Effective policymaking in the judicial domain for sustainable governance requires integrating political, economic, social, and security factors. A primary concern is that certain judicial policies aimed at combating corruption and recovering illicit assets remain overly dependent on political and security considerations, thereby neglecting the human and social dimensions essential for holistic anti-corruption frameworks. Iran’s legal system enshrines anti-corruption and asset recovery as constitutional imperatives, positioning them as superior norms within its overarching policy architecture. Corruption has emerged as a priority challenge across regional, national, and international levels. Judicial rulings and state policies reveal multidimensional strategies to address this systemic issue. This article employs a descriptive-analytical methodology drawing on doctrinal legal analysis to examine anti-corruption frameworks and asset recovery mechanisms. The analysis prioritizes international conventions (e.g. UNCAC) and anti-corruption institutions, whose standards inform domestic legal harmonization globally. International coordination has institutionalized more robust anti-corruption regimes. At the national level, key interventions include: i) strengthening interagency cooperation, ii) enhanced prosecution protocols, and iii) transparency mechanisms (e.g. national corruption reports). The study addresses two core questions: 1) What are the general policies for preventing and combating corruption in Iran's legal system? 2) How does Iran’s framework operationalize illicit asset recovery? Iran’s legal system codifies these priorities under the Supreme Leader’s Five-Year Judicial Policies (Clause 3), emphasizing prevention, interagency collaboration, and asset recovery as foundational principles. This approach reflects global best practices, evidenced by comparative legal adoption.
