چکیده:
The purpose of this paper is to open new horizons for decision-making and resource allocation system in Iran in order to meet the national development goals. To this end، we have relied on theoretical framework of institutionalism and the important finding of historical institutionalists that “History of development is the economic history of institutional innovations that reduce transactions cost” to analize underlying factors of institutional changes and significant role of government and historical context in path of institutional innovations of reducing transaction cost and features of said innovations that result in development and reduction of transaction cost in developed societies. Also،by referring to the economic history of our country، we have tried to render and study important evidence of prominent achievements to reduce transactions cost. To achieve such purpose، we have presented two samples of said innovations in post-revolution Iran «clarification of costs and sources that are based on dollar unit » and «clarification of foreign trade rules» and we have compared the situation before and after these innovations. The result of this research indicates that in the context of the political economy of Iran، it is possible to increase the speed of realization of national development goals trough institutional innovations of increasing opportunity cost for rent seeking and drowing up manufacturers’s trust.
خلاصه ماشینی:
Economic history shows that efficient institutions, whose prominent characteristic is low transaction costs—especially through the definition, guarantee, and relatively efficient enforcement of property rights—have led to facilitating the path of development, and changes and innovations carried out towards productive incentives and reducing transaction costs have ultimately brought about developmental achievements.
In the final section, the experience of two institutional innovations that reduce transaction costs in Iran, "transparency of decision-making processes and the allocation of Rial and Dollar resources" and "transparency of licenses and regulations related to foreign trade," which were implemented in the early years after the victory of the revolution and brought about developmental achievements, is presented and suggested as a solution for untying the developmental knots of today's Iran.
Accordingly, in this section, an attempt is made to discuss and examine the historical path of the transformations in Iran's economic performance, and in this regard, first the role of the government in the path of Iran's economic development over the past few decades is presented, and then, examples of institutional innovations reducing transaction costs and their achievements experienced in Iran's economic history are mentioned.
