Abstract

This paper tries to analyse the structural changes of the Iranian economy during 1969-1988.
For this purpose the Input - Output tables of 1969, 1974, 1984and 1988 have been used. The original tables were at current prices and therefore could not be used to quantify the structural changes of the Iranian economy in real term. For this purpose, after making sectoral comparisons, and taking the year 1974 as the base year, all the tables have been deflated by using the double deflation methods.
