There are various systems for ranking universities at the national and international levels which measure universities by different indicators and show their strengths and weaknesses compared to other universities. But the ranking system of the country's universities, which is based on national and international conditions, is more important than ever. Therefore, the main purpose of this research is to design a model for a comparative study and ranking of universities in the country. This research is applied in terms of purpose and is quantitative-qualitative in terms of type. The study population consists of experienced people involved in the development planning of universities in the country. To determine the sample size, the theoretical impregnation method was used. In this research, first, the necessary information for theoretical discussions was collected through deep study and review of related documents including the published scientific resources,  Then, using the content analysis method, criteria and indicators of university assessment were collected, and finally, the task of determining criteria weights and indicators was done by analytical hierarchy process (AHP) method based on expert opinions. Finally, the model was presented to evaluate and rank the universities of Iran. According to the results of this research, seven criteria and 33 concepts were obtained, which, in the end, according to the weights criteria the ranks were rated. The following rankings are related to the quality of research, international credit, social and cultural credibility, the degree of innovation and financial efficiency, the rate of training of experts, and facilities.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of administrative systems on the process of political development in Iran and Asian countries i.e. Iran, Turkey, and South Korea. The common feature of these countries was authoritarian modernization. In the process of political development, various factors play role; Including administrative systems that are based on political systems. An efficient administrative bureaucracy facilitates the ability and capacity of governments to step on the path of development. In this research, descriptive-survey methodology and comparative studies were used. The data collection tool was a questionnaire and the sample size was 30 people. Its validity was confirmed by experts and Cronbach's alpha test was used to confirm its reliability. Data analysis was performed using structural equation modeling and Smart PLS software. The research findings showed that countries can develop based on the ability to turn the capabilities of their administrative systems into political capacities. Countries could be able to develop that can increase the stability, participation and accountability of their political system and build an efficient, powerful and legitimate administrative system. The results showed that South Korea is in a better position than other Asian countries in the study.

In the twenty-first century man is stepping into the growing transformations’ century and will face more complex and difficult issues. To meet the new century, there is need for new and complex policy decisions and if the policy-making system fails to coordinate with the complex issues and changes of the time, the loss will be inevitable. Accordingly, the overall goal of this research is to provide an optimal decision-making model based on the social decision-making model in governmental agencies.

Organizational citizenship behavior is a set of voluntary and optional behaviors that are not part of the individual’s official duties and put the staff in a situation that they act in an absolutely voluntary manner beyond the expectations of their duties and job definition. And organizational justice is the question of how to treat the staff so that they feel they have been treated fairly, which includes perception of the fairness of payments, equality in organizational procedures, and fairness of interpersonal behaviors in the organization. Organizational justice can have a very important role in the development and improvement of organizational citizenship behavior. The present paper examines the effect of organizational justice on the organizational citizenship behavior of the personnel of the Islamic Azad University of Tabriz. The research sample included 246 employees (staff and faculty members) who were chosen using stratified random sampling. The statistical methods of Pearson’s correlation coefficient test and multiple regression (simultaneous) test were used to analyze the data. The results show that organizational justice has a significant relationship with each of the different dimensions of the organizational citizenship behavior.

The present article primarily provides an effective model for optimum performance of the Islamic councils of cities according to fuzzy theory. In this dissertation, the Islamic councils of cities have been supposed as an open organizational system which has four main activities as follows: intra-organizational, inter-organizational, extra-organizational and individual activities.
In fact, the proposed model is an optimized proportion of these activities which maximizes the satisfaction of council beneficiaries (clients as direct recipients of services and society as indirect receiver of services).(Of course the 4th activity has been assumed as the research limitation, so it has not been studied).
In the proposed Model, at first a fuzzy system has been offered for acquiring the favorable satisfaction of council beneficiaries (outputs) on the basis of the types of activities and their combination (inputs); then different types of city Islamic council's functions have been considered using different tools for gathering the information of Tabriz Islamic Council according to the available theoretical framework and conforming to diverse activities mentioned before have been estimated in the form of the rate of concentration upon activities and satisfaction of clients of the councils.
At the end of the present dissertation, on the basis of the optimized model and the real function of the council, the gap between available and ideal situation has been figured out, and finally, suitable suggestions have been offered for the improvement of the existing conditions.
