As governments can increase the capacity of the quintessential family benefit in social and political participation which is done by resorting to the direct and indirect ways to increase the authority of the institution and to avoid assuming the concrete and direct attention to the growth and promotion of the family to provide families and thus their obligations to provide appropriate play. In addition, despite the differences in political attitudes, understanding with regard to the identity and privacy of the family is inevitable and irrevocable. Reflection on construction and public works, and how the law and government policy officers do with regard to the accepted norms of state law and big and small obligations towards "family" would be helpful considering the statements mentioned in pathology and discover the consistency of the findings in order to communicate constructively and presenting a non-passive model of the state and the family. In this paper, we tried to focus on factors known to the international community and the collective wisdom in the field of governance. Their works were evaluated on the existence of the family.

This paper predicts Iran's population considering urban and rural areas by the year 2040 and the combined effect of fertility, mortality and migration in terms of internal migration and international migration are considered and among the 11 forecasts, three options have been chosen as the final scenario. These forecasts superiority over those in the past entails: including the hypothesis of sending immigrants abroad that is now one of the main problems of the country in population field. This point is important in countries where fertility levels are below replacement level and at the same time there is a strong migration, therefore demographic transformation is done rapidly and results in more touching effect on their work so that if in our country, sending immigrants abroad with an intensity of about a hundred thousand people a year, the effect on the reduction of its population in a thirty-five year period would be nearly five million people. In addition to that, since migration of people occurs in certain age and sex groups, therefore its effect on the population is far heavier. The population in Iran based on these scenarios would be between 96.7 and 102.9 million in 2040 and the most probable one will be based on principles of population policies of the country based on increasing fertility rate a little more than replacement rate and sending immigrants abroad of 70000 people annually (the second scenario). With the intensification of sending immigrants abroad to work in the various documents listed between 15 to 180 thousand people, heavier consequences on the number and structure of the population is inevitable. It should be noted that in the recent census in 2016, based on 97 percent of the population counted, 77.4 million obtained by applying 3 percent of those not counted, this figure will be amounted to 79.794 million based on the second scenario that predicts that the data (79.796 million) correspond perfectly.
