Abstract :
Background and Aim: The purpose of this study was to determine the factors affecting the behaviors of the political elites of the Islamic Republic in cyberspace.Method: Research Method The present study is a documentary research method. The statistical population of the study includes the political elites of the Islamic Republic in cyberspace. The technique of collecting information is also taking notes.Findings: In a democratic country with good governance, the participation of political elites and the people has an effective role in formulating government policies in the public arena. A good government strives to provide a platform for the participation of all members of the community, as well as the political elite, in policy-making and the formulation of government strategies.Conclusion: Today, with the emergence of new communication media, attention has been drawn to using this information exchange platform to improve the participation and political activism of the elite and the public. In this article, with the aim of examining the factors affecting the behavior of elites in cyberspace, we tried to answer the question of what prerequisites and factors cause political elites to engage in political behavior and activism in cyberspace. It is obvious that a government based on democracy and high political and social participation needs to strengthen social and political interactions and actions among all sections of society, especially the political elite.
