Abstract

Although in the first decade of the Islamic revolution, there were signs of "Islamic idealism discourse" in Iran's foreign policy, but following the establishment of the constructive government in 1368, evidence of a change in the said discourse was gradually revealed;In the meantime, the security policy of the Islamic Republic also encountered new innovations; The transformation that was the product of post-war domestic conditions and emerging regional and international developments and brought signs of an intellectual capacity based on (relative) consensus among decision makers.Based on this, the main question of this article is: in the framework of the construction government's security policy system in the period from 1368 to 1376, how was the relationship between development and security considerations established? In response, the desired hypothesis was also formed in this format:In the framework of the security policy, "economic development" was placed as the most central strategy of the security policy of the construction government (1368-1376) and according to this model and national role, national security and national development were considered identical.The main finding of the article also refers to the pragmatism of the construction government's security policy, beyond a historical experience.
