The analysis of the obstacles to Iran's socio-economic development during the second Pahlavi era( With emphasis on Ibn Khaldun's theory of development)

. In this paper try to explain, with an Ibn khaldon's aprroach that mentioned, the obstacles of development in the second Pahlavi era. From Ibn Khaldun's perspective, factors such as people, political officials, beliefs, wealth, or resources, development, and justice are linked in a circular and independent. They affect each other and provides grounds for positive or negative transformation. Considering that during the second Pahlavi, some components such as wealth, namely, oil money and foreign aid as constructive elements, had the potential for a positive development impact. However, these factors have made official elements dependent on the government more, and they were subordinated to the political system instead of being effective. Moreover, unofficial groups performed their duties, and the most important effects of the domination of informal groups is disregard for order and law, which provides context for avoiding positive developments. On the other hand, the improvement of the monetary situation provided context for the despotism of Mohammad Reza Shah in the late period of his rule. Meanwhile, good government in Ibn Khaldun's view is neither an interventionist government nor a dictatorial government. Therefore, the effect that the pivotal variables have on development in other variables has had a negative impact, not a turning point for development.
