Abstract
The issue of women's political participation, especially in decision-making positions, is an issue that is related to the growth and promotion of the status of society. If we are looking for a balanced and, at the same time, developing society, we cannot close our eyes to it. This research answers the question: What are the components of the strategic model of women's political participation in high positions in the Islamic Republic of Iran? The method in this research is initially meta-synthesis، which was extracted and examined by focusing on models for increasing women's political participation. The methods of content analysis and document analysis were also used. The model was designed in accordance with what is stated in verse 21 of Surah Ar-Rum and presented as the "Couple-oriented Affection-based" model. A questionnaire was also used to verify the model. The findings show that a model has been presented that shows that "peace" and "tranquility" are desirable prospects for women's political participation in the Islamic Republic of Iran, which will be possible with the "affection" strategy. Its components in the "stability and survival" dimension include increasing women's political awareness and self-awareness and self-knowledge, preparing favorable conditions for the emergence of talents, reducing the gender gap, and women's political empowerment. In the "development and satisfaction" dimension, it includes social and political responsibility and trust in women's effectiveness in the Islamic system, political mobility, political independence, and political fertility. In the "beautification" dimension, it includes women in the position of social guardianship and women in the position of managing wills and building the world.
