Components of Public Trust and Social Capital: Analytical Approach to Nakesin Movement in Nahj al-Balaghah

The establishment of the Islamic Republic and the introduction of policies such as seeking justice, anti-oppression, and adherence to religious teachings have caused general thoughts, particularly the educated, to pay attention to these policies and methods of dealing with share-seekers. At the same time, the comprehensive implementation of justice as the important pillar of social capital is one of the most significant factors of public trust and soft power components of the Islamic Republic. In the meantime, one of the common ideals of the Islamic Republic and the Alevi government is justice and share-seeking. One of the symbols of this way of thinking in the Alevi government was Nakesin. Considering the ideal similarity, the same challenge and thinking is also evident in the Islamic Republic. This research with a descriptive-analytical method, using library resources tries to express the characteristics and goals of Nakesin as a representative of the above-mentioned thoughts and the opinions of Imam Ali (AS). It also aims to pay attention to the components of increasing public trust based on Nahj al-Balaghah, which has been neglected so far. Based on the results obtained, the most important factors for achieving ideals are justice, rejection of share-seeking, and the use of factors that increase public trust, based on the recommendations of Imam Ali (AS).
