Abstract
One of the concepts which has always been studied by development scholars, is (un)equilibrium. The concept has been distinguished sectorally (agriculture/industry/service), economically (production/consumption) and regionally. Despite many advances in this field, there are plenty of countries which are suffering from the outcomes and impacts of imbalanced development (centralized development).
This study is trying to concentrate on the relationship between macroeconomic growth in national level and regional centralization of development. At first, development theories are concerned to find the nature of the relation. In fact, the answer of various theories is summarized. Then, by using secondary data in Iran the relationship is pursued.
The results show that centralized development is not concerned in conventional theories when the issue is the core of non-conventional ideas. In addition, quantitative indicators show strong negative correlation between macroeconomic growth and regionally centralized development in Iran while development process in this country has been more regionally centralized.
