Center-Directed Development and Social Consensus of Ethnic Minorities in Iran

The present paper has attempted to investigate issues related to center-Directed development and its relationship with social Consensus among ethnic minorities of Iran. The researcher used documentary and library research methods for data gathering; finally, the analysis of the data has been conducted based on a hybrid-analytical method. It was indicated that in the Iranian society there is a direct relationship between the increase in Human Development Indices (HDI) including gross domestic product per capita, life expectancy, literacy level and social Consensus. Also it was shown that the less developed provinces also face less social Consensus and this problem has caused some divergences and ethnical movements in some of these areas
