             New approaches on informal settlements show that there is a reduction in technical and physical aspects as well as increase in environmental, social and human aspects , Gradually and impressed from theoretical perspectives such as enabling and revision on the governments' role in providing housing and services. On this basis, settlements by low-income people is built regarded as a part of the capital city society which must be proceeded to manage and regularize such settlements via participatory planning with emphasis on their participation to understand priorities and practices.         Although it has been talked about participation so much in Urban Planning literature and Informal settlements plans; but effective solutions for building motivation of public involvement in process of preparation and implementation of plans are yet ambiguous and insufficient. As a result, most of developing countries are not able to apply participation in their plans; and as a consequence, physical and intellectual capitals are thrown away.      This research struggles to identify the obstacles of citizens’ participation in Squatter Settlements upgrading Plans upon psycho-sociological theories and assess suitable solutions in framework of these theories. It is expected that using effective tools for participation motivation building, makes involvement of residents in improvement their settlement possible. Manuscript profile

        The exploration of the intrinsic meaning and origin of justice represents one of the most intricate philosophical and moral inquiries. The discourse on how justice is manifested in the world, grounded in civilization, has been a perennial subject among theorists. This research delves into elucidating a comprehensive definition of the Iranian paradigm for a just city, with a specific focus on its realization within the framework of the Farahzad Urban Development Plan in Tehran. The novel paradigm is rooted in three dimensions of justice—law, ethics, and civilization—emphasizing four fundamental aspects: substantive, formal, distributive, and structural justice. The research adopts an applied-developmental approach in terms of purpose and a descriptive-analytical methodology. Data collection involves both documentary research and field investigations, incorporating interviews and questionnaires. The study's statistical population comprises residents, experts, and city officials, and the results are analyzed using SPSS software with a combination of descriptive and inferential statistics. The Bogardos method reveals a significant social distance and an unfavorable universality range among diverse social groups in Farahzad. The sample test and Pearson correlation analysis highlight a non-realization of just city components in the current Farahzad situation from citizens' perspectives. Conversely, an assessment of the approved plan, "Organizing Farahzad Urban Center," underscores its desirability in terms of law and ethics but identifies unfavorable socialist dimensions according to expert evaluations. Significantly, the results demonstrate a meaningful relationship between structural justice and distributive justice in the pursuit of justice-oriented dimensions based on essential and formal aspects.

Data collection was done by field and library studies. The statistical population 384 people were selected by Cochran method. Probit test, one-sample t-test, multiple linear regression test and Todim model were used to analyze the data using SPSS, Excel and GIS software.Findings showed that some land uses were less than expected and some more than the capacity of the city was distributed and the desired limit was not observed. According to the regression test, the correlation between structural-functional changes and urban development plans is 0.908. And the implementation of urban development plans according to R2 statistics explains about 82% of the structural-functional changes in Zanjan.
