learning from the past historical moments helps us to turn crisis into an opportunity, to secure our society socially politically and economically from domestic to international levels.
Iran is now undergoing post election events , Although Iran's post election atmosphere seems to be cool but there are still parties inside the country are unrest influenced by western intruders trying to stir the situation to save their disruptive reputation.
There are significant transition points in Iran post revolution era. the first decade we tried to fix socio-political instability crisis and on the other hand dealing with Iran-Iraq war burden on Iranians' shoulders. This period started from 1979 and ended in 1989 with the death of Ayatullah khomeini,
After 1989Iran entered into the second period with loads of economical crisis, so new government came to the power with a new slogan "restructure of economy" but ignoring developing other social needs of new generation, I personally think that even general economic liberalization failed to some extent,
Here, I am not trying to underestimate their effort of reconstitution of Iran's economic pillars. Iranians are all well aware of problems like tough international sanctions , wars and etc, hence such slight developments could be considered as economic growth, Although their effort was limited and didn't have consistency , privatization process was revolving around the small circle of some politicians and their families only.
from 1997 people felt they needed to some new faces with new beautiful slogans such as reform promises, what we gained was nothing actually , reformist government ignored the economic development instead they involved in political arguments, in my eyes it was another failure of elites.
reviewing the said 3 phases we can see that Iran were mostly under lefties and some semi conservative claiming as progressives tottering to the lefties satisfying their self interests, during the first decade the sever antagonism towards capitalism and privatization caused reduction in productivity and weakening the economy, in the next periods governments failed at acting upon their promises such as reduction of subsidiaries and privatization of nationalized enterprises etc and etc ......
In 2005 , Iranians felt for a real reform something different than reformists and voted for Ahmadinejad , a new face with new promises, Iranians saw him as a tough critic of past governments how ever politicians have never been really trust worthy,but Iranians preferred t o revive their hopes for brighter future with him .He was able to earn Iranian mobs respect , some might reject the idea but we can not ignore the truth,
and now again they re-elected him waiting for the justice he has promised them to receive, right now if we want the system to survive , if we want to be in the right track of economic changes, if we want to save our culture, if we want to have political reforms , we need to stick to history lessons ,
the victory is in turning crisis into the opportunity
I appreciate your efforts in clarifying Iran's situation.
