IDEOLOGICAL BASES OF THE ISLAMIC GOVERNANCE IN IRAN: TO THE HISTORY OF THE QUESTION

Аннотация

The issue of the concept of “Islamic republic” continues to be discussed in different countries by
orientalists, philosophers, political scientists, lawyers, theologians. At the same time, many researchers pay special
attention to the peculiarities of socio-political life, the nature of socio-economic transformations and other
phenomena in the Islamic Republic of Iran (IRI) [1, p. 84]. In this, the authors believe that one can come to the right
position with respect to the role of clergy in the Iranian revolution, recognizing both the peculiarities of the
ideological foundations of Islam and revealing the clergy as a special group of people with their own specific ideals
and organizational structure. It defines the content of the Islamic-republican form of government and offers its own
vision of the theocratic regime in this country.
