Abstract

The power of a national government is maximized by combining hard and soft power. This combination, which is called SMART POWER, is emerged through coordinated military and economic action if there might be more attention to what others think. For example, today based on liberal ideas, IRAN cannot just by relying hard power convince other countries and world public opinion about its right reasons and actions. But taking advantage of the hard power factors, including having a long coast in Caspian Sea, Persian Gulf and Oman, and dominating on its strategic locations and locating in two major fields of energy of Persian Gulf and the Caspian Sea in the way of Caucasus and Central Asian countries to open water that create geopolitical capabilities and act in the geopolitical arena, in addition to the vigilance against the enemy, keeping the along with the idea of a multipolar world, regional convergence, conflict resolution, development orientation and relying on a gas and oil power that are important points in IRAN's soft power, can simultaneously operate more effectively in SMART POWER strategy. With regard to this issue, this research has used descriptive and systematic analysis which is drawn from political geography and political science practices and energy (oil and gas) geopolitical role has been considered to provide an appropriate strategy in IRAN's SMART POWER. The results of this study indicate that IRAN can increase its power by offering an appropriate strategy in SMART POWER, particularly emphasizing on more action in geopolitical energy (oil and gas) due to its importance in the today's world and having the second rate of these reserves in the world and imposing its behavior and own reasoning to other countries.
