Considering the importance and vital role of governance as a mechanism for the development of countries, the current research aimed to extract and introduce the features and characteristics of governance based on Mohammad Ali Foroughi's political opinions and thoughts as a historical doctrine. In this research, the interpretive paradigm and inductive approach were used. This research was exploratory and based on a qualitative method. The desired strategy for data collection was content analysis, and the data collection tool was the copying of documents, in which the book, letters, and manuscripts of Mohammad Ali Foroughi were analyzed as a statistical sample. The findings showed that the indicators of governance coordinates of Mohammad Ali Foroughi's opinions are numerous and diverse. These indicators were defined as the special achievement of the research on governance coordinates in the components of perceived integrity and integration of the ruler, democracy, citizen-centered, national maturity, learner, meritocracy, international policy maturity, and structural transparency, and were classified in the form of seven main categories, including meritocracy, national maturity, maturity of international politics, democracy, learning, structural transparency, and the perceived integrity of the ruler. These categories were introduced as governance features in Foroughi's political thoughts and opinions. These features can be extracted as a historical lesson and used for policy-making at different government and organizational levels. Based on these features, for using Foroughi's opinions and thoughts to optimize governance, policy making, and decision-making, suggestions were presented to the government and organization.

Nowadays, good governance is used on a wide scale from the local to the international level. Meanwhile, the local level is of particular importance. Considering the characteristics, such as the principle of decentralization, democratic structure, local and non-governmental planning, decision-making, increasing the role of non-governmental organizations and civil society, paying attention to the common interests of the people, distributing opportunities, and establishing social and geographical justice, increase the efficiency of the local government which can be considered a good and efficient example of good governance due to its special nature and functions. In this perception, decentralization (one of the pillars of the national government) is the most important and main goal of the local government in achieving good governance. The lack of good governance in the country, especially in rural areas, can be the source of many social problems in society. In the present study, an attempt has been made to investigate and evaluate the reasons for the failure of local governance in Iran in the rural areas of Zanjan Province. Descriptive-analytical method, field research, and survey method were used. The statistical population of the research consists of rural areas of the province.

Its validity was assessed by governors and district governors and its reliability was 0.84 using Cronbach's alpha. Data analysis was performed using SPSS software. The results showed that there is a direct and significant relationship between the limitations of rural areas and their failure. This relationship was confirmed by the intensity of the effect of 0.667.
