Abstract
The present study has introduced transcendent governance as the preferred model of governance in Islamic governments. In this regard, the relationship between transcendent governance and national authority in the Islamic Republic of Iran has been studied. In the present age, when the supreme administration of affairs is considered by the rulers and individuals of the world, modeling and choosing an efficient method appropriate to human nature is essential to meet the essential needs of their lives. Given the advancement of technology and the need to provide for the needs of societies as well as the guidance and well-being of individuals in the direction of human evolution, good governance is inevitable. Therefore, the choice of a method of governing with divine legitimacy and popular acceptance and victory is the desire of all nations. In this mixed qualitative research, using meta-combined methods and content analysis, the content of the initial studies is qualitatively analyzed and the findings and results of other studies are analyzed and explained, to upgrade existing knowledge and provide a comprehensive view of the issue. Then, by enumerating the components of transcendent governance, how they affect the efficiency, effectiveness and efficiency of government, as well as public acceptance and satisfaction have been studied. Based on the results, in the case of the implementation of transcendent governance in various geographical scales with the obtained components, the promotion of the national authority of the Islamic Republic of Iran in both external and internal aspects is inevitable and undeniable.
