        By studying financial crises and stress in recent years, especially in Iran, and its rapid spread and transfer to the economy, it can be seen that the effects of financial stress on macro variables in the field of knowledge-based economy have been given less attention. Therefore, the aim of this research is to estimate the response of macro variables related to the field of the knowledge economy (economic complexity index) in the face of financial stress shocks in Iran. In order to achieve this goal, the effects of systemic financial stress shocks on economic complexity and its determinants, including foreign direct investment, are evaluated during the period of 2017-2018 with the help of the Bayesian autoregression approach. The results of the study show It shows that the investigated variables, including economic complexity and foreign direct investment, react negatively to financial stress shocks in the long term, and their reaction is dampened over time.

        This research analyzed the impact of economic complexity index & business strategies on firms’ capital expenditure analytically. The importance of this study is consistent to Iran's vision plan goals which in achieving to economic growth & development, using advanced knowledge and ability to use new sciences & technologies require appropriate investment decisions at micro level. Research population includes 166 firms listed in Tehran Securities & Exchange over the period March 2012 till March 2018. Research Hypotheses investigated by using multivariate regression models based on panel data with fixed effect and generalized least squares method. Research findings showed that more economic complexity index lead to managers to invest more because of reaction to economic environment conditions. Also, defensive strategy had meaningful and negative impact, but prospective strategy had meaningful and positive impact on firms’ capital expenditure. However, analytic strategy had on impact on firms’ capital expenditure. Complementary evidences illustrated that interaction between defensive strategy and economic complexity index had meaningful and negative impact, but interaction between prospective strategy and economic complexity index had meaningful and positive impact on firms’ capital expenditure. However, interaction between analytic strategy and economic complexity index had on impact on firms’ capital expenditure. Manuscript profile

        Introduction With the characteristics of knowledge, information and communication technology creates spillover effects in production and causes economic complexity. This technology has advantages such as reducing costs, overcoming geographical boundaries, increasing the flow of information, ensuring transactions due to quick access to information and increasing competitiveness. Method The statistical data used in this research is from the World Bank and the MIT University website during the years 2000-2020, and Eviews software was used to estimate the proposed model. In this research, the vector auto regressive model is used, and according to the Schwartz Bayesian criterion, the optimal interval is determined. To perform the cointegration test, Johansen's cointegration test is used. In the inference related to a vector auto regressive model, attention is paid to shock response functions and variance decomposition. A shock response separates the components of the endogenous variables into shocks with mutations to specific variables. We examine the impact of this shock over a 10-year plan. Results The time series data of this study are all stationary and based on the Schwartz-Bayesian criterion, the optimal interval is one. The results of the Johansen test indicate the existence of a long-term relationship between the research variables and the estimate shows the positive impact of Internet users and the import of ICT goods on economic complexity in the long term. The F statistic in the estimation of the research model based on vector auto regressive is significant and 87% of the economic complexity changes are explained by the model variables. The impact of the ICT product import shock on economic complexity is positive in all years and this impact is positive for Internet users in all years except the second to third year. Also, the effect of variance analysis of economic complexity shows that the import of ICT goods and Internet users has a positive role in explaining the changes of economic complexity and the share of import of the desired goods is higher. Discussion This research states that if the economy can transfer a large amount of knowledge and skills to Internet users in the form of large networks of people, and also the necessary platforms are provided through ICT products, which are important in this field, a diverse set of Knowledge goods are produced and a more complex economy is obtained.

        The importance of industrialization in any society is such that many economists consider industrial development as the main development factor of a country. The industrial sector is able to play a key role in providing many necessities of human life and the economic growth of societies by taking advantage of concentrated physical capital, natural resources and raw materials, manpower and technical knowledge. The scarcity of financial resources in Iran's economy has intensified in the last few years, and the optimal direction of limited funds and the correct selection of economic sectors for investment is a necessary thing, and the industrial planning of regions within the framework of a systemic approach is to determine the growth pattern for that region in accordance with its potentials. It is of special importance. In this article, by applying the theory of product space and network science and using information related to the production structure of selected provinces of Iran in the years 2013-2017 related to thirty-two products based on ISIC codes, it has been tried in a systematic approach to produce products with an obvious relative advantage. The selected provinces of Iran have been identified and the path and roadmap of industrial development of these provinces have been drawn. Then, the probability of diversification of products without revealed relative advantage was calculated for all the selected provinces and the industrial development path of the selected provinces was determined based on the greedy strategy. The results of the research showed that among the 32 Manuscript profile

        This study,, Application of Economic Complexity Theory in Industrial Policy Making, aims to study the economic growth process.Complex economics provides a powerful and universal tool for understanding key economic and social issues and related challenges. The basic idea is that economic growth and development, environmental sustainability, income inequality and spatial inequality are visible outcomes of latent systemic relationships. The study of economic complexity aims to understand the structure of these interactions and how various socioeconomic processes are formed. This emerging field relies heavily on machine learning and network science techniques. The purpose of this article is to examine the applications of economic complexity to its application in various fields, including industrial policy. The results of this survey show that over the past decade, despite some criticism, techniques for measuring economic complexity and related indicators have evolved into a well-known method for planning industrial policy at the international and national levels (states and cities).Keywords: Economic complexity, industrial policy, network science.

        AbstractEconomic complexity indicates the amount of productive knowledge within a country and the ability to use that knowledge to produce goods with more diversity and less ubiquity, which ultimately increases national competitiveness in the global arena and accelerates the process of achieving economic growth and development. Therefore, determining the factors affecting it - especially in developing countries - is of great importance. In this regard, the present study, by approaching panel data and using the generalized moment method, has determined the interactive effect of entrepreneurship and financial development on economic complexity in two groups of developing and developed selected countries during the period 2014-2019. Estimated results showed that the dimensions of entrepreneurship, including attitudes, abilities & aspirations of entrepreneurial, as well as financial development have a positive and significant effect on economic complexity in both groups of selected countries. However, the estimated coefficient of these variables is larger for developing countries. In addition, the three dimensions of entrepreneurship and financial development have a positive and significant interactive effect on economic complexity in both groups of selected countries. Finally, the effect of the control variables of natural resource abundance and intellectual property rights on economic complexity in both groups of selected countries respectively are negative and significant and positive and significant.

        Abstract Economic complexity is a concept that shows the ability of countries to produce complex goods and use knowledge in the production process by improving the productive structure. The economic complexity of the knowledge channel leads to the saving of resources and the improvement of the quality of productive institutions and the formation of productive production structures that diversify goods and save on production costs and earn more income and affect income distribution and welfare. Brings with it social. Given the importance of income distribution in the economy, this study uses the approach of economic complexity and dynamic Generalized Method of Moments, method to investigate the effect of economic complexity on income inequality in a selection of developing countries during the period 1995-2020. According to the results, with increasing economic complexity in developing countries, income distribution has become more unfair. The imbalance of income distribution in these countries is due to the concentration of assets, capital and production activities in the hands of a particular group, as well as the existence of cultural, social, gender, etc. inequalities and rents created as a result of this inequality.

        The most important relative advantage of Iran has been the export of crude oil and natural gas for a long time. Considering the raw nature of these products, specialization in the production and export of these products will not have a significant impact on Iran's sustainable growth. One of the solutions is to infiltrate the downstream industries of these products, the most important of which is the development of the petrochemical industry. In this sense, since the expansion of export markets is considered as one of the important strategies in the field of marketing, the aim of this research is to identify and prioritize the export opportunities of Iran's petrochemical industry products by developing an integrated decision support model - economic complexity, in five countries that are members of the Eurasian Economic Union. It includes Belarus, Kazakhstan, Russia, Kyrgyzstan, and Armenia, and the member countries of ECOTA trade agreements include Afghanistan, Pakistan, Tajikistan, and Turkey.the current research is applied in terms of purpose, descriptive-survey in terms of data collection, and a mixed type of research. The statistical population of the research was formed by the member countries of ECO and Eurasia trade agreements during the period of 2014 to 2021. First, in order to identify the factors affecting the development of export opportunities, using a questionnaire and a fuzzy Delphi model, based on the opinions of experts working in the private sector and petrochemical companies, experts working in specialized government jobs of the Ministry of Health, and academic experts, Manuscript profile
