The diversity of various class, ethnic, racial, and religious divides, along with structural and managerial inefficiencies faced by most countries in Southwest Asia, significantly disrupts national cohesion and unity. This creates a foundation for various anti-security actions by opponents, and the security management infrastructure loses its effectiveness due to crises of legitimacy, participation, identity, influence, and distribution. This leads to fragmentation instead of national cohesion and unity, inability to mobilize resources and capabilities, weakness in policy-making, and lack of consensus in implementing security policies. Meanwhile, the balance of power system in the region is practically subject to conflicts and power struggles among regional and global powers, resulting in a dynamic and unstable security order and security building in the region. Therefore, it is necessary to outline an optimal approach for security building in the region, considering the laws and considerations of the balance of power. The Resistance Axis in Southwest Asia, as a power player and a geopolitical force, influences regional interactions and dynamics, transforming and dynamizing the region's security developments. This research aims to evaluate the role of the Resistance Axis in regional security changes and developments, providing a realistic perspective on its position in the power hierarchy, regional balancing, and its role in security building and establishing sustainable security. The Resistance Axis, through its actions and strategies, has established itself as a key and significant player in Southwest Asia, playing a crucial role in power polarization, security balancing, and equilibrium of power and threats. Therefore, it can assume a desirable role in all power and security equations and relations in the regional power hierarchy. However, for its continued development, it is necessary to identify and examine the opportunities, threats, strengths, and weaknesses of this axis in the areas of discourse formation, and leveraging geoeconomic and geocultural adaptation and strengthening deterrence. Hence, this research, within an interpretive paradigm and using a qualitative method, involves collecting documents and studying library resources, conducting semi-structured interviews with 27 experts and scholars, and extracting data, indicators, components, and dimensions of the subject to explain the position, policy-making approach, strategies, and current status of the Resistance Axis concerning the balance of power and its approach to security building in the geopolitical structure of Southwest Asia.
