Abstract
The Islamic Republic of Iran (hereinafter — Iran) is a unique state. It combines the functioning of republican institutions of state power along with religious specifics, due to the fact that in this state there is an official religion — Shia Islam of the Jafarite persuasion. When the Iranian constitution was created after the Islamic revolution of 1979, it fixed the presence of a religious-constitutional control of a body called the Guardian Council over the laws adopted by the parliament, which is one of the main manifestations of the Islamic nature of state power in Iran at the present time. It was this specificity of the state mechanism of Iran that served as the reason for the creation of the Expediency Discernment Council, because the practice of legislative activity has shown that sometimes the Parliament — the Islamic Consultative Assembly — and the Supervisory Board are not able to reach a compromise on about the law being passed. And this, in turn, led to a crisis in public administration, since, on the one hand, the need for legislative regulation of public relations remained, and on the other hand, there were no legal mechanisms for forcing the Parliament and the Guardian Council to make a balanced decision.
