Abstract

Considering the impact of development plans on the policy makers and executives, the achievement of the Islamic revolution's aims depends largely on the compatibility of these plans with the economic discourse of the Islamic revolution and their implementation. Accordingly, this study focused on "identifying the rural progress elements within Islamic revolution discourse", "analyzing the sixth development plan's compatibility with these elements", and "suggesting some ideas for the seventh development plan draft". The method employed was content analysis applied to Imam Khomeini's and the supreme leader's speeches, as well as the constitution. After identifying the elements of Islamic revolution's discourse with regards to the rural progress, the sixth development plan was investigated. Also, using the official data and the economic indexes, the compatibility of this document with the economic discourse of the revolution was studied. It was found that the compatibility of the indexes is not much promising, considering the revolution's discourse in the sixth economic, socio-cultural development plan. Therefore, it was suggested that the seventh development plan should modify some of these pitfalls.
