The main goal of the present research is to study the different effects of globalization, through understanding the transformation of development paradigms, especially the modernization approach and its influence on the population policy in Iran before the 1979 Revolution and during the period from 1963 to 1979. Research methodology was library method; and using quantitative and qualitative methods, proportional to different parts of research, the population policies have been examined. The present study examines Iran’s entry into the global system and illustrates the domination of development discourses as the paradigms dominating the underdeveloped countries. This study shows how the government at that time used the dominant paradigm of modernization to implement the policy of reducing population growth through the population transfer theory, and paved the way for changing the structure of the population, and as a result reduced population growth in Iran from 3.2 percent in 1963 to 2.6 percent in 1976.
