| چکیده انگلیسی مقاله |
Sustainable development in Iran's rural areas faces significant challenges, including rural-to-urban migration and influx of new, non-productive residents; agricultural mismanagement and land-use change; environmental degradation resulting from development projects; and a shift in rural governance from participatory, endogenous models to that are state-centered and exogenous ones. This study elucidates the sustainability dilemma in Lavasan-e Bozorg village through a qualitative, field-based methodology, utilizing in-depth interviews, field observation, and documentary analysis. Data from 31 exploratory interviews with officials, informants, and locals (selected via purposive sampling) were coded and analyzed. Based on the findings and the frequency of recurring categories in the interviews, sustainability was prioritized and classified into six principal domains: “Demographic”, “Economic–livelihood”, “Managerial-Governance”, “Social”, “Environmental”, and “Cultural”. These domains exist in a dynamic, reciprocal relationship, alternately acting as both cause and effect. Within this system, the twin factors of "proximity to the capital" and "water security" are of paramount. While adjacency to Tehran presents developmental opportunities, it is offset by the capital's demand for potable water, environmental constraints, and rampant land speculation, collectively undermining the village's productive and livelihood base. The study concludes that the village is trapped in a state of "ambiguity and a vicious cycle of unsustainability". A resolution necessitates a paradigmatic shift toward locally grounded, participatory, and multidimensional development, emphasizing livelihood diversification, strengthening effective multi-level governance, and integrated natural resource management. |
