Abstract :
Over the past 20 years, new urbanism has become one of the most prominent urban design movements in the United States. Others have found that neo-urbanism is potentially the most influential architectural movement in the United States in the post-Cold War era. New urbanism has emerged as a new approach to urban design and planning in its critique of contemporary urban planning, which has a scattered, inhuman, and mechanistic pattern. The goal of neo-urbanism is to create a suitable environment on a human scale that is responsive to modern urban developments and developments in line with the goals of sustainable development. The rapid growth of the city of Tabriz in recent years has created many needs in neighborhoods and urban textures and the creation of new textures, including marginal textures. Existence of worn-out and suburban textures and the influence of traditional and modernist ideas and stereotyped imitations in preparing urban development plans and creating new urban textures have caused many problems in Tabriz that these problems can be considered as the most important reasons for unsustainable development of Tabriz. In this regard, considering that the new urbanism approach is one of the most important examples of sustainable urban development, we have tried to identify the effective factors in urban development based on this view and introduce vital drivers among them. To this end, with an applied-development approach using common methods in futures studies, including the Delphi method and cross-sectional analysis method, and using MICMAC software, among the 41 effective factors identified by the Delphi group, 15 factors as vital drivers of urban development of Tabriz was discovered based on the view of new urbanism.
