Designing the Political Security Model of the Islamic Republic of Iran in the Second Phase of the Revolution

The issue of security, especially that of the political security, is an obvious and inevitable necessity in individual and social life. This research is intended to design the political security model of the Islamic Republic of Iran in the second phase of the revolution. In view of the fact that the second phase of the Islamic Revolution aims at identifying the ways to improve the power and supremacy of the country, designing such a model will manage security challenges, especially political security problems, pass through security blocks and complications, and will strengthen the construction of a safe and solid security structure for political security, and will serve as a roadmap to political stability of a secure society.
Searching for the components and indicators of this model, the researchers employed a qualitative data-driven method. Then, targeted and semi-structured interviews were conducted with experts in the field of political security. Through open, axial and selective coding, 98 components were identified in negative and positive dimensions. These components were validated by assigning a questionnaire to 20 experts with relevant knowledge and experience by the Lavshe tool. Finally, 70 components, including, causal factors (11), contextual factors (16), intervening factors (12), strategies (22), and outcomes (9) consequences were approved. From among them, national integrety and loyalty to vilayah enjoyed high credibility in the positive dimension. In the negative dimension, people's avoidance from isolating themselves from the system and not siding with hostile atheist regimes were the most important ones.
Lack of a political security model corresponding the scientific and technological developments, coinciding with the second step of the revolution, was recognized as the problem of this research.
