Abstract
The emergence of emerging powers is one of the important characteristics of the international landscape of modern times. The rise of China, India, Brazil, and South Korea has changed the geopolitical paradigms of world politics and is reflected in the international politics of all actors in the international order. Given the acceptable results of these countries in terms of development, the analysis of the nature of the performance of these countries is an undeniable necessity that can be considered as a solution for developing countries in the field of development management.
Introduction
The point that should not be forgotten is that The world now owes much of its economic growth to emerging economies, they have shown, and when the world's superpowers grapple with economic problems, it is the emerging economies that drive the world economic engine.
Case study
This study aims to provide a suitable model for development management in developing countries by studying how to manage development in emerging countries. The countries surveyed in this study are South Korea, China and India.
Materials and Methods
By examining the theoretical foundations, reviewing the research background and also historical-comparative study of the performance of selected countries, the conceptual model of development management in 5 groups and 32 sub-indicators including: Economic development (technology localization, ‌Export development, liberalization and competition, economic globalization, lack Use of underground resources, creation of a secure economic environment and business facilitation laws), political development (formation of parties, expansion of political groups, political integration, citizens' trust in sovereignty and legitimacy), socio-cultural development (use of indigenous culture) , Health, employment and social education, corruption, power distance and collectivism), bureaucracy (high quality of administrative laws, meritocracy, decentralization, abolition of monopolies, appropriate size of government, high quality of government decisions in domestic and foreign affairs, accountability of managers And the implementation of e-government and globalization (having constructive relations with the world, membership in international organizations, neutrality in international conflicts, the attitude of political elites to the international system and how to interact with dominant international actors) were designed.
Discussion and Results
The questionnaire was researched according to the obtained conceptual model and was distributed among 56 experts in the field of development to validate the research tool model. This number of experts through the Program and Budget Organization, Administrative and Employment Organization and researchers and authors in the field of development and identification Due to the small number of samples, the validation questionnaire was distributed among all 56 experts and then with the help of structural equation modeling and SMART PLS software, the model was approved and each of the dimensions and sub-indicators of development management was ranked.
Conclusion
Were. The results showed that socio-cultural development (power distance), bureaucracy (quality of laws), politics (formation of parties), economy (localization of imported technologies) and globalization (attitude of political elites to the international system) had the greatest role, respectively. Play in the development of emerging countries.
