Good and ethical governance has been proposed as one of the drivers of economic growth and development in the monetary system of countries and has attracted the opinion of policymakers in the banking system in order to improve productivity and financial stability. The present article, while classifying ethics, examines its function in the relationship between governance and financial stability of banks. In other words, Islamic and conventional banks were considered as the environment of ethics based on Sharia and conventional ethics, respectively.

The research method was quantitative-descriptive-correlation. The statistical population of the present study consists of banks in countries that, in addition to conventional banking, also provide Islamic banking services to customers. The research sample included banks from the United Arab Emirates, Malaysia, Qatar, Bahrain and Indonesia, and Iran was added to the research environment due to special conditions in the monetary system. The sampling method was stratified random. By referring to documents, records and library studies, data were collected and the results were analyzed by performing regression statistical test.

The results show that in banks where Sharia-based ethics prevail, political stability and government effectiveness have a significant relationship with financial stability. Also, in banks where conventional ethics prevail, the rule of law and the control of corruption have a significant relationship with financial stability.

Increasing the quality of public services, reducing bureaucracy, eliminating the direction of financial resources through political pressures and controlling sectarian differences will help the financial stability of Islamic banks and strengthen Sharia-based ethics. Conventional banks can also contribute to financial stability and improve ethics by focusing on stakeholder self-control.

The term “privatization” has not been defined in our laws. Privatization is a complicated and vague concept featuring various political, social, economic and legal aspects and outcomes. Before and after the Islamic Revolution, our legislator’s approach has been towards the domination of public and state ownership. But, a larger deal of attention was gradually paid to privatization due to numerous reasons such as domestic and foreign factors including the prevention of public and state sectors’ monopoly, stagnation of the society, downsizing of the government, valuing the private sector and entry to global trade and markets. The objective and distinct examples of such an approach is the Act 44 of the constitution and Islamic Republic of Iran’s first to sixth economic, social and cultural development plans. The most important objective of privatization has been enhancement of the entities’ efficiency and optimization of resource allocation in the majority of the countries. Valuing the privatization is in fact supplementing the state and public proprietorship. Such an overlap can remove the gaps and impediments and concomitantly put into effect all the national talents and competencies. The present study aims at elaboration of the adopted by value – legal analysis of Islamic Republic of Iran’s governance approach towards the process and concept of privatization.

According to Fiqh, political security means "the tranquility and peace of influential figures” to gain political rights and perform political duties to achieve prosperity in this world and the hereafter. It can be measured by various indices. Political security indices are, in fact, the criteria of assessing the extent of the benefit a community gets from political security while comparing current situation with the ideal situation in order to design appropriate strategies and identify the type of duty. Therefore, the research findings which are based on a descriptive-analytical method show that according to Imamiyyah Fiqh, political security in Islamic society is measured by such criteria as: existence of government, just leadership, stability and public participation in social activities.

The Islamic Republic of Iran was established based on a religious theory and its constitution was also developed based on religious concepts such as the Unity of God, Justice, Imamat, and Resurrection. On the other hand, the constitution sets the ground for the organization of the essential institutions and primary values, and guarantees the citizens’ freedoms. Although at first glance the constitution is considered a legal document with legally normative functions, we can now see the appearance of ethical points – mostly religion-based – in this supreme document. These ethical points can be considered as conditions for the rulers, a clarification of their required qualifications, and standards for the evaluation of their governance. Adopting an ethical approach, the article at hand aimed at investigating the basic existential philosophy of the constitution as well as the principles mentioned in it, and tried to show that ethical teachings exist explicitly and implicitly in the constitution of the Islamic Republic of Iran and continue to support it. It is even possible to give in an ethical interpretation of institutions such as the constitution and the separation of powers.

The governance of cyberspace is one of the newly added topics to the political science and law. The governance of existing cyberspace, which is organized in the bed of the global internet, is one of the most challenging issues of the contemporary world. The religious nature of the Islamic Republic of Iran requires that, to propose the duties of the Islamic government in the management of cyberspace with regard to the foundations of Islamic jurisprudence. The principles of the constitution, derived from the dynamic Islamic jurisprudence, indicate that the Islamic Republic system has duties; such as: denial of domination, rejection of colonialism totally, prevention of the penetration of aliens, providing the conditions for self-sufficiency in the fields of science, technology and industry and creating suitable conditions for the growth of moral virtues. Using a descriptive-analytical and Ijtehadi method, and given the dominance of the aliens on cyberspace in two platforms of structure and content, this paper seeks to study the important duties of the Islamic Republic system towards this new phenomenon such as, creating the national information network, establishing the system of Imamate and the Ummah through co-operation with other Islamic countries, under the light of the juridical rule of "nafy al-sabil" (denying the domination of unbelievers over believers) and the constitutional principles of the Islamic Republic of Iran.

Happiness is one of the key terms used by philosophers, in general, and by Islamic sages, in particular. From ancient Greek philosophers to the thinkers advocating monotheistic religions and Islamic philosophers, all have dealt with the issue of human happiness. In the view of the majority of philosophers, the ultimate goal of politics and establishing a government is attaining happiness. However, this concept has been defined differently by different thinkers. In this paper, the author has tried to explore the place of happiness in the philosophy of ‘Allamah Tabataba’i, the distinguished contemporary philosopher and interpreter of the Qur’an. In his view, a society attains happiness when it moves in the line of human primordial nature (fitrah) and the system of creation. A religion which has been sanctioned by God is the extension of a detailed primordial nature which exists in our nature. Thus religion – Islam – is the criterion for distinguishing faith and good deed. Accordingly, a society will attain worldly and otherworldly happiness if it is ruled by a religion which conforms to Man’s primordial nature.

Good governance is a new pattern for a stable human development which empowers societies to utilize their capabilities for a comprehensive development. Civil society along with a dynamic, powerful and expansionist state could further the basis of developing good governance and therefore comprehensive development with the least possible damage. Scholars have postulated six factors for the realization of “Good Governance” including: Legalism, transparency, accountability, efficiency and effectiveness, partnership seeking, justice-orientedness, anti-corruption, lenience and toleration. In this regard, this research tries to extract, review and evaluate the indices of good governing by probing in the practical and theoretical tradition of Imam Ali (A.S.) using descriptive-analytical method.

One of the fundamental issues of political philosophy in Islam is the question of components of legitimacy of sovereignty. In this paper, “legitimacy” means rational justification of “exerting authority and obedience” and its components means the elements according which a ruler or rulers of a society enjoy the right of issuing a command and of being obeyed. Given the fact that divine sovereignty is explained in terms of creation and legislation in the Holy Quran, the present paper, using a thematic interpretation method, refers to the Quranic verses and reviews such elements as “inherent superiority”, “real authority and ownership”, “infallible science”, and “the right of manipulation in the realm of government” which are, according to the Quran among the components of the right of sovereignty.

Avicenna is one of the prominent thoughtful characters of the Islamic world who has always attempted to make his philosophical theories compatible with Islamic teachings. In fact, Islam has been a source of inspiration for him in many of his philosophical ideas. He believes that desirable governance would be realized along with the presence of prophet; therefore, in order to explain the necessity of Islamic governance, he proposes the theory of text-based raised caliphate and imamate. Then, provided that a text-based raised imam or caliph is not presented, he discusses the role of the jurists of full needed qualifications. Having an analytic view, the paper attends to Avicenna’s idea in this filed as well as its achieved results.
