چکیده:
ational security depends on soft power, the ability of a country togenerate and use its economic power and to project its national values. It also depends on long-term factors that contribute to economic growth and increase the total resources base available not only for defense but to provide economic security in the form of income and business opportunities for individuals. The economic issues related to national security are both broad and complex. The economy and economic tools, however, enter into national security considerations in several other ways that include economic sanctions, export controls, economic incentives, expeditionary economics, and economic issues as a cause of conflict. The best-known hypothesis linking trade and conflict among nation-states says, given other thing countries that trade more with each other are less likely to go to war. The argument is a simple application of the theory of self-enforcing cooperation in repeated games. This paper focuses on the effect of trade integration between Iran and its important trading partners include Italy, Germany, Greece, Spain, France, Switzerland, Russia, Netherland, Belgium, Sweden, UK, Austria, on Iran’s national security over 1980-2015. The results indicate that the trade integration has positive effect on Iran’s national security in this period and the best-known hypothesis is valid.

"This paper focuses on the effect of trade integration between Iran and its important trading partners include Italy, Germany, Greece, Spain, France, Switzerland, Russia, Netherland, Belgium, Sweden, UK, Austria, on Iran’s national security over 1980-2015.
Given the relatively small size of many economies in the developing world, and their dependency on a handful of primary commodities, regional trade integration offers poorer countries mutual development gains through pooled resources, expanded markets, increased regional trade and investment, and greater economic diversification.
1. Theoretical Background, Model Specification The aim of our empirical analysis is to estimate whether and how trade integration between Iran and its important trading partners, include Italy, Germany, Greece, Spain, France, Switzerland, Russia, Netherland, Belgium, Sweden, UK, Austria, exerted a significant impact on Iran’s national security over 1980-2015 in a 2SLS and gravity setting.
For the first equation we assume that the national security and trade integration index are joint products, produced by country-specific factors: net migration, CO2 emissions per capita, and energy production, telephone lines, secure internet servers and GDP per capita.
The fall in the GDP per capita (GDPP), combined with the need to drastically reduce the government expenditures in order to avoid credit defaults has led in many countries to the reduction of defense budgets as the most obvious effect of the economic problems on the security and defense area.
