Abstract
The realization of the third hegemonic cycle of the world-system in the axis of exceptional American capitalism, on the one hand, reproduced the peripheral-semi-peripheral coordinates of Iran in the asymmetric geometry of world development, and on the other hand, the change of the world hegemonic core, the systemic reconstruction of the general metamorphosis of Iran's development in line with the structural dependence of the British core in The second hegemonic cycle shifted towards the core of the United States. Following the collapse of the imperial system and the establishment of the Islamic system in the form of hegemonic systemic pressure and adaptation of the development patterns of Bretton Woods institutions, the disorder of development in Iran was restored. With these considerations, the main question of the current article is raised as follows: How has the formation of Iran's development changed during the long-term crisis of late capitalism? The analysis of the article shows that in the late capitalist era of the expansion of the world-economy, the promotion of the neoliberal development model and the systemic pressures of the United States against the Islamic Republic of Iran had dispersive effects on the growth and development of Iran, and this change in the systematic cycle of national accumulation and the reproduction of the dynamics of the socio-economic formation of Iran is disorder. has created a complex The current research tries to analyze the proposed question and hypothesis based on the complex systems analysis method.
