Abstract

This study aims to explore non-static, Indigenous and how-to indicators in the successful experience of the organization of Jihadsazandegi. The research method is qualitative. Documentary and library studies were used to collect the necessary data. The Ostrom's institutional analysis model was used to analyze the findings based on four characteristics of actors, institutions, society and services. The research findings include a set of components related to the organization of constructive jihad that can be used in the field of its development and progress, including: indicators of changing common Iranian-Islamic social rationality, the ability of the power elite and the alignment of official and informal Iranian-Islamic institutions. The first indicator of changing social rationality from utilitarianism to critical value orientation emphasizes social rationality instead of visual and instrumental rationality and has normative, political and moral tensions. The second indicator is a change in the ability of the power elite. The awareness and knowledge of the political elite in choosing the right model of progress in an opportunity for change, along with the ability to consensus, forms the components and elements of this indicator. The third indicator is the alignment of formal and informal institutions. Formal social institutions need to align with informal institutions in the belief of the political elite and the people and the cultural heritage of that society to achieve them.
