In the challenging landscape of the international system—where global powers employ sophisticated tools such as multilateral sanctions, hybrid warfare, psychological operations, and hegemonic diplomacy to undermine the sovereignty of independent states—the issue of independence has emerged as a strategic challenge in Islamic political theorizing. Many Islamic governments, despite possessing substantial material resources, remain structurally dependent on the dominant global order. This predicament stems primarily from the absence of a coherent, indigenous theoretical framework for conceptualizing and achieving independence. From this perspective, examining theoretical models grounded in Islamic wisdom and the views of contemporary political philosophers can fill this gap and provide an epistemic response to this foundational issue. Employing a conceptual-descriptive analytical method, this study examines the ideas of contemporary political philosophers such as Imam Khomeini, Ayatollah Motahari, and Ayatollah Javadi Amoli. It addresses the central question: How can material and managerial assets secure the infrastructure of an Islamic government’s independence in the contemporary world order? The findings reveal that material assets—as the tangible, objective foundations of the Islamic government’s independence—can be identified across three key axes: (1) Self-reliant scientific authority, entailing the development of knowledge and technology based on endogenous resources and independence from scholarly currents tied to domineering powers; (2) Security-creating defensive power, emphasizing deterrent capabilities against external threats;
(3) Resilient deterrent economy, functioning as a national-capacity-based economic system that withstands external pressures such as sanctions and economic warfare, thereby safeguarding the country’s livelihood, production, and currency independence. In contrast, managerial assets—encompassing sage governance, participatory governance, and ummah diplomacy—activate and optimize these foundations. The study’s ultimate contribution is a systematic, dialectical model that presents the interlinkage of material and managerial assets as two complementary pillars of the Islamic government’s independence. This model is not only theoretically explicable but also holds significant potential for macro-level policymaking in confronting the global hegemonic system.
