Abstract
The current research has followed the comparative investigation of the future studies of the political dimension of good governance in the ummah-imamate system and the liberal democracy system. In this research, the point of view of the liberal democracy system and the point of view of the ummah-imamate system about the political dimension of good governance have been examined in a comparative or comparative method, and the similarities and differences of the two systems have been extracted and explained in this regard. The findings showed that although the term good governance has been proposed in recent years in political gatherings, this concept has received the attention and approval of Islam centuries ago, and it is more interesting that the indicators of desirable governance have been proposed more accurately and comprehensively in Islam. The results showed that there are similarities between good governance from the point of view of the liberal democracy system (West) and good governance with the approach of the ummah-imamate system (Islam), but these two categories have serious and deep differences with each other, which are the most important and fundamental These differences are the one-dimensionality (materiality) of good governance in the West and the two-dimensionality (materiality and divineness) of good governance with an Islamic approach.
