Abstract
In the current situation, and of course, despite the fact that some of Hezbollah's commanders have been martyred, the Lebanese Hezbollah movement has become an influential player in Lebanon's internal equations and an influential component in regional developments. The level of influence and influence of this movement indicates the important position of Hezbollah. Hezbollah's high level of active participation and activism in the axis of resistance has caused the enemies to seek to weaken this player through various means. Despite the enemy's strategies to weaken Hezbollah, the role of this actor has taken on new and increasing dimensions, to the point where Hezbollah's role and influence are not limited to the military and security spheres, but have also spread to other spheres. An examination of the behavior and type of performance of the Lebanese Islamic Resistance Axis indicates that this actor has strengthened its level of acting due to the benefit of important drivers.
The main question of the research is: On what basis has Hezbollah been able to have a significant impact on the surrounding environment? The present research, which was written using the documentary method and the collection of library resources, has explained the major factors affecting Hezbollah in Lebanon under the title of drivers affecting the activism of this actor in various fields. The research findings indicate that Hezbollah in Lebanon, by benefiting from social, economic, political, and military drivers, has been able to survive in the chaotic environment of the West Asian region, reach high levels of influence, and be able to play an active and purposeful role.
