| Abstract | ||
| Addressing the issue of establishing development-oriented structures, governments might face either of the following situations: they find themselves capable of engaging target society in programs and projects or they fail in doing so which would lead to independent actions by people themselves. Complex social problems and meanwhile population growth, would inevitably make primary governmental structures inefficient in achieving development objectives thoroughly, as a result governments should take active steps towards empowering and enlightening people in a way that they become capable of organizing their efforts in accordance with development objectives, public goods and public benefits. When underdeveloped societies find out about the influential role of non-governmental structures in the development process, governments would have two options: facilitating the engagement process for the society, or witnessing local societies authentically establishing bottom-up planning and implementation structures. Noticing the importance of organization and engagement seem much more crucial in case of villages, where in comparison with urban areas, suffer from deficiencies in engagement structures. This paper based on Hermeneutic analysis approach, takes advantage of literature study and two case studies of rural development policy making and implementation (European Union and Pakistan), in suggesting a theoretical framework for mobilizing social structures with the purpose of supporting development policies in Iran's rural areas. | ||
