In this paper we review the welfare system projected in the Iran constitution and revaluation Leader opinion in order to understand country ideal image of its welfare state. Then, using the available information and look at the historical development of welfare policies in the country, we did a typology of the welfare system by the framework of Anderson’s Three Worlds of Welfare Capitalism concept. The results shows differences between constitution expectations of the welfare system and the reality of these policies are significant; Second, dual structure of the State and Para-Governmental Organizations which are responsible for welfare policy makes welfare system analysis more complicated; Third, based on Anderson’s model comparison, Iran welfare system with regard to its focusing on the family's responsibility for welfare and providing minimal state support is a combines of Christian conservative and liberal welfare system. A conclusion that shows the immense distance between the reality of Iran’s welfare system and the ideals of the revolution, as well as the explicit prescription of the constitution.

Public procurement of innovation (PPI), and its antecedent public technology procurement (PTP), is one of modern demand-side innovation policies being bolded over the last decade, which could complement the classic approach of local content policies (LCPs). In Public procurement of innovation (PPI), the goal is to utilize the capacity of public procurement and to target development of innovation and technology in procured products, instead of procuring routine goods and services for public body. It should be said that the two concepts of innovationfriendly public procurement and pre-commercial procurement (PCP) are close but distinct to public procurement of innovation. Due to the changes required in public procurement process and behaviors and capabilities of procurer and also tenderers, there are considerable challenges before success of this demand-side innovation policy. Amongst them, we could point to risk management of public employees and managers, monitoring and evaluation of the policy and tender process and tenderers, need to promote tenderers’ capabilities, need to promote absorptive capacity of public procurer, need to define a multi-task interdisciplinary intermediation structure, compliance with routine temporal and financial obligations of tenders, legal challenges and compensation. Furthermore, in developing countries such as Iran where technology transfer needs are bolded more than technology and innovation development, it is necessary to develop a literature consistent with technology transfer needs. Fortunately, there have been a start of some researches and practices in oil industry of Iran, and previously in the defense industries.

In this paper, the history behind the development of science in Islamic civilization infrastructures has been explained at the first place and then the causes of developments in science and technology among Muslims have been explored. Generally, Muslims invented a spectrum of science to meet the needs of Islamic society and to satisfy their thirst of knowledge. Besides they adopted another spectrum of science from other nations and tribes. Both fields of sciences grew to a remarkable level of development and excellence then. Islam encourages learning and gaining knowledge which is the basis of Muslims’ growth. Another reason for science and knowledge growth among Muslims was the patience and interactive resilient relations with lettered and knowing people. This resilience and patience was the social driving motor for obtaining the science of other nations and resulted in a decent atmosphere for research and the Scientifics’ development.

In today’s world where knowledge-based economy is playing a major role in prosperity and welfare of nations toward a sustainable economic development, there is an increasing demand for monitoring and evaluation (M&E) of science, technology and innovation (STI) status of countries. Monitoring and evaluation (M&E) of science and technology (S&T) is intertwined with STI indicators and the conceptual model mapped on. The present research aid policy makers in designing national STI M&E models through providing comparison, categorization, benchmarking and systematic use of the plethora of diverse models available for monitoring and evaluation of STI systems being fragmentedly developed by countries and international organizations. In this regard, six criteria are suggested for comparison and categorization of these models, including coverage (comprehensiveness), implementation, simplicity, comparability, aims and functions (CISCAF framework). These criteria were developed by review of 22 well-known international and national models out of a research project on monitoring STI system of Iran during 2014-2016. Visual mapping of the first four criteria produced a Cartesian diagram composed of four main quadrants and 16 sub-quadrants. The aim and function criteria are composed of 7 and 8 states, respectively.

This bilateral relations is mentioned as Science and Technology Diplomacy in the scientific and political literature. Codification of science and technology diplomacy policies and use of oppourtunities in order to enhance and develop science and technology and also achieving political goals of our country is only possible with enough recognition of STD aspects and also other countries performance in STD. Therefore, this study is tried to introduce the concept of science and technolgy diplomacy and to evaluate the performance of other countries in STD. United States of America, Germany, Japan, England, France and Islamic Republic of Iran are studied in this research. While there are similaritie, differences and initiatives are shown in the selected countries STD experiences. Obviously, identifying this initiatives will promote Islamic Reppubic of Iran optimal science and technology diplomacy policies.
