the Islamic Revolution aligns perfectly with Spragens' theoretical model. Therefore, it can be used as a theoretical framework for macro policymaking, institutional transformation, and future research towards sustainable development and the civilizational advancement of Iran.
