In the historical development process, legitimacy has been shaped according to different social, economic and political phenomena. Legitimacy is still an important problem area for both politics and the administration of organizations. The main purpose of the study is to discuss the problems and sources of legitimacy in the context of management philosophy and politics according to different philosophies. For this purpose, the interpretation and problems of and approach to the sources of legitimacy of politics and educational administration in the literature were studied based on the literature review.

Sources of legitimacy in the context of political philosophy are traditional, modern and political science sources of legitimacy. In this context, traditional sources of legitimacy are divided into three groups: religious, monarchic and oligarchic idealism. Modern legitimacy types, on the other hand, are grouped under three subtitles as republic, democratic republic and socialist republic. Legitimacy in terms of political science is in the form of state sovereignty, democratic state and realist state conceptions. In the study, the need for the state or the ruler, the question of who rules in politics and administration and the problem of legitimacy are discussed in terms of quality in the context of society (politics) and organizational management.
