ABSTRACT Over the past 50 years since the first research in the field of urban development implementation plans, there has been a noticeable absence of a comprehensive literature review on this topic in the global arena. This article provides a textual analysis related to the subject of urban development implementation plans, to identify important and recurring themes alongside analyzing the relationships between authors, journals, and countries in this field. Along with the bibliographic analysis, documents related to the field of urban development implementation plans were reviewed to identify influential indicators in their implementation. To this end, 456 scientific articles were extracted from the Scopus scientific database as of October 28th, 2022, and analyzed using scientometric software. These analyses include examining author keywords, country co-authorships, journal bibliographic coupling, and author co-citations. In this study, 74 final indicators were identified as the most recurrent indicators in this field. The bibliographic analysis also produced several noteworthy results. The United States is the most active country in this field, with a link strength of 40 and 176 articles. Berke, P. is the most influential author in this field, with a link strength of 1623 and 99 citations. Among the journals examined, "Land Use Policy" has the highest bibliographic coupling strength of 84, and the "Journal of the American Planning Association" has the highest number of documents related to this field, with 22 documents; finally, among the identified. Extended Abstract Introduction The implementation of urban development projects has been a neglected topic in public policy research, despite its critical importance in ensuring the success of such projects. While there have been numerous studies on the factors that contribute to the success or failure of policy implementation, there has been a lack of systematic reviews on the subject of implementation as a whole. This study aims to address this gap in knowledge by providing a comprehensive overview of the implementation process of urban development projects. This study aims to address this gap in knowledge by providing a comprehensive overview of the implementation process of urban development projects. The study begins by collecting and categorizing existing research in the field, focusing on three main questions: -What are the key indicators for successful implementation? -What are urban journals and articles' current trends and performance? -How do countries and researchers collaborate in this area? The study also examines the relationships between authors, publishers, and different types of documents through bibliographic analysis. Ultimately, this study highlights the need for further research and a more structured approach to understanding the implementation process of urban development projects.   Methodology This study examined the literature related to implementation and evaluation plans in urban and land use planning. The authors used the Scopus database to extract and collect data, focusing on combining the keywords "implementation-plan" and "evaluation-plan" in the keywords, abstracts, and titles. Initially, 621 studies were extracted, but 456 articles were selected as the final database after filtering out non-article documents. The authors observed a general upward trend for studies from 1968 to 2022, with a significant increase in the slope of the trend from 2007. However, a slight decrease in studies was observed in 2021 and 2022, possibly due to the global pandemic and the emergence of new related topics. The authors used a four-stage process to analyze the bibliographic subject of the study, including simultaneous occurrence analysis, co-authorship analysis, bibliographic coupling analysis, co-citation analysis, content analysis, and thematic analysis. The authors identified the selected articles' research objectives, methodologies, findings, and main themes and sub-themes. Overall, this study provides a comprehensive analysis of the literature on implementation and evaluation plans in urban and land use planning.   Results and discussion This research aims to comprehensively analyze the implementation and execution of urban development plans using bibliometrics and systematic analysis. The study considers evaluation as a crucial part of the implementation process and seeks to answer three fundamental questions. Firstly, it identifies effective indicators of implementation and execution globally. Secondly, it examines the trends and performances of new articles and urban journals. Thirdly, it investigates the pattern of cooperation among countries and researchers. The study identifies 74 general indicators that significantly impact the implementation process of urban plans. The results show that "performance evaluation," "effectiveness," "land use," "zonation," "participation," "program quality," and "implementation program" are critical indicators in this area. The study also highlights the importance of evaluation in the discussion of program implementation and its separability from the implementation process. Using the scientometric software VOSviewer, the study analyzed 68 keywords related to the bibliographic topic. "Program evaluation" obtained the first place, followed by "Program implementation" and "Program quality." The co-authorship analysis based on author items revealed that Berke, P. has the highest number of citations and link strength. Additionally, the study found that 72 countries have research in this field, with 22 countries having at least 5 citations that were clustered into 5 clusters by the software. The "land use policy" journal had the highest link strength, and the "Journal of the American planning association" had the highest number of documents related to this field. In conclusion, the study provides valuable insights for policymakers and researchers interested in urban development planning. It comprehensively examines the implementation and execution of urban development plans, identifies effective indicators, and investigates the pattern of cooperation among countries and researchers. The study highlights the importance of evaluation in the implementation process and its separability from the implementation process.   Conclusion The main goal of this research was to fill the gap in research on the implementation and execution of urban development projects in the field, as no systematic review of the topic has been conducted from a global perspective since the first research in this field about half a century ago. Only in some studies, such as those by Talen (1996), Oliveira & Pinho (2010), Rudolf & Grădinaru (2017), has the evaluation of implementation been systematically reviewed, or the systematic review of experiences in a specific urban area, such as the review of various experiences in the Beijing urban area (Chu, 2020). In this research, with the comprehensive approach that the evaluation of implementation is an integral part of the overall process of implementing and executing urban development projects, this process has been examined from the perspective of bibliometrics and systematic analysis of this field. The main difference of this research, which makes it completely new, is firstly having a comprehensive approach to the implementation field, where program evaluation is only an important part of its structure, and secondly, using the scientometric software VOSviewer for the first time in this field. In essence, the conclusive outcomes of this investigation were entirely novel and exhibited some partial congruences with antecedent studies in the domain of appraising and discerning indicators. Significantly, this research has conferred a systematic appraisal of the literature concerning the urban implementation and execution of projects, which is an unprecedented contribution. It should be acknowledged that this is an initial survey of data intended to offer a comprehensive outlook on this scholarly field, and thus it is subject to certain limitations, such as its confinement to the Scopus database. As such, it is recommended that future research endeavors encompass an analysis of additional databases and undertake comparative evaluations of the results.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the actions and results of the rural development policies and their effects on the efficiency and effectiveness of the rural development policy in the Sixth Development Plan and to apply the lessons learned in the Seventh Development Plan. Methodology: As to the purpose, the present research was applied and in terms of methodology, it was descriptive. In the general methodological framework of the research, to study the goals, outputs and consequences of sustainable rural development policies, policy monitoring method was used in order to monitor and evaluate the rural development policy in accordance with the Five-Year Sixth Development Plan. The statistical population of the research included the bills and laws of budgets and programs as well as reports on the performance of government and parliament in the field of rural development on the one hand, and critical and evaluation researches on rural development programs, on the other hand. In this regard, directional content analysis based on the above documents was used in the framework of policy monitoring method. Findings: Evaluation of rural development policy's performance in development programs focusing on the Sixth Development Plan shows that despite the success in the outputs, in terms of their consequences, they do not correspond to the predetermined goals. Besides, the evaluation of actions and outputs of rural development policies indicate a serious imbalance between the ratio of employment and production credits to physical, service and infrastructure credits, as well as incompatibility of objectives and elements of rural development policy with bills and laws. In addition, findings of the experiences in the field of critique and evaluation of rural development programs, the lack of a comprehensive approach in designing a model for rural development and finally, the lack of a specialized and efficient agent for supporting rural development policy are all the main sources of failure in reaching the desired objectives and tasks of the rural development policies in the Sixth Development Plan. Originality/Value: In addition to exposing a theoretical gap in the investigated area, this research has also explained the evaluation framework of the rural development policy based on the components of sustainable rural development. From a practical point of view, using the policy analysis method, it has provided the possibility for evaluating the performance of the rural development policy based on the latest implementation measures in the development plans.

The objective of resistive economy overall policies is creating appropriate environment for Iran’s economy movement on a sustainable growth path. Planning based resistive economy require to be dealt with Any disruptive factor for sustainable growth and plan strategies to be chosen so that minimize risks and uncertainties relevant to achieve to its goals. Survey about performance of Iran’s economy show that moreover, low mean of performance key variables, Iran’s economy has high volatilities. The base of low performance and its volatility return to two main factors, namely inappropriate economy policies and so impulses derived external sanctions. The common mode of the factors, namely inappropriate economy policies and impulses derive in how use of oil resources. Dependence on government revenue and so foreign exchange earnings to oil revenues and its crude sale is the main problem of Iran and until a solution isn’t found for that, unsustainability in Iran’s economy will continue. The purpose of this study was to find a long-term solution to reduce dependence on oil revenues in 6th development plan or use of resistive economy strategies. Regarding to world oil outlook, use of oil in sectors such as transportation, industry especially petrochemical, household/ commercial/ agriculture consumptions and power generation instead of crude oil sale, can be resolve the problem.

This article investigates the governing ideologies of the third and second plan of Development, by using Barrington Moore Jr. "Development program" Theory and also Robert Merton "Means and goals" theory, in order to show the rate of inconsistency between goals and means and also ideological conflict in these two plans. To gain this objectives, first, we explained social, cultural, economic and political principles of socialism and liberalism and then, used the method of content analysis for final goals, policies (middle goals), and provision (means) in these two plans. The results show that in both two plan. mostly the goals were socialistic and the means were often liberelistic.Also the rate of inconsistency between goals and means in the second plan was less than the first plan.

Nowadays, learning does not stop after graduation, but it is considered as the starting point for the development of human resources in the occupation and in this regard, one of the tools to strengthen learning in individuals' professions is the individual development plan. In fact, this plan is a practical tool and a precise schedule to meet the professional needs of employees in line with the goals of the organization and employees’ occupation. Although the usage of this tool is very common, no purposeful study has been done in order to familiarize researchers with the various results of numerous global researches in the field of its implementation. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to examine the findings of global studies on the implementation of individual development plan and its effectiveness in organizations. The results of a total of 23 global and local researches indicate that most of them have emphasized the significant effectiveness of IDP implementation on the development of knowledge, improvement of professional skills and performances of employees, encouragement of professional responses and promotion of employabilities of the individuals. On the other hand, the results of some researches have considered the individual nature of this plan to be the cause of neglecting the macro-organizational strategies; and therefore, these studies have highlighted the lack of motivation and persuasion of the feedback method, the lack of effects on professional actions at the workplace, the ornamental nature and also unrealistic application of this plan. In some other studies, having sufficient support to implement the plan, the type of organizational learning environment, attention to work teams, leadership style, decentralization, and also supporting the coaches in their guiding roles have been mentioned as the factors and conditions for the effectiveness of this plan’s implementation.

Importance of transportation in development of countries and emphasis on productivity in the five-year development plans, are the most important reasons to do more research on the topic of transportation efficiency. Despite the importance of these two topics, less research with the extraction of performance measurement's indicators in the transportation industry and emphasis of provinces during the development plan period have been implemented. In this research, to achieve this goal by using the 6 input and 6 output indices within the Third Development Plan and the first 3 years within the Fourth Development Plan, we consider the relative performance of the provinces in the cargo of transportation has been considered in this paper, by using the mathematical Data Envelop Analysis Model (DEA) and Susceptibility Model. The method used in this research is descriptive - analytic and the data are extracted from the valid census references. The results indicate that there is a high performance in Booshehr and Tehran Provinces and low performance in Kohgiluyeh and Boyer Ahmad Province, within the Third and Fourth plans. The number of inter–city vehicles is considered as a main input index and the number of passengers is considered as an output index, indicating the significance of both parameters in the performance of transportation system.

Considering the impact of development plans on the policy makers and executives, the achievement of the Islamic revolution's aims depends largely on the compatibility of these plans with the economic discourse of the Islamic revolution and their implementation. Accordingly, this study focused on "identifying the rural progress elements within Islamic revolution discourse", "analyzing the sixth development plan's compatibility with these elements", and "suggesting some ideas for the seventh development plan draft". The method employed was content analysis applied to Imam Khomeini's and the supreme leader's speeches, as well as the constitution. After identifying the elements of Islamic revolution's discourse with regards to the rural progress, the sixth development plan was investigated. Also, using the official data and the economic indexes, the compatibility of this document with the economic discourse of the revolution was studied. It was found that the compatibility of the indexes is not much promising, considering the revolution's discourse in the sixth economic, socio-cultural development plan. Therefore, it was suggested that the seventh development plan should modify some of these pitfalls.
