Abstract

Correct policymaking in the jurisdiction to achieve sustainable development goals requires considering a diverse range of political, economic, social and security considerations. The main concern is that some of the judicial policies of fighting corruption and restitution of assets caused by corruption have been dominated by political and security relations, and this means ignoring the human and social aspects of supply and demand in judicial policy making. In this article, using a descriptive, analytical and library-based method, the analysis of the general policies of preventing and dealing with corruption and restitution of the resulting assets has been analyzed. Finally, according to the nature and position of these policies, the main question of the research is: What are the general policies of preventing and dealing with corruption in Iran's legal system?
