The system is unique as its roots of its legitimacy are traditional, charismatic and rational-legalistic. Today, Iranian political structure was developed by the teachings and models of Imam Khomeini which consists on the combination of Islamic theocracy and with bits of democracy on the thoughts of Max Weber. Max Weber considers the importance of strong legitimacy for political order’s constancy. The concept of Max Weber about legal legitimacy relating to democratic legitimation chucks the new light on the theoretical legitimacy discrepancy in transnational power that sorts it to look less histrionic.
