Abstract

Introduction Rural area as system rule and national activity has a great place in national development, because the land Sustainable development is related to the sustainability of rural system as an ingredient of land system and the sustainability of rural spaces in all aspects can has a great deal with regional and national development. If this trend experiences an interruption during its development, its results and effects not only will consist of the Rural Areas, but also consists the urban districts and finally the whole land (Rezvani, 2004: 2). In economics structures of rural area in different countries, the agriculture is the most important part of the livelihood and is one of the main part of development plans and the only economics base of the village (Taherkhani, 2000: 21). The most important feature of this structure is the lack of diversity in economics' bed and business opportunity even for the human forces that comes out of the special point of view to the village and public policy and some of its internal facts. Such economics and business structure make lots of problems that some of them are: less flexibility in contrast to the weather oscillation, price changes in the time of harvesting, dependence of beneficiary to the external environment of village and foreign markets, existence of reveal and hidden unemployment, decreasing the returns of investment, explosion of base resources of environment, vulnerability of rural economy and instability of income resources, weakening the economy and culture in village, rural migration, suburbanization, and city's problems (Javan, Alavizade, and Kermani, 2011: 19). Methods and Material The research method is Explanatory-Analytical and the way which collect data is the questionnaire that the experts make it completed. The other techniques are document-library and survey. Sustainable development strategies based on north western of Isfahan are extracted through Delphi technique. By the way, there are different kinds of strategies in order to help Isfahan villages, but through lack of resources and the principle of the best choice of using resources, it is necessary to find out the Strategy that make Sustainable development executive through the best option. So Delphi is used to find the best Strategy. So, 30 panelists through their experiment were chosen to have the best judge and choose the 10 strategies out of 18 which are in priority. Results and Discussion The indexes which are used in this research are 19 indexes that are classifies in four classes: Economical, Social, Physical-Spatial, and Environment. In order to evaluate the importance of each criteria and indexes, the material comparison is used. The environment criteria has the most and the social criteria has the least point. Each criteria has some indexes in its route that should be compared with the other indexes in different classes. Finally the better Strategy is extracted in north western of Isfahan. By maternal comparison of economic criteria in AHP technique, the experts show that the index of implementation of prices of the plan by value 0. 198 has the most valuable index. In social criteria, the index of development of new jobs by value 0. 270 has the most value; in physical-spatial criteria, the index of infrastructure by value 0. 280 has the most value; and finally in environment criteria, index of coincident to the regional talent by value 0. 310 is chosen as the most valuable index. In the last pace, the value of criteria and the indexes are multiplied each other in order to attain the final value of each features. So, the AHP technique and the priorities in Promethee software, the positive and negative trends are evaluated firstly, and then the pure trend is gained. So, based on the ranking, the strategies are listed and through the Promthee technique, the Strategy of Tourism planning is extracted which the people participation is next to it. Conclusion Through this study, it can be mentioned that the index of making changes in the natural environment, index of infrastructure, and index of coincident to the regional talent are the most indexes. It means that in every kind of planning foe rural development foe this region, these three indexes must be in priority. In fact, through the research in north western of Isfahan area, can find lots of potentials in order to develop and recovery the situation of the villages that these priorities can help to make it possible. Through the indexes and strategies which the experts determined here, I shows that the development of Tourism planning and the people participation Strategy are the most valuable place in rural development. So, Tourism and making good infrastructure principles besides to be helped by people participation can make sustainability in Isfahan villages executive. This region because of the great potentials for Tourism (like different weather, cultural and ancient heritage, pure nature, and … ) and also special situation as climate change and lacking enough water during the last decade that make lots of problems for agriculture and the farmers are finding solutions to vivify their economics, Tourism can help them in order to accelerate the rural Sustainable development.
