Jihadist management and resistive economy in the defense industry provide defensive deterrence through the internal construction of power under the patronage of the Supreme Leader. In the present research, the authors were seeking to present a pattern of Jihadist management in the defense industry and then examined the impact of Jihadist management on the resilient economy. Therefore, the main aim of this research is to provide a model of Jihadist management in terms of resilient economy in the defense industry of Islamic Republic of Iran. This research is an applied research. The statistical population included the defense industry staff. Sampling was done decisively to select experts. The results of the research showed that Jihadist management has a positive and significant impact on resistive economy. Finally, the applied suggestions resulting from the research were provided in order to implement Jihadist management and resistive economy in the defense industry.

Since the formation of the Islamic Revolution and then the beginning of the imposed war, some jihadists and staff of the armed forces have been martyred or lost, become veteran and Azadeh. Therefore, a part was formed as a "combat cooperative" in the body of the armed forces. The main aim of this research is to achieve "how to achieve the strengthening of the defense foundation through consideration of the role and activities of the combat cooperation during the Holy Defense. " Based on this objective and with regard to the theoretical issues regarding war, defense foundation and measures of the combat cooperation, the conceptual model (three-fold variables of dimensions of the Combat cooperation based on the dependent variable indices such as defense foundation enhancement) was considered. This research was of applied-developmental kind and was conducted using an mixed method with an exploratory approach and conducting an expert meeting and in-depth interviews with holy defense commanders, a the questionnaire was distributed among the selected provinces among the holy defense warriors (Quota Sampling). The validity of the instrument was measured by the Lavosh method and for model test a regression analysis was conducted. Finally, regarding the precise study of documents and open interviews with the experts in the field of combat cooperation and holy defense operations, as well as inspiration from the discussions and negotiations of the "Session of expertise", the issues and questions of the future wars in the form of two scenarios "post-industrial wars" and " asymmetric wars were considered and the role and function of "the combat cooperation" was raised in these two scenarios.

Defensive innovation is a set of technological, procedural, and operational concepts that seek to increase military effectiveness and include the core capabilities and activities of an organization. The connection between these capabilities and military plans is to tackle the new challenges and to adjust the organization's missions based on the new capabilities. Regarding this issue, the aim of this research is to identify the most important components and indicators of defense innovation and creativity in the Army of Islamic Republic of Iran inspired by the religious resources and the guidance of the Supreme Leader. The nature of the research is exploratory and regarding the achievement of the research it is an applied study. The statistical population of the research, in the first step, is the use of religious resources and documents related to the speeches of the Supreme Leader, and in the second step, 112 commanders and experts of the Army of the Islamic Republic of Iran. Also, the sample size was 86 according to the Cochran formula. In this research, documents and leaflets and questionnaires were used for collecting information and the required data were collected using library and field methods. By studying the religious sources and 109 lectures given by the Supreme Leader, 64 indicators and 10 components were extracted through using content analysis method. The results of the research show that the most important components of the defensive innovation and creativity in the military include science courage, militarism morale and Basiji thinking, knowledge management, innovation management, elite management, learning organization, research and development, science production, worship and faith, trust and belief in God.

The strategic pattern of the architecture of the armed forces is a coherent model that can be attained by the logical tuning of the domains and strategic components and the relationships between them. This model can be examined in five areas of upstream documentation, environment recognition, alternative futures, future requirements, and architectural knowledge. Since regarding the discussion of environmental awareness, military dimension can be one of the important factors in this field; therefore, the main aim of this research is to identify the components of the military dimension and to define its relationship with the strategic model of the architecture of the armed forces. This research is an applied-developmental study, which is conducted with a mixed approach using case-ground approach. The statistical population of the study is 36 individuals. The size of the statistical sample is considered as the total number due to the limited statistical population. Validity of the questionnaire was measured through the community of elite and its reliability using Cronbach's alpha was 0. 76. The results show that the present armed forces of the I. R. of Iran, defensive-security environment of the influential actors and war scene are the most principal components of military dimensions, and this dimension has a direct, positive impact on the strategic model of the armed forces. In a way that lack of this factor will jeopardize the strategic pattern of the armed forces architecture.

This research is in line with the essential question: What is the knowledge-based model of the army of the Islamic Republic of Iran? After studying theoretical and historical foundations, dimensions and components, identification, the data and the findings were analyzed. The research regarding its achievements was an applied and regarding its aim it was a descriptive-analytical, and the data were collected using a survey method. The statistical population of the study included the academic experts and military commanders of the Islamic Republic of Iran. Data were collected by simple random sampling and judgmental sampling. Data were collected by field and library method and using a questionnaire tool. The significance of this issue as a transition from a resource-based organization to a knowledge-based approach to macro policies in upstream documents, the research findings suggest that focusing more on a special structure can make the Islamic Republic of Iran's army more accessible to becoming a knowledge-based entity. The results indicated that the conceptualization model of the knowledge-based of the Army of the Islamic Republic of Iran include the "infrastructural dimensions of the knowledge organization" and "process dimensions of the knowledge organization" as the main independent variables and "knowledge societies", "intellectual capital", "temporary special structure" and "knowledge strategies" as the mediator variables in this model. Finally, the "Knowledge-based Organization" is considered as a dependent variable.

Present research on assessing and ranking of countries in terms of military power has many downsides and weaknesses, including the use of customized indicators and weights, and the use of a simple algorithm for rating (such as averaging) pointing which, as a result, will not have the credibility, desirability, and integrity of the country. In addition, the assessment and valuation of the military power of countries requires the reflection on a variety of quantitative and qualitative criteria that will undeniably result in the use of new methods and models of decision making with a hybrid approach. Therefore, the present research aims to provide a scientific framework for assessing and evaluating the military power of countries with the aid of the localized indices and weights, so as to know the current status of different countries, it is possible to compare and analyze their weaknesses and strengths in order to exploit them in possible threats and future wars. For this purpose, 30 effective measures were identified in the first step by examining the research background, and after the three steps of the Delphi process, 12 effective measures were selected. Then, with the help of purposeful sampling and a survey of 42 commanders and senior managers of the organization and using the hierarchical analysis technique, weights of the criteria were extracted. In order to fully describe the proposed model, 18 countries with a water and land border with Islamic Republic of Iran, along with the United States and the Zionist regime were selected as research options and evaluated and ranked with the help of Promethee technique. Finally, with the help of analytical and graphical capabilities and tools, the status of countries is reviewed in comparison with other options and different criteria, and suggestions are made to increase the power of analysis and improve the military capabilities of the I. R of Iran.
