Abstract
One of the basic policies of the Iranian government in the program of rural development and reducing inequalities between cities and villages is the establishment of industry in villages in the form of creating industrial towns. However, the results of some research show that these towns have not always been a successful model of rural industrialization. For this reason and considering the gap created between the expectations and the existing conditions of the industrial town of Mozaik Sazan (Eshghabad) which is established in the Qale no sector of Rey, it was investigated with a qualitative method. Since the thematic analysis method was considered suitable for conducting this research, 27 informed people were selected and interviewed using theoretical sampling and based on data saturation. According to the results, the positive effects of this settlement on the economic life of the residents, such as the increase in the level of employment, and the increase in the price of land, are quite evident. But the results such as the creation of urban elements and manifestations in the villages, lack of per capita growth, the arrival of national immigrants, the decrease in the level of trust, environmental problems such as water and air pollution, illegal withdrawals from water resources, raw sewage overflowing from the industrial town to the edge of the fields are also among the problems created. The lack of workers' insurance, the lack of job skills in the residents, and the lack of attention to the residents' demands have created a situation for development from top to bottom. But the most important consequence of this issue has been the decline of prosperity of agriculture and animal husbandry in this area, which was once one of the poles of agriculture and animal husbandry in Tehran province.
