Rather, after the victory of the Islamic Revolution, the quantitative and qualitative criteria of political development enjoyed significant development; but how? Therefore, the main question of the present research is: What are the main drivers which brought about change in the development of the criteria of political development in Iran after the Islamic Revolution and set the ground for achieving political development? The present research aims at identifying and explaining the influential drivers on political development in Iran after the victory of the Islamic Revolution based on experts panel.
