Abstract
"People Involvement" In ideologies and systems related to democracy, especially religious democracy, is the common concept which creates a visible difference between democrat systems and non-democrat systems. People Involvement as an important concept is a justification for democrat and religious democrat states and from this perspective, it is possible to create different expression regarding to democracy. According to this article, there are two main perspectives related to justification of people involvement. In this case, there are two patterns; "Single-dimensional" legitimation pattern and "Multi-dimensional" legitimation pattern. The first one oversees one aspect of government like the competence of the ruler or process of acquiring power and enforcing it, and the second one oversees all aspects of the government like conclusions and effectiveness in addition to the previous case. In this article, G.T. methodology has been used. The Ayatollah Khamenei's position is considered as the second group where legitimation is a multi-dimensional pattern and oversees four dimensions of government.
