The current paper aims at presenting a pattern for the
development of East Azerbaijan province, Iran, in a frame on
national and regional developmental policies, which requires the
formation of two basic processes:
(a) To
access and employ a mechanism which ultimately limits
unnecessary consumption expenditures in the province and leads
the surplus of economic output toward physical and human
investment to modernize productive foundations. (b) To plan and
utilize a set of strategies and development policies, by the
mechanism indicated in the previous part to transform the
surplus saved to human and physical investments conformed to the
economic development needs. The studies on the model of
development in Azerbaijan illustrate that for the purpose of
actualizing the two processes mentioned above, basic reforms are
necessary in the regional organizing and planning and achieving
this aim requires employing a collection of proper strategies in
politics, culture, training of experts and investment,
information, management, economic systems. The factors mentioned
are the elements which ought to be developed and expanded
coordinately and the absence of each of these factors will stop
the development process even when the other factors are
fulfilled.
Key words: Economic development, regional policies,
