Abstract

Following a series of sanctions imposed by the world domination regime against the Islamic Republic of Iran, economic security and, consequently, national security have been threatened. The totality of the conditions created as a result of the sanctions led to the creation of a new arena called the resistance economy for the continuation and manifestation of the national and economic authority of the country. In this regard, the question that arises is what effect does the strategy of resistance economy have on Iran's national security? The hypothesis of the article is that a resistance economy creates economic power in the country and this issue has a decisive role in reducing external threats and repairing internal vulnerabilities and improving the positive security of the country. The economic strength of any country not only plays a key role in maintaining independence and national sovereignty, but is also the most important factor in advancing foreign policy goals, especially for countries with broad political and ideological goals, because economic power, with the production of wealth, resources for Creates and maintains military power.
