Abstract In recent years, the role and active participation of local and municipal administration in the field of economic development has been accepted as one of the new missions of urban management. One of the most important measures to improve the economic capacity of the cities is to improve the business environment. The importance of paying attention to the business environment is a direct link between the development indicators in a city and the analysis of the effects and implications for development of the city, which is of interest to experts. Currently, in Iran, the business environment is measured only at the national and provincial levels. But it should be noted that focusing on lower levels, such as cities, is important as well because in some cities, dominated situation could not be explained and analyzed by the economic trends in national level. Hence, in this article, studying business environment in Sadra's new city and the effects on development of the city are considered. The method of the research is a questionnaire in combination with interviews. Using a targeted sampling method, 54 economic activists in Sadra were interviewed and the same questionnaire containing 57 questions was distributed and completed. The results of the research show that the business environment of Sadra city, is lower than average. In this situation, the city's business enterprises have not been able to perform well enough and the private sector has moved to underground, unproductive and informal economies. Keywords: Sadra's New City, Business Space, Small and Medium Sized Enterprises, Urban Development

Recognition of Social and Cultural Norms in Urban Public Spaces of Tehran Baharan Tonekanoni[1] , Pouyan Shahabiyan[2] Receive: 3/10/2017 Accept: 11/11/2017 Abstract Urban public spaces meet a large part of the social needs of people in urban societies. Considering that the interaction of citizens with public spaces on the one hand and the communication of citizens in public spaces on the other is a requirement of urban living; recognition of the quality and properties of these urban spaces and the social-cultural norms of them seems necessary. The current research, using the ''Grounded Theory'' method, attempts to extract related and defining categories of urban public spaces in Tehran Contemporary era. According to the views of users of these spaces, the categories are: equality, comfort and comfort, diversity, communication and interaction, mental image and meaning, tendency, awareness, sense of belonging and collective identity, harmony, freedom, presence, dynamism And vitality. Also, the most important issue facing spaces is "balance and justice" in various dimensions and categories; Tehran's urban public spaces can be considered as balanced and fair spaces that can be found in all aspects and categories But it seems that nowadays, every space that can even satisfy a small part of the human need in the urban public space has to be accepted as a public urban space, while its quality and level of achievement to the criteria and norms of an ideal urban public space should be discussed. For this purpose, in this research, it has been tried to explain, what “should be done” and what “should not be done” or in other words, the related social-cultural - privative and affectionate – norms according to the aspects, concepts, issues and challenges regarding these spaces.
