The Role of National Awakening and Self-Confidence in the Realization of Eghtesad-e-Moghavemati’s Pattern, Based on Imam Khomeini’s Thoughts

One of the bases to have the patterns of Eghtesad-e-Moghavemati realized and resolve the economic problems is to realize the popular participation in the economy and forming a popular economy. The first move toward forming a popular participation in an economy is the explanation of the model and its theoretical dimensions. This article, using the grounded theory method, intends to study and clarify several dimensions of the model by examining the thoughts of Imam Khomeini who successfully implemented the great epic of popular participation in different fields. After numbering and investigating his statements, we developed a model for popular participation in the economy which is consisted of three steps including “national awakening and self-confidence”, “national determination and will” and “national rise and participation”. Awakening and self-confidence is the first and most important element of the model.
