From the casual standpoint the subject of political geography science is the wrought of interaction between political and spatial variables. So based on what was said, the two indexes “policy” and “space” are considered as fundamental concepts of this field and therefore, recognition of them is an infrastructural action in order to have an understanding of political phenomena. Space can be considered as a three dimensional compound which includes identity, structure and systems with defined barriers; it has different scales and dynamic visions that create life dominion, mobility, emotions, ideals and human activities. But policy which is affected by various ideologies is: concepts and political ruler institutions, procedures and decisional mechanism that is created by a value system and supported by the power factor hidden in the government, and is affected by geographical space and also has influence on it. Methodology This research is done by library and field research with descriptive - analytic method which tries to recognize and rank indexes of policy and space in political geography. Data and Information collection in this research is done in two steps: first step is related to the subject methodology information gathering and history of related researches that is gathered by library search, websites searches, scientific journals and researches. Second step is done by field research (via questionnaire). Statistical population of research consists of domestics and foreigner masters of political geography, political science and international relation fields and the sample is 60 persons of the mentioned fields’ masters that are selected randomly. Results and Discussion This research is organized to index policy and space indicators in the field of political geography studying in order to evaluate the results and rank them according to the opinions of experts. We feel that field research is needed more than library studies which is why the questionnaire was designed. After collecting the 50 questionnaires, the following results were found: After receiving the experts’ opinions and analyzing them, the results yield as follows: among all political indexes, basic law, unions and bilateral or multilateral contracts have the most and the least receiving weight respectively 387 and 216.5. From the 27 indexes which were considered as political indexes by researchers, 20 indexes were assigned to absolute policy. 8 were twofold or spatial-political and only 1 index was recognized as spatial index by experts’ opinions. For the spatial indexes after analysis the following results were obtained: among all spatial indexes, biology basis (water, land, air, etc.) and service structures have the most and the least receiving weight respectively 381.5 and 249.5. From the 24 indexes which were considered as spatial indexes by researchers, 22 indexes were assigned to absolute space and 2 were twofold or spatial-political. Conclusion From the 27 indexes which were considered as political indexes by researchers, 20 indexes were assigned to absolute policy. 8 were twofold or spatial-political and only 1 index was recognized as spatial index according to experts’ opinions. Total receiving weight of political indexes is 7840.5 and the mean of total weight of each index is 290.4 and mean weight of each index is 5.7. From the 24 indexes which were considered as spatial indexes by researchers, 22 indexes were assigned to absolute space and 2 were twofold or spatial-political. Total receiving weight of spatial indexes is 7635 and the mean of total weight of each index is 318.14 and mean weight of each index is 6.2. Research data represents that indexes of space indicators are more important in political geography. Based on what was mentioned, we can classify the indexes of space and policy indicators in political geography with their corresponding subunits as follows: Keywords: Policy, Space, Ideology, Political geography. Policy Basic law, decision making process, management, pronouncement, codifying law, accepting law, accepting bylaw, issuing manual, issuing circular, designing bill, governing, government, parliament, political communion, political leaders and elites, parties. Spatial – Political Global organizations (UN), regional organizations, unions, bilateral/ multilateral contracts, economical and financial institutions, election (government/parliament), residential, strategies, leadership, nation, identity. Space Biology basis (water, land, air, etc.), ecology, place, land, territory, country, city, village, area, sector, communication networks (railway, highways, etc.) mineral and industrial instructions, production instructions, services instruction, hesitancy instructions, defense and security instructions, skeletal instructions, barriers, population, immigration, minority.
