The Role of Government in Providing the Context of Political Socialization from the Perspective of Nahj Al-Balaghah

survival of any government depends on the general popularity of the people and the acceptance of its elements by different social groups, and without an acceptable level of political socialization, the survival of the government faces difficulties.Political socialization is a process that is completely related to the behavior of the government and its elements, and the government is considered one of the influential factors in the realization of this process.This paper, which is conducted through using the capacity of the basic theory, seeks to analyze the role of government in creating the context of political socialization by referring to the teachings of the noble book of Nahj al-Balaghah.Imam Ali's speeches and sirah (lifestyle) in Nahj al-Balaghah have valuable points that facilitate the formation of political socialization.The research findings suggest that in order to achieve the desired political socialization, the government and its elements must first provide a suitable context for it by correcting their behaviors. In this regard, contexts such as focusing on monotheism, value, and truth, rightism, epistemology empowerment, transparency, and interactionism are among the contexts that are important in the sirah and words of Imam to prepare the political socialization of members of society.Moreover, he has insisted on managing government affairs and motivating agents and managers.
