Türklerin İranlılar ile ilişkileri oldukça eskiye dayanmaktadır. İran kaynaklarında ilk Türk-İran ilişkilerinin İskitler zamanında olduğu belirtilmiştir. Geçmişte Gazneliler, Selçuklular ve Osmanlılar döneminde olduğu gibi günümüz Türkiye Cumhuriyeti’nde de bu ilişkiler çok çeşitli boyutlarda devam etmektedir. Türk-İran ilişkilerinin iki ülke halklarını siyasi yönden olduğu kadar toplumsal ve kültürel yönden de etkilediği bilinmektedir. Bu etkilerin en önemli yansımalarından biri eğitim alanında yaşanmaktadır. Özellikle geçmişten günümüze yaşanan ilişkilerin ders kitaplarında ele alınış biçimleri iki ülke halklarının birbirlerine karşı bakış açılarını doğrudan etkilemektedir.
İran tarih ders kitaplarında Türklere ilişkin söylemlerin nasıl olduğunu belirlemeyi amaçlayan bu araştırmanın kapsamını 1384 hş. (2007) yılında basılan orta 1, orta 2, orta 3. sınıf tarih kitapları oluşturmaktadır. Betimsel modele dayanan araştırmada elde edilen verilerin toplanması, analizi ve yorumlanmasında nitel araştırma yöntemi kullanılmıştır. Verilerin toplanması amacıyla doküman incelemesi yapılmıştır. Doküman incelemesi sonucunda şu sonuçlara ulaşılmıştır: İran’ın sınırları dışındaki Türkler özellikle de Osmanlılar Şii inanç çerçevesinde ötekileştirilirken hatta bir tehdit olarak değerlendirilirken, İran’daki yönetici Türk hanedanlardan övgüyle söz edilmiştir. Türklere ilişkin anlatımların bir kısmının tarihi araştırmaların bulgularıyla örtüşmediği de tespit edilmiştir.
