The paper has intended to study the question of: what effect(s) do modern international system and its omponents of identity have had in appearance of those particular bihaviorial models of religious players? As concluded in the paper, establishment of modern international system after the treaties of Westphalia (1648) and appearance of modern and secular Western state-nations on the basis of the teaching of modernism and their contradiction with the teachings of religious identity, have led to appearance of contradictory behavorial model in religious players. The paper, focusing on political Islam as a religious player, studies the consequence and effect of the modern system. On the findings of the study, it may be claimed that contrary to the idea arguing for weakening the roal of religion by elements of modernism, it has been grown and developed. In other words, not only the attempts made by those supporting modernism against religion have been fruitless but it has led to the appearance of a contradictory behavioral model by religious, particulary Islamic, groups also.
