Abstract

Planning for Development in Iran started before the Islamic Revolution and continued with the Islamic Revolution with the aim of realizing the ideal Islamic society and turning Iran into a model for the Islamic world. However, despite the implementation of 6 development programs after the Islamic Revolution, there are still fundamental challenges in the process of Iran's development, and the development programs have not been able to manage these challenges. The present study seeks to answer how the development programs implemented in Iran after the Islamic Revolution and its function in the development process of Iran were constructed. In explaining this, the approach of analyzing development programs is historical sociology. Therefore, the theoretical construction as well as the approach of the activists in the formulation of this concept in the historical course has been investigated. In this sense, in addition to the role of actors and theoretical ideas in the formation of these programs, attention has also been paid to the historical events that happened along the way of the programs. Based on the study, it can be pointed out that the development programs after the revolution, in addition to not using the experience of development in the Pahlavi era and being formed under a different worldview, could not reach a consensus at the theoretical and activist level. Also in the historical context, with Events such as embargo and lack of foreign exchange resources did not make it possible to shape the development discourse.
