Notes
The institution of Hesbeh had been recognized as one of the basic governmental – municipal institutions before the establishment of modern municipality activities in Iran. However, in that era of Iran's history the city administration system was not based on local governments. But its operation and supervision system was integrated and there was not any disagreement in the implementation and supervision on religious, moral, social, economic, judicial and security affairs. In the other words, implementation and monitoring tasks were assigned to Hesbeh institution. Comparing the responsibilities of Hesbeh institution and modern urban management in Iran is of great importance due to new areas that it can offer to today's urban management. This comparative investigation uses multi-synthetic method derived from the combination of recent studies and researches on the responsibilities of Hesbeh institution. Conceptual model resulting from the above-mentioned multi-synthetic method indicates that essential responsibilities of Hesbeh are as follows: supervision on judicial-security affairs, monitoring religious-moral affairs, organizing social-economic affairs. Through this comparison a new aspect called "cultural aspect" can be added to the operational areas of urban management in which controlling and managing cultural and moral issues of society are considered as its new duty.
