        Tehran Bazaar is one of the traditional and local institutions of Iranian society. During the Pahlavi period, Iran's political system, relying on a kind of modernist ideology, undertook policies that weakened Tehran's Bazaar, but with the occurrence of the Islamic Revolution, it was expected that in the light of the ideology of the Islamic Republic system, which emphasized a kind of local modernity, the Bazaar would take the path of strengthening and revitalization. Therefore, this article studies the consequences of urban policies on the status and position of the Bazaar in Tehran in the post-revolutionary period. In this study, a combination of interviews with experts and document study was used, and the data were analyzed and summarized using content analysis. Urban policies implemented and affecting Tehran Bazaar have been examined under the three main categories of "Transferring the functions of the Tehran Bazaar to commercial centers", "Strengthening the tourism function of the Tehran Bazaar and "Protecting and revitalizing the Tehran Bazaar". The overall result of these policies has been to weaken the Bazaar in most functions and to intensify the process of transforming the Tehran Bazaar from a multifunctional social institution to a purely commercial institution.
