The purpose of the present study is to review the positive and negative impacts of the role of culture and values in national authority. The method of research is descriptive-analytic and the results showed that culture more than any other aspect is related to globalization. Cultural, national, religious, and ethical identities get a new form in the ground of globalization so they should not be sanctified as definite and unchangeable traditions but rather, should be considered as flexible processes that not only can adapt themselves to new circumstances but also be redefined in terms of purposes and goals to sustain their solidarity despite flexibility. Undoubtedly, Iran as a globalized country would be more successful in keeping its identity than an isolated and backward country.
