Study focuses on cyclic concept of social change and specific notion of civilizations of Shia Iranian scholar and former president (1997–2005) Mohammad Khatami. In this philosophical framework, he deals with contemporary hot issues of post-cold war world, especially with dialogue among civilizations and with development of Iranian polity and society which tries to make a creative synthesis of the West and the East and create its own civic society and form of democracy as a result. This concept is seen in the context of deep and more than real ongoing internal conflicts between two competing forms of Shia political Islam after the Islamic revolution (1979). It focuses especially on the intra-sub-civilization clash between Khatami and so far dominant Khomeini version of political Islam and modernity. Not only Khatami but as well Karl Popper is invited to critically address the issue of Khomeini Shia historicism. At the end, the study compares Khatami with selected relevant leading Western scholars: Shmuel Eisenstadt, Amitai Etzioni, Samuel Huntington, and Francis Fukuyama
