ALWAGHT- In economies under pressure, power derives not just from resources but from societal behavior. As society gravitates toward rationality, cooperation, and responsibility, a country's ability to navigate crises increases significantly. This transformation is where the resistance economy transcends from theoretical ideology to tangible social reality.
Iran's economic situation remains under sustained pressure despite moving away from direct conflict, with the main focus shifting towards establishing a sustainable model for national resilience.
The "instability of expectations" characterizes Iran's economy due to external and internal factors such as sanctions, financial restrictions, trade pressures, and regional conflicts. This sense of uncertainty shapes economic behavior more than actual variables.
Controlling emotional cycles in consumption, pricing, and inflationary expectations is crucial for the success of economic reform policies, with energy consumption management being a key area emphasized by President Masoud Pezeshkian.
The resistance economy aims to increase society's capacity to absorb shocks and pass through crises at lower cost, relying on social solidarity and collective responsibility to mitigate the cost of crisis.
External pressures, trade restrictions, and efforts to disrupt development are part of the reality facing Iran's economy, requiring management of societal psychology, controlling expectations, and strengthening economic hope alongside financial and monetary policies. The resistance economy should be seen as an architecture of economic governance focused on reducing vulnerability, increasing resource efficiency, and strengthening social capital.
