This article has been done with the aim of achieving an appropriate model of integrated management in the metropolitan area of Mashhad, taking into account the position of all actors. The research method of the article is a qualitative method of content content analysis and semi-structured interview has been used. The statistical community is considered experts and specialists in the field of urban management. Sampling used a combination of two standard methods and snowball. The method of analyzing the interview data was also interpretive and Atlas-ti.7 software was used. Findings indicate that the metropolitan area of Mashhad consists of four cities of Mashhad, Chenaran, Fariman and Binalood, which are managed separately. The actors of the management structure were identified in three sections: public, public and private. It is proposed to form an integrated institution of mother city management that dominates the whole area. This body consists of the mother city council, which is responsible for legislating and preparing the plan. Council members are a combination of representatives of all actors who are involved in the management of the constituency through legislation and the election of a director.

Today, urban development programs have little control over the components and forces that shape urban spaces; these conditions are the result of the divergence of social, political and economic influences existing in each of the territories. As a result, today the processes of power in the Metropolitan Area have led to the gradual elimination of unorganized groups and interests in favor of the dominant groups. In the Mashhad Metropolitan Area, despite the existence of regional, district and urban programs with the aim of a balanced organization of space and achievement of spatial justice, there are regional and urban imbalances, and the capital and power are highly centralized. In consequence, in this urban complex, the processes resulting from unlimited development have contributed to environmental degradation, migration of villagers to the city, increased urban squatter settlement and consequent damages. Undisputed political power by the means of powerful political, economic and social tools, has been the main element in determining the space organization and has regulated and directed the actions of public and private sectors. The present study was developmental in nature and was based on a mixed methodology, using a questionnaire of experts, and applying CFA factor analysis model in identifying the power and influence of contributing factors in spatial structuring and their relationships, goals and intentions. The findings of the current study showed that the elements of power of sovereignty, government, public sector and citizens have had the most influence on shaping the spatial organization of Mashhad Metropolitan Area, respectively.
