Abstract

During the last two decades a number of state-led, large-scale property-led regenerations have been implemented in Iran. This chapter evaluates the reasons for the failure of these projects by critically discussing two case studies: one in Tehran (Navvab) and the other in Mashhad (the city centre). Mega-scale regeneration projects are usually associated with concerns about the social polarisation and spatial fragmentation in cities. These concerns can be observed more or less in many European redevelopment initiatives. Yet, reviewing mega-scale regeneration in Iranian cases reveals the existence of the same concerns, and more. Using the theory about state-failure, the chapter argues that the additional issues Iranian cities are involved with compared to European cases, is because of the dominance of the state-led approach and the lack of institutional capacity in regeneration programmes, leading to their failure.
