The purpose of this research is to explicate the characteristics of the culture of criticism and dialogue among Iranian humanities scholars. This research is a quantitative, descriptive, and interpretive one. Documentary research and content analysis method have been employed in this research. The statistical population of this study consisted of all criticisms, dialogues, critical letters, and rebuffs published in specialized journals of humanities from 1385 to 1391. The sampling method was purposive (intentional) and the sample size involved 45 critical scripts (i.e., something about 200 pages). The results of the survey indicate that the characteristics of the culture of criticism and dialogue between humanities scholars are more destructive rather than constructive, more rational and perceptual rather than sensational, and more source-oriented rather than message-oriented.
