- Iran regularly holds parliamentary elections. But what influence does the parliament have on Iranian politics? Iran's political system intertwines republican and theocratic institutions. Ideologies face each other; domestic and foreign policy crises are the order of the day. How politics works in the Islamic Republic is explained in three minutes.
The animation is stunningly beautiful!
No
Very True. Beautifully done.
The reality is ugly af but the visuals of this short animation is just so beautiful.
It is not that the elections in Iran are ineffective. Certainly, if President Rouhani had not been elected, JCPOA would not have signed. (Naturally, the Iranian system is more open than the USSR system.)
@@slim_meri7405 no it's not! Please take it from me, we have no choice in anything. There are no real political parties or politicians that work for people and if lived here you could see that 100% of the system is illegitimate.
Well ordinary Iranians, in no country in the world ordinary people influence their state politics. People can change but the strategical decisions can’t, which are the ones who affect our lives the most.
Good video !

Wish you'd mention the killings and arrestes as results of protesting
You mean what's happening in the West rn?
Where’s the Saudi Arabia video made by the same content creators ??
lol exactly 😂.
the saudis get a pass for them not being democratic.
Because there's nothing confusing about an absolute monarchy. But a dictatorship mascaraed as a democracy has even its own citizens questioning how it works.
this is spot on.
Thanks 🙏🙏

This so accurate and well explained, coming from an Iranian.
It's biased in it's explanation though.
@@alirezabhmanabadi4235 no
It's true
coming from another Iranian
@@gorg5494 doubt....
I think it's really cool and interesting, as an American. It's a democracy checked by religion, making it 10x more 'free' than our "allies and partners in the region," plus I've learned that average Iranians actually like Americans a lot, they like everyone. I did a report on Iran's government in high school where we had to research 3 foreign governments and present on them. In theory it's not a bad system; there is will of the people but it's checked by moral values. The people having the vote and complete control over issues doesn't always end well; the people aren't usually very educated.
obviously biased not facts. Western powers is longing for the eradication of the Islamic republic. Look what they did to Iraq, Libya. Iran won't be fooled 🇮🇷❤
IRAN has its rights to defend its self
Not all Iranians agree with this system. For example, Mohammad-Ali Abtahi (who was vice president from 2001 - 2004), believes that this system restricts the voting power and the ability to reform the country, or change it's political institutions. University students and the middle class have protested against the institutions as well, citing that it restricts the people's will. The only people in Iran who want this system to continue are either Islamist extremists or are part of one of the unelected offices in power, and those people have the most influence.
Abtahi is joker 😂
So in every country in the world everybody agrees with the system?
Dictatorship system, neo-Nazi, tyranny and the like
to answer the question, "It doesn`t work"
@Mustafa Iraq Iran hasn't progressed, it has stagnated socially and politically. The laws in Iran have stunted political freedoms and beliefs, where the only acceptable belief is Shia Islam.
@Mustafa Iraq It is not arrogance. Iran is a constitutional dictatoship.
Iranian democracy is near Western democracy, but there is more religion and more separation of powers.
@@chinggiskhan6678 Why should "progress" be the main value or religion? In Iran Shiism is a state religion, because the people believe in Islam. But Christianity, Judaism and Zorastrianism are also free religions.
@@user-uw7ji9sg6s Why should maintaining traditional values be the main value?
It's accurate
Who appoints members to "assembly of experts" to choose next suprime leader??
@@Arjun-yw7sw They are voted for by the people BUT everyone of them have to accepted by the guardian council, and the guardian council is chosen by the supreme leader himself.
@@szemjuelhont3574 but the supreme leader is elected by the past council of experts.
@@Arjun-yw7sw simply put, it's a dictatorship and There are no "legal" ways of real change not even in the slightest
Who appoints members to "assembly of experts" to choose next suprime leader??
The current supreme leader
@@szemjuelhont3574 no, people.
@@user-uw7ji9sg6s no, the supreme leader chooses half of that council. If the supreme leader doesn't want someone to be supreme leader they won't become one
@@szemjuelhont3574 What? You don't know the Iranian system. The Supreme Leader appoints half of the Guardian Council (also called the Constitutional Council). The Guardian Council is not the Council of Experts. Iranian people elects the Council of Experts. The Council of Experts elects the Supreme Leader.
This system is similar to the American system. There are Electoral College.
@@user-uw7ji9sg6s yes true, but the guardian council has to approve all of the experts elected in to the council. Meaning if the supreme leader doesn’t want someone to get in. They won’t.
It's exactly true
They forgot two important institutions. Supreme National Security Council and Expediency Council. In particular, the Expediency Council is a parallel body to the Guardian Council, and many laws rejected by the Guardian Council are approved by the Expediency Council. It is true that the members of the Expediency Council are appointed by the Supreme Leader, but in principle the Expediency Council is a place where the Supreme Leader engages people with an angle to the system to prevent possible blows to the system.
This video fails to mention that the religious authorities decide who can run for political office. As such, elections are meaningless in Iran.
Supreme leader, "Pope" Of iran
As a Iranian, I tell you that this video is so TRUE...
and who controls the money system? The banks? Are they borrowing money from international markets?
It is 100% true.
Failed State iran
It's more of 70% true than a 100% true.
دروغ پروپاگاندا
Har har har. A few protesters complaining, even if it was 10% of the population, does not determine how things should go. France has protests like Iran too, why don't we encourage revolution over there? Right now even Israel has these protests.
This is not completely accurate. "Guardian Council" has 12 members. The supreme leader chooses six members of the "Guardian Council" directly, and he selects another six indirectly (they are chosen by the head of judiciary who is appointed by the supreme leader himself). The assembly of experts is an exclusive assembly in which only clergymen can be nominated for + they are only nominated after receiving confirmation from the "Guardian Council".
The nature of this circular power structure is what empowers the dictatorship in Iran. I grew up in Iran and this is a part of civics course that you learn in middle school in Iran. This doesn't sound democratic, does it????
It will not surprise me if the references of this video is media articles, raw media propaganda video, nice animations tho
do you live in sweden, also, are you white swedish?
I live in Iran, and i can confirm all the content of this video. So don't debate.
very accurate
So a parliamentary elective monarchy?
no, not a monarchy because its not supposed to be hereditary
Yeah it’s much more democratic than most countries but the west prefer poor puppet states
@@LeNumero10Tv It this the polar opposite of a democracy
well, parliamentary elective absolute monarchy
No it's a combination of an elective meritocratic theocracy and a representitive Islamic democracy combined together but people choose both of the representitives after qualification for competence and pity are done.
The only difference is that the theocratic leader is lifetime elected and the president is elected for 4 years but both of them can be resigned by the people, the meritocratic theocrats council and the peoples representitives if the majority of them were against their leadership.
Well very worn animation. Khamenei has a hand that doesn't work properly. So he will his other hand to turn off the media.
Too bad the video doesn't list sources
What needs sources
Yes this is our system
Why are you lying even your name isn't iranian
@top military stfu. every single Iranian which lives in that miserable country can confirm this information. Basijie sandiskhor
@@topmilitary2747 عرزشی؟
you didn't mention that the parliament and president candidates most validate by Guardian Council
which is 12 person.
6 elected directly by the supreme leader and 6 by judicial chief which is also elected by the supreme leader.
this election does not represent the Iranian views toward governments.
this is just for pro-regime supporters to say that we have Democracy in Iran.
this election is just like Venezuela and Syria's other totalitarian systems around the world.
and once for all we don't have hardliner and reformist in Iran, they are just puppets which is working for same ideology
The part you didn't mention and got wrong is 6 other people chosen in the council are elected by the parliament, 3 introduced candidates in a year will get elected (not individually) and the next year the 3 other members get introduced and then elected by the parliament; the judicial chief only introduces them but the parliament is the one to elect them or not.
Also half of them are lawyers (introduced by judicial chief and then elected by the parliament) and the other half are theocrats (elected by the supreme leader).
False information. 6 of them elected by parliament just like any other democratic country.
@@mj-ss7kz Those 6 people get elected by judicial chief but it's candidates are designated and chosen by parliament.
@@alirezabhmanabadi4235 as you said, final selection made by parliament. this is what realy matters. Judicial chief SUGGESTS candidates to parliament.
also remember, assembly of expert choose by people?!!
Their ingenuity should be verified by the Guardian Council, which interesting enough, have its members assigned by the Supreme Leader.
@@hosseynnajafi718 but the supreme leader is elected by the past council of experts.
They keep each other in power. A cycle. A dirty deal
In Iran, religious people are united and make up at least half of Iran's people, but secular people are not united, that's why their rebellion for women failed. If democracy is similar to the United States in Iran, the mullahs will still come to power because half of the Iranian people will vote for them, this is a fact that the seculars outside of Iran ignore. I'm Persian 🇮🇷
Iranian government not a dictator ship
Iranian culture is key to all Humanity.
Culture: Maybe but Religion and Government: Nah

not at all! This is not the policy of Iran

Your ignorance of politics in Iran is profound.
In what way? Seems pretty factual to me

Iran has the most elections in the asia. Also the power of government is underestimated in this video.
Of course every thing belongs to Mullah Government. Poor Iranian people
Sham controlled elections with powerless officials
people still vote for the system...just they need majority vote to change expert seats in their favor to pick next supreme leader that favor the people again like the first one did...its very complicated system that republicans always change the goal post its what they loved the system that force democrats have their leaders what they want while they get absolute power by upper seats that only trump decides all matters
Most of the people including me never vote under this dogmatic system. But those who do are obligated by the government and if they don't so they would lose their jobs related to the government or influenced by the government. Election here is not more than a joke.
Lol
Thank you for telling all the cia talking points.

This is just a propaganda
true
Yup, so we can feel better that we live in a "democracy".
No it isn't. This is how the Iranian political system works in practice. Trying to prove otherwise would be blasphemy according to Iran.
You can compare between Irak before and After democracy Lol
some kinda propaganda
🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
feal bad..
Poor journalism.
2,40 Its not correct!! Parliament members and the presidency candidates first elected by the guardian council ( shoraye neghahban) and THEN people can choose between those elected candidates in the hands of guardian council! Therefore there is no free election. In the system of this totalrioum regime there is no free political party exist. You as an Iranian should believe the leader as a leader who has total power and you as a member of this political system without any questions you should follow his orders in every level of this society. If not then this system will put you aside and even if this member of political system complain about the decisions of the leader, then you should explain it to the security force and if still you stay on your point, then you will land in the jail or worse you can lose your life. There is not even limited freedom in this society and the security force they involve themselves in every level of the life of the people in Iran, Even how you choose your clothes to wear till your religion and etc.
nicely explained. Iran needs a change fast

Where is the "discrimination" women in Iran? Women are required to wear hijabs because religion and morality. Otherwise, women are equal to men.

How? There is truth in everything, even in media articles. Even if its not 100% accurate, there are events that are indisputable. Iran deserves better.

It’s pretty much a a parliamentary monarchy. It would’ve been an ok system if the people fully and freely elect the council that will elect the next supreme leader.
And also empowering the elected president/Parliament would’ve been sweet.
Compared to what you (don't) haven't kn Somali? Yeah probably
best system! my ass :) lol
