This article explores the origins and development of sociology in Iran as an academic discipline. While most historiographies on Iranian sociology adopt an institutional perspective, this study goes beyond that framework, examining its emergence through the lens of "sociological imagination." From a non-institutional viewpoint, it argues that sociology did not simply arise with the establishment of the University of Tehran. Historical contexts such as the paradigm shift during the Naseri era, underground associations and their societal impacts, the rise of religious social movements and sociological ideas, Iranian journalism, and 19th-century sociological concepts all contributed to the formation of sociological knowledge. If sociological imagination is taken as a criterion, sociology cannot be reduced to a "commodity" that was "imported" and "assembled" in Iran. Instead, understanding the transfer and transmission of knowledge requires analyzing the relationship between society and ideas by employing imaginative power and examining the social realm in the thoughts and language of thinkers, poets, and writers a century before sociology's institutional establishment.
