%X This paper explores the reason behind the crisis of representation in post-revolutionary competing Iranian gender discourses. These competing discourses include Islamic fundamentalism, religious revisionism, and secular feminism. The crisis of representation is related to at least three main presuppositions and attendant action programs: first, discrimination against women and possible accommodations should be examined in the context of religious and legal institutions. This approach resulted in the depoliticization of women¡¯s issues, even though most Iranian women have persistently proclaimed equality and citizenship through political participation. This was the case for the 1979 Islamic Revolution, the reform movement and most recently, the Green Movement following the 2009 presidential election. The second presupposition is that individual identity is a fundamental condition for socio-political activism. The third presupposition is that discrimination against women in post-revolutionary Iran is essentially a legalist strategy and has resulted in campaigns that failed to address women¡¯s daily challenges. On the contrary, women¡¯s political participation in post-revolutionary Iran shows that gender issues are always political issues and need to be understood politically and politicized. Such a notion challenges attitudes which relegate gender discrimination and social solutions to the purview of religion or secularism. Cet article explore les raisons ¨¤ l¡¯origine de la crise de repr¨¦sentation des diff¨¦rents discours  sur l¡¯¨¦galit¨¦ sexuelle dans l¡¯Iran postr¨¦volutionnaire. Parmi ces discours l'int¨¦grisme islamique rivalise avec le r¨¦visionnisme religieux, et le f¨¦minisme la c. La crise de repr¨¦sentation est li¨¦e ¨¤ au moins trois pr¨¦suppositions majeures et aux programmes d'action subs¨¦quents: dans un premier temps, la discrimination des femmes et les recours possibles doivent ¨ºtre envisag¨¦s dans le cadre des institutions religieuses et juridiques. Cette approche a conduit ¨¤ la d¨¦politisation des questions relatives aux femmes, m¨ºme si la plupart des femmes iraniennes continuent ¨¤ revendiquer l¡¯¨¦galit¨¦ et la citoyennet¨¦ par leur participation politique. Cela a ¨¦t¨¦ le cas lors de la R¨¦volution Islamique de 1979, du Mouvement de R¨¦forme et, plus r¨¦cemment, du Mouvement Vert qui a suivi l'¨¦lection pr¨¦sidentielle de 2009. La seconde pr¨¦supposition est que l'identit¨¦ individuelle constitue le fondement de l'activisme sociopolitique. La troisi¨¨me est que la discrimination ¨¤ l¡¯¨¦gard des femmes dans l¡¯Iran postr¨¦volutionnaire est essentiellement une strat¨¦gie l¨¦ga
