Legislative Criminal Policy of Islamic Republic of Iran in Confrontation with Non-Observance of Canonical Hijab

Non-observance of Hijab has been the major concern of the individuals worrying about Islamic Republic of Iran. The old and ineffective legislative criminal policy and absence of a proper output from the government has added to the issue and the efforts have just resulted in specification of punishments for the individuals. Thus, the main issue is that why this legislative policy has not been able to be effective and promising in the face of such a phenomenon? This is while scrutiny in the well-known criminological theories and field research performed in the scientific articles enables clever actualization of this old wish of the government and worriers through repairing the current legislative policy. To achieve this goal, the criminal legislation route should be, in the first place, tangibly shifted in its inclusion from certain persons who just consume the values generated by the socially superior persons towards the very constructors of the values and, in the second place, legislative and criminal strategies drawn on the sure criminological principles should be thought of in line with the elimination of causes considering the expansion of bad hijab that, as evidenced in the prior studies, has come about following the satisfaction of the individuals’ inherent need for social confirmation thereby to bear witness to the paling of the effect without its corrupt sequence (which is the very creation of gap between the government and the people); an example of such strategies can be enforcement of the non-discountable and unchangeable pecuniary punishments on the stores and offices that do not dismiss the women with bad hijab from their environment. This study has been conducted based on a fundamental method and it is a theoretical research; in terms of nature, the study method is descriptive of analytical type.
