Abstract :

Today, one of the major destabilizing urban challenges is a type of urbanization with acute problems of informal settlement or marginalization. One of the most obvious manifestations of the rapid growth of urbanization is the formation of informal settlements in many developing countries, including Iran, which has become a symbol of urban poverty. This research has been carried out in order to investigate the indicators and dimensions of social consequences caused by the growth of informal settlements in eslamshahr and to provide a model to control and solve them. This research is practical in terms of targeting and in terms of descriptive-analytical method. In order to collect data and information, two methods of library-documents and field method of survey have been used. The statistical population of the current research includes experts and active managers in the field of urban management in eslamshahr. The findings indicated that the growth of informal settlements has a direct, positive and significant effect on the social consequences caused by the growth of informal settlements. Also, since the correlation coefficient (standard coefficient) between the two variables is equal to 0.75, it can be concluded that the growth of informal settlements has a direct, positive and significant effect on the social consequences caused by the growth of informal settlements, and the intensity of this effect 0.75). Based on the focal correlation results, the index of economic issues with a %35 influence on the total of other variables has been ranked first. In addition, based on the analysis, the highest degree of correlation in the indicators can be seen between health issues and welfare facilities and leisure time in the informal settlements of eslamshahr
