Abstract

Abstract
One of the ways of improving the quality of domestic production is privatization. To this end and in order to move in unison with the dominant policies of most countries, Privatization- the Act of Execution of General Policies of 44th Principle of Constitution 2008 was ratified. Although this Act can be a step forward toward Iran’s economic transformation, it has some deficiencies that need to be addressed. One of such deficiencies the present paper deals with is the legality of the assignment to pubic non-governmental organizations. It can be argued that by transferring ownership to these institutions that are financially and administratively dependent on the government, privatization (transferring ownership r management from the public sector to the private sector) will not happen, and therefore, we cannot expect to achieve the goals of privatization and improvement of domestic production. The present paper is descriptive analytical, and library method is used for data collection.
