When empires and great nations decline, there are many interrelated reasons involved in. Empires are considered to be powerful entities in the world, and via historical surveys, one can identify several important empires that have existed in different eras. Geopolitical knowledge and its constituent concepts (power, politics, and space) are closely associated with empires and can be explored from this perspective. The aim of this research is to conduct a geopolitical investigation of the collapse of empires. The research deal with the geopolitical factors contributing to the collapse of empires such as Persia, Rome, Byzantium, Ottoman, Britain, Russia, Spain, and Arab countries, using a descriptive-analytical method and field research. The statistical population consists of 50 specialists and experts in the field of geopolitical studies. The Dimtel method has been utilized to test the conceptual model of the research. The findings demonstrate that variables such as the incompetence and capriciousness of rulers, the collapse of the domestic economy, the extravagance and corruption of the governing class, oppression and slavery, and internal rebellions have a high level of interaction and a strong systemic connection with other variables. In other words, when a country faces these challenges in terms of its leadership and governance, it becomes unable to effectively address other problems caused by these factors, leading to a crisis and the eventual collapse of the empire.

Power is the characteristic of a human being that enables him/her to take action in order to satisfy his/her desires and goals. Different scholars and thinkers have paid close attention to the issue of national power and have examined this issue from various perspectives. For this reason, measuring national power and designing a comprehensive method and model for assessing the national power of countries is one of the most important concerns of experts in the discussion of power. Many experts have examined power, some of which have examined and measured quantitative variables such as GDP, military strength, population size, size, etc. Mathematics has been used to determine the type of relationship between variables. It is obvious that the desired goal cannot be achieved without knowing the works of other scholars. This research aims to provide a comprehensive conceptual model related to the sources of national power that can meet the needs of countries in all different time periods. Therefore, in this study, Hafeznia's nine-component model can be considered as a comprehensive model and research foundation, and the research results can be compiled based on the components of this model. This paper presents a suitable mathematical model and evaluates the national power of the states.

At the first stage, theoretical discussions on the concepts of power, national power, foundations and sources of power and methods of calculating power were examined. Data collection at this stage was based on library findings. At the second stage, 80 theoretical models about the principles and sources of power of countries presented by domestic and foreign experts were reviewed. At the third stage, a total of 400 variables and indicators affecting national power were collected. At the fourth stage, variables were collected based on the following four criteria: there are standard and universal data for them; variability of variables or their ability to be converted to quantitative values; existence of important and universal quality variables and variables are available. The above items were evaluated and screened; then, out of a total of 400 variables, 84 variables were removed and the remaining 316 variables were categorized in the form of 9 economic, political, military, social and other dimensions of the national power. The method of factor analysis was used to prioritize and select the best variables in each factor. It should be noted that in selecting the number of suggested variables in each factor, the main criterion was the 50% share of these variables in each factor. In other words, in selecting the number of variables from the proposed variables of the model for each factor, an attempt has been made to select the required number of variables, the necessary and sufficient variables that have the greatest impact on national strength.Also, for measurement of qualitative variables and indicators affecting national power were collected from the following methods study of theories about the principles and elements of national power and using the opinions of various experts and thinkers through interviews. Finally, according to the mentioned cases, qualitative variables with positive and negative functions were selected. The values of the variables in this step were qualitative and depended entirely on the opinion of experts. At this stage, we have 21 qualitative variables, for the measurement of each of which different methods and models were considered, which are mentioned below. To examine them, we first look at the three strategies as follows:A) The first strategy is to use quantitative semantic indicators for qualitative variables using official statistics and international institutions;B) The second strategy: the use of international indicators made by research centers such as World Bank;C) The third strategy was to use a questionnaire and expert opinions to convert qualitative data into quantitative data.

The difference between the formula and TAPSIS in the final ranking is that TAPSIS considers all factors positively by radical action, while we put that this power is the result of the sum of positive and negative factors. If a country has more negative dimensions and indicators, it will definitely face less and even less negative national power, while more powerful countries that have more positive indicators and variables than negative indicators will show higher weight. One of the differences that can be seen in the ranking and formation of the World Power Pyramid is that today, soft and intelligent power is more important than hard and military power, which is the reason why countries are in this dimensions of power such as cultural, social, political power, etc., they have been more successful and have a higher weight. In the final ranking, they have a higher weight than the countries that have acted weaker in these dimensions. Thus, it can be said that the world and countries are turning to the use of soft power on a large scale. This can be clearly seen in the region of Western Europe and Scandinavia. Switzerland, Norway, Finland, the Netherlands, etc. were able to gain more weight in terms of cultural, social, and political power than other countries, and this factor caused them to gain more weight in terms of the nine components. Some countries have a relatively high weight in terms of military and territorial power, this is in fact due to the situation in the Middle East, which has strengthened the military and defense dimension of the countries in the region, and in fact this region will become a warehouse for gunpowder and military weapons, so it can be rightly said that having only military power and strong mineral resources is not generally powerful in the current arena. Therefore, it can be said that in near future, countries that are more successful in discussing cultural diplomacy will enjoy national power. As a result, it can be said that the international system of the world is undergoing constant changes and upheavals, from hard to soft power and intelligent power, which can be rightly seen in the pyramid of world power. In the future, the powerful country will no longer is a country that has higher military and hard power, but is a country that has higher intelligence and soft power.

This paper aimed to provide a comprehensive model to measure the national power of the countries that are of great importance in geopolitical weight. Therefore, the inclusion of these variables is very important. On the other hand, in many models, qualitative variables have not been studied and evaluated. However, attempts were made to use three main strategies to use qualitative indicators. In this model, an attempt was made to use linear scaling method as well as four quantification methods such as Morris index, percentage share, contractual and self-digit indicators. The desired variables were combined and evaluated. Various techniques such as Dimtel were also used to examine the model. In this way, the national power of countries can be measured and evaluated in different dimensions in relation to each other and in a systematic way. Finally, the mathematical model in question was extracted according to the rules of performance evaluation of this type of variables and the model was evaluated through this formula.

Sport organizes and enhances the morale of players and spectators and is an integral part of human life. Sport is influenced by the politics and decisions of political actors and also affects politics at the local, national, regional and international levels, so it is necessary to address it from the perspective of political geography and examine the effective dimensions of sport in both space and politics. And contract analysis. There are constant links between sport, athlete, spectator, place and politics. The FIFA World Cup is a showcase of action and reaction between powers, countries and schools on a national, regional and international scale. When a national football team succeeds in navigating or winning a tournament, political actors use that victory to increase power, win elections, arouse the nation's sentiment, and increase internal solidarity. This research is theoretical in terms of basic purpose and descriptive-analytical method. The findings are provided by referring to library sources (Internet, books, etc.) and 96 cases of overlapping concepts of political geography and the World Cup using the method. Hermonetics has been discovered and identified from scientific documents and news. Findings show the main geopolitical concepts in the World Cup including: countries, players, coaches, spectators, sports media and political actors in national and international dimensions with the concepts of war, peace, patriotism, identity Divergent and convergent forces are geopolitical, geopolitical tensions and isolation. In the field of geopolitics, the concepts of World Cup, FIFA, football players, national team, hosting, match, group, competition for hosting, power, stadium, team tactics and football field with concepts of geopolitical field such as: world geopolitical system, UN, actors Geopolitics, country, geopolitical weight promotion, geopolitical competition, geopolitical region, geopolitical competition, power, geographical space, geopolitical strategy and geopolitical competition space correspond.

Iran and China have converged into cooperation as a result of the realities in political and spatial structures of power in Iran and the geopolitical realities governing the international system. Given the strategic importance of the comprehensive 25-year cooperation plan between Iran and China, this study adopted a descriptive-analytical method to analyze the political economy foundations of this agreement and identify the factors affecting the convergence of these two countries into signing the agreement. According to the results, the Chinese state employs neo-mercantilism to resolve the bottlenecks of its export-based economy and secure the imported energy sources in order to extend its influence on strategic areas such as the Persian Gulf. The results also indicated the factors encouraging Iran to sign this agreement with China. These factors are as follows: the nature of Iran’s governing political system, confronting the dominance and hegemony of the US, leaving isolation, harnessing the pressure exerted by the West, improving the resilience of the political system to the potential pressure exerted by the West in the future, enhancing the ability to take risks, and benefiting from China’s veto power in the UN Security Council. This study also aimed to determine the critical or beneficial conditions that the Iran–China agreement could bring to Iran. Finally, this agreement can provide Iran with certain benefits in the current era.

Economic and political convergence at the level of the region and neighbors can be seen as a new nature of relations between countries after the Cold War. This is because some countries no longer have the desire to continue being dependent on the Western or Eastern bloc and were looking for a new experience in cooperation and closeness with each other. Iran and India were not exempt from this view. India's geopolitical position and the lack of political and economic convergence with some of its close neighbors can be seen as a suitable situation for other countries such as Iran. Therefore, this research with a descriptive analytical method and using reliable library and internet sources seeks to answer the question, what role can India play in economic convergence with Iran from a geopolitical perspective? The results of the research indicate that three factors have caused the economic convergence of Iran and India, which are: India's divergence with China (border disputes and access to nuclear weapons), India's divergence with Pakistan (Kashmir conflict, river water issue, conflict Kargil and the conflict in Siyajn) and the special situation of Iran and Chabahar port and the non-intervention of the United States of America.

Measuring the level of power of countries and comparing them with each other is one of the topics studied in geopolitical knowledge. Geopolitical knowledge means the optimal use of geographical sources of power in relations between actors. Therefore, the main question of the research is how the economic power of France is compared to its regional competitors? To answer this question, the research method has been used descriptively-analytically and its purpose has been applied. The present study is conducted in two dimensions. In the first stage, the required information was studied through documentary study and libraries. Then, the goals, important strategies to achieve the goals and capabilities of France's economic power were entered into the Meta-SWOT software; Therefore, the purpose of this study is to examine the competitive advantage of French economic power compared to regional competitors in Europe. The results show that according to the advantages and capabilities of France in comparison with the countries in question, there is a kind of competitiveness that can depict the level of economic power of France according to the resources and capabilities of other countries in the region. The obtained results show that the most important advantages of France's power over competitors (Norway, Belgium, Croatia, Czech Republic, Germany, England, etc.) include innovation capacity, high-tech export, scientific technology level, investment attraction. Foreign and knowledge-based economies have been the most strategic resources and economic capabilities to become economic power, respectively. And variables such as doubts and uncertainty that people have about the social and economic situation, the existing economic structure, controlling high unemployment rates, slow economic growth are considered to be the most persistent problem facing the economic power of France. Global market dominance, global trade share with 4 points, Gini index with 3.9 points, GDP and overseas investment with 3.7 points, economic complexity with 3.6 points, high-tech exports with 3.5 points, respectively, the most strategic France's economic resources and capabilities have been to become an economic power. The comparison of France's level of competition with other European competitors showed that Norway, the United Kingdom, Germany, Sweden and Switzerland had the highest level of economic competition with France.

Every government, in order to build its territory and better manage its territory, takes appropriate political organization of the space; The political organization of each country's space is carried out in the form of country divisions. The purpose of this study is to investigate and analyze the function of country divisions in the implementation of land management programs in West Azerbaijan province. The research method is descriptive-analytical and applied and for data analysis, structural analysis model has been used for confirmatory factor analysis. Findings show that the database for the development of land use planning programs with a positive and direct effect of 0.74, country divisions as a basis for land use planning programs with a positive and direct effect of 0.79, providing resources and capacities Development and implementation of land management programs with a positive and direct effect of 0.84 that the component of resource supply has had a greater impact on the province's planning programs. Also, the indicators of accuracy and reliability of the information produced from the territorial zone of the province and zoning within the province based on official criteria with a direct score of 0.72 and the comprehensive territorial information item according to the current provincial divisions with a score of 0.68 have the most impact. . Within the indicators of providing resources and capacities of planning programs, the indicators of organizational capacity of managing the administrative-political divisions of the province (governor, governors, districts) to manage the development plans of the province with a score and direct impact of 0.76, It has had the greatest impact on the implementation of land management programs in the province because it is the organizational and administrative capacities that are responsible for the implementation of land management programs. As a result, it can be stated that zoning and divisions within the province, if not based on scientific and official indicators, the planning process that is consistent with these zoning will be difficult. Therefore, it is necessary to pay much attention to this issue and consider it in the center of attention for the implementation of decisions.

Borders are known as places where government institutions implement their own law in a variety of ways and forms. Given the different approaches to border control and management, it can be seen that this issue is still viewed as a security issue in developing countries, including Iran, and most of the approaches related to this are from a purely security perspective. The boundary view must be multidimensional and comprehensive. In this study, we seek to answer the questions of how land border management can be done. And which of the indicators of border management is more weighty and important? Therefore, the research method is a combination of Kendall, Demetel and AHP methods. The findings of the study show that we have five main components of border management in economic, cultural-social, civil, security-military and integrated management, and each of the seven components. Using these techniques, it can be stated that indicators such as identifying and identifying opportunities and identifying their fertility factors (0.1), studying and understanding the geographical location and spatial conditions of border regions (0.099), can be determined and determined. Identifying threats and identifying their roots and factors (0.098) and excluding border areas of isolation (0.096) are the most important. Therefore, it can be concluded that border management should be considered in combination with other factors, ie the application of only one approach, such as economic or security, cannot solve the problems of the country's border regions.

The universal existential philosophy of thought means the common view of all human beings, regardless of their political affiliation, as united citizens. In the world of thought, we are witnessing the emergence of a positive idea of ​​nurturing different commitments in different fields. The purpose of this study is to investigate the factors influencing global thinking. To achieve this goal, we used descriptive-analytical methods to explain the factors influencing global thinking. Then, using the Demetel technique, we evaluated the most important factors and their effectiveness and effectiveness. The research findings show that in this discussion three main economic dimensions (redistribution of wealth, size of government, land ownership, land main factor of production, economic freedom and production paradigm), socio-cultural (cultural dynamics, socialization of individuals, There are ethnic and local cultures, consumerism, identity and space-time) and politics (diplomacy dynamics, democracy, citizenship education, expectations revolution, political security and democracy). Variables such as expectations revolution (5.8747), democracy (5.4566), political security (5.2662), redistribution of wealth (4.8838), cultural dynamics (4.6675) indicate high interaction and strong systematic relationship with other variables. So these can be regarded as the most important consequences of global thinking. The paradigm variables of production (0.0695), diplomacy dynamics (0.1861), consumerism (0.0108), time-space (0.0401) are the cause of this system model and factors such as ethnic and local culture, socialization of people, land ownership, economy Collectivity, identity, and land are the main causes of this system's disabled production

Border regions have characteristics such as geographic isolation, distance from the poles of economic, industrial growth, marginalization as well as underdeveloped social, political, economic and cultural dimensions compared to the central regions of countries. One of the ways to develop and regulate these areas is the construction of border markets by governments. Border markets due to the contact of these areas with the external environment have caused spatial exchanges and links across borders and reduced vulnerability and threats in these areas. Therefore, the attention to the cross-border market has been of great importance to scholars of various sciences. Extensive research has been done to investigate the characteristics and dimensions of these markets. This article is a meta-analysis approach to review articles and theses published in pesion until 2018. Meta-analysis is used as a way to integrate the results of diffuse research into a new perspective for the development of human knowledge. Therefore, the findings of the study show that tourism, socio-economic development, economic-physical, political-security, regional sustainable development of the use of composite indicators are the strengths of the researches and lack of attention. The development of the areas, the increasing attention to the security aspects of the border areas, and the lack of reflective validity and reliability of the research method, are the weaknesses of the research. On the other hand, all research has only been theoretically concerned, and so far no practical view has been put forward by experts to strengthen the national border market.

Border regions are among the geographical spaces that, despite their high capacities, are sometimes ignored in proportion to their specific conditions. In recent years, tourism in border areas is one of these capacities that had received some attention, and further, it has formed the competitive advantage of tourism in these areas. Economically, tourism is undoubtedly one of the most important forms of power in the world, which is very important for developing countries. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to investigate the priorities of tourism development in the province of Paveh. The method is descriptive-analytical and the purpose is practical. The statistical population of the study included 18 tourism specialists from five cities of Paveh, Sardasht, Ilam, Shousha and Marivan. The present study is conducted in two dimensions. In the first stage, the required data and information were studied through the study of documents and libraries, including documents related to tourism. Then, goals, important strategies to achieve the goals and tourism capabilities of Paveh province were entered into Meta-SWOT software. The present study examines the level of tourism competitiveness of Paveh with four other competitors in two dimensions, which are: 1- Increasing the number of tourist arrivals 2- Revenue from tourism and based on these dimensions, the level of competitiveness of tourism in the border province Paveh is specified. Findings showed that based on the level of existing capabilities and comparing it with other competitors, Paveh province can be in the first place in both increasing the number of tourists and tourism revenue. The obtained results show that the most important advantages of tourism in the province are having a variety of climate, texture and special and unique architecture and educated manpower. On the other hand, the weakness of the countrychr('39')s diplomacy, conflicts between countries in the region, general management of the country, lack of proper infrastructure have been the biggest obstacles to tourism development in the province of Paveh, according to experts

The cyber revolution has created a space different from what has existed in the past, and has led to the emergence of international relations and communication between countries in different ways. As a result, this space has led to significant theoretical and practical developments that have made it important to study it. The purpose of this study is to provide a model for the environment created by the cyber revolution. The research has been done with qualitative approach and using the grounded theory method. For this purpose, after reviewing specialized literature related to the research topic, semi-structured interviews were conducted with 16 cybersecurity experts (academics and senior executives) to data saturation targeted sampling. The research findings through open and axial coding indicate that 355 open source codes, 100 axial codes and 17 categories are ultimately modeled as the core of the research with 5 contextual factors, 4 strategic factors, 2 Factor Ali and 6 outcomes were formulated. Finally, it can be argued that this creates significant and significant opportunities for countries and economic actors to understand the new situation internationally in terms of enhancing national power and effective actor and networking. Take action.

Cross-border cooperation brings together communities on both sides of the border, and this can potentially help transform them into developed communities. This study aims to investigate the factors affecting the continuation of border cooperation between Iran and the Kurdistan region of this region. It is necessary to pay attention to this issue, as the Kurds can be effective in the geopolitical future of the region and can be used as a force for the political balance of the region. The methodology of the present study is based on a positive paradigm and a quantitative method and seeks to identify the most important factors and variables affecting the continuation of border cooperation between the Iraqi Kurdistan region and Iran. For this purpose, the most important factors affecting the continuity of cross-border cooperation in 6 dimensions (territorial, geopolitical, political, social and cultural, economic and defense-military) were selected. The field findings of the present study, which were taken from the opinions of elites and experts related to border issues, showed that the 6 variables of natural border continuity between two countries, ideologies and strategies of two neighboring countries, common border resources, common language between residents Border crossings, international terrorism, etc. are among the most important variables affecting the stability of border cooperation between the autonomous region of Iraqi Kurdistan and Iran. Finally, it can be said that in order to improve the cooperation between the two regions, strategies and policies should be developed in accordance with the conditions of both regions in order to achieve stability in border cooperation and improve the situation in the region

The outbreak of coronavirus has had various effects on the geopolitical situation of the world. Therefore, given the negative effects of the coronavirus, planning to deal with its problems, it is necessary to examine the various scenarios of the advancement of the geopolitical structure of the world and strategies related to the various scenarios to be on the agenda. This research is applied in terms of purpose and its method is descriptive-analytical. Data analysis is based on futures research techniques, including interaction analysis. In this study, a total of 40 cases (uncertainties) have been considered for 8 key factors. The research findings show that among the developed scenarios, 11 strong and probable scenarios are the future progress of the geopolitical situation caused by the outbreak of Corona virus. Of 11 strong and probable scenarios, 4 scenarios are unfavorable, 2 scenarios are favorable, and 5 scenarios are static and intermediate. The results show that the probability of occurrence of negative states of the geopolitical structure of the world in the face of the Corona virus is twice as likely as the occurrence of favorable states. Therefore, according to the main goal of geopolitical knowledge, which is to design the best strategy in the relationship between actors, the most appropriate strategies should be considered in relation to the negative consequences of this virus.

The developments of the last decades of the twentieth century have paved the way for the growth of acting and the role of the economy in the global arena, and have given meaning to the concept of geoeconomics. Geoeconomics, which is the knowledge of designing and recreating actors' strategies using the geographical resources of power with economic nature in the relations of different scales, has become one of the leading fields of interpretation and analysis of global issues and the structure of power and actions between actors. Is. The prevalence of coronavirus has had various effects on the global space, and in the present study, an attempt has been made to analyze the scenarios facing actors in the global space by geoeconomic approach using the foresight method. In this study, an attempt has been made to study and analyze the geoeconomic effects of coronavirus outbreak on the structure of the world based on the foresight method. The present study is descriptive-analytical in terms of purpose, application and type of research method. The nature of the data is quantitative and qualitative, and the method of data and information collection is library, documentary, and survey. Data analysis is based on future research techniques, including the analysis of interactions. In this study, a total of 35 modes (uncertainties) were considered for 7 key factors. The results show that among the developed scenarios, 7 strong and probable scenarios, 4706 scenarios with poor adaptation to the future progress of the resulting geoeconomic situation.

Social power is of great importance among scholars of different sciences due to its importance in the sphere of individual and public life. On the other hand, this type of power can be considered as one of the dimensions of soft power that influences the national power of political-spatial structures. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to investigate the factors affecting social power and determine the coefficient of importance of each variable and finally rank countries accordingly. The research method has three main stages. In the first phase, library studies were written with reference to articles, books, and theoretical foundations of research. In the second phase, 77 internal and external experts referred to the field findings section to assess the significance of social variables affecting national power. Then, to measure the national qualitative variables, 30 foreign experts in social sciences, political sociology, etc. from India, France, China, Canada, etc. filled out a questionnaire designed online. Fischer maximum likelihood method was used to convert qualitative variables to quantitative. Then, considering the systematic and integrated approach of power, DEMATEL technique was used to determine the cause and effect relationships of the variables. Finally, 69 countries were ranked based on TOPSIS based on library and statistical data. The results showed that the United States with average (0.575), Switzerland (0.570), Norway (0.566), Sweden (0.526), Netherlands (0.522), New Zealand (0.487), England (0.482), Qatar (0.477), China (0.475) and India (0.468) rank first to tenth. The least significant were Vietnam (0.33), Nigeria (0.340), South Africa (0.347), Venezuela (0.353), Ghana (0.371), Ukraine (0.3718), Pakistan (0.376). Iran also ranks forty nine out of sixty-nine with an average (0.394).

International borders demarcation of territory and sovereignty of different political systems are always the most important political phenomena-space. One of the important aspects of the international borders, border disputes, which in many regions of the world in different forms visible and significant impact Brnv and relations between countries, so that the relations between the two countries may over a disputed border small dark and even the bloody wars of the end. The collapse of the Soviet Union that led to the formation of five independent republic in relation to national security issues and challenges facing border communities were independent. The question that arises is that what may have caused some outstanding border disputes than are other differences? The present cross-sectional study was conducted in the Central Asian region. borders performance, security and defense policies of different and sometimes conflicting, age boundaries, evolution .... the border and border disputes affect the region. According to weigh the factors affecting border disputes can be divided into three levels. Accordingly, to enable border disputes and challenges arising from it along the borders of Central Asia between the neighbors as much as possible reduce barriers to achieve national security and national interest, good control and manage the factors affecting border disputes they are graded with fully taken into account.

Today, cyberspace development has led to the emergence of virtual boundaries. In this sense, a realistic understanding of the security threats depends upon software factors that serve as a link between security environment of the states and hardware. In the age of communications and globalization, cyberspace and cyberterrorism pose as two major security threats to the states. This paper intends to study the impact of cyberterrorism on the nation’s virtual boundaries. It is an applied work in terms of objectives. This paper is based on a documentary research method, using library resources and note cards. Findings of this study indicate that high cyberspace capacities and potentials make it promising for terrorist groups to realize their plans such as attacking sensitive infrastructures, illegal access to classified information, information gathering, etc. in cyberspace environment. On this basis, given the very high number of internet users in the country on one hand, and manipulations by enemies outside the country on the other hand, the Islamic Republic of Iran needs to embark on management of strategic cyberspace boundaries to control cyberterrorism and abuse of this environment by terrorist groups. To that end, the government should promote the awareness of individuals and officials, strengthen cyberspace boundaries, reinforce local cyberspace infrastructures and most important of all, create the culture required for using cyberspace

The creation and development of cyberspace paves the way for challenges to security, interests and national identity, due to the presence and activities of individuals, groups and governments, And governments,in order to use the cyberspace capacities and reduce the damage and threats associated with it, conduct various strategies such as reducing the speed and so on. The evidence shows, that these strategies failed for various reasons. One of this attempts,which is the main theme of this study, is the development of cyber literacy required for cyber protection,in the field of passive defense. The main question of this study is that: is it possible to make use of the development of cyber literacy as a step for cyber protection,in the field of passive defense? And the hypothesis is that; the development of cyber literacy in the community, specially for the police forces, can be important in the process of preserving cyberspace. Therefore, this paper, using descriptive- analytical techniques, and using the library and online information, proposes the development of cyber literacy strategy, as a step to protect the country's cyber in the areas of passive defense in order to reduce the damage and threats posed by cyberspace. The results of this study suggests that as the strategy is based on the basic infrastructure, By raising awareness among individuals, communities, employees of organizations and governmental institutions, police and armed forces can provide necessary conditions to minimize the impact of cyber damages in the form of passive defense in the country's cyber protection
