Summary/Abstract: The Taliban's Islamic Emirate system represents an unconventional political model in the contemporary era, characterized by a lack of clear definition regarding its type, nature, and organizational structure. This study aims to provide a clearer understanding of the Islamic Emirate system, especially its nature, structure, and features. The findings of this study show that the Taliban Islamic Emirate system has characteristics such as autocratic-totalitarian tendencies, personalized governance, systematic disregard for the rule of law, patriarchal tendencies, and a tendency to monopolize power. These identified features contribute to a more comprehensive understanding of this enigmatic system.
