Privatization in Iran: a Review of Theoretical Principles,Experimental Studies and the Performance of General Policies of Article (44)

The main objective of this article is to study the functions of three effective and independent variables in the implementation of general policies of Article (44) of the Constitution: the submission of government (responsibly), people’s investment ability and economic freedom and doing business in the country.According to the restriction of the implementation of these policies, and for the validity and reliability of the study, the theoretical bases and results of experimental studies are more focused than the results of its functions. We have used Library Research Method (LRM) to gather the needed data and used Meta Analytical Method (MAM) to analyze them, too. Therefore, after reviewing the ownership and management theory and revising experimental studies, by reviewing the reports of the performance of the implementation of general policies of Article (44) of the constitution in the previous years, it is found that privatization and granting the state shares have been totally influenced by the implementation of Justice Share Plan (JSP). Furthermore, by accepting private and cooperative sectors abilities to implement the mentioned policies by the related indices, it is shown that Iranian economy cannot prepare a good way for economic freedom and necessary doing business for the participation of private sector. Consequently, it is suggested that in order to expand the privatization, the state should apply sections “A” and “B” of these policies, especially high and low sections of Article (44) and the expansion of economic freedom, the improvement of doing business, and necessary institutionalization by the enforcement of section “C”;and especially focusing on the JSP too.
