Urbanization and Regional Disparities in Post-Revolutionary Iran

Informationen zum Autor Ahmad Sharbatoghlie Zusammenfassung Iran's rapid population growth, coupled with a legacy of political and administrative centralization, has led to acute regional disparities. Although the roots of these inequalities can be traced back to the monarchical era, this book shows how the Revolution and subsequent developments have significantly affected the social and economic conditions of urban and rural areas in post-revolutionary Iran. Considering geographic, demographic, structural and policy factors, the author presents a multi-levelled analysis of Iran's current situation and offers a proposal for a more balanced future development strategy. Inhaltsverzeichnis Urban agglomeration and regional disparities; a topographic review of Iran; demographic characteristics; government policies; rural-urban disparities; inter-provincial disparities; inter-city disparities; strategies for a balanced regional development.
