The Vice-Chancellor for Research and Technology of the Faculty of Literature and Humanities at Lorestan University, on the occasion of Research and Technology Week, and in line with the university's social responsibility, held a promotional scientific chair titled "Iranian Legislative Policy in Crime Prevention," presented by Dr. Hamidreza Kargar, a faculty member of the Law Department at Lorestan University.

According to the Public Relations of Lorestan University, the critics of the chair were Dr. Farshad Changaei, a faculty member of the Law Department at Shahid Chamran University of Ahvaz, and Dr. Rasoul Karami-Moghadam, a faculty member of the Law Department at Lorestan University.

The summary of the chair is as follows:

Acceptance of the superiority of the rational and logical rule of prevention over treatment has led judicial and criminal policies to choose effective methods to deter individuals from committing or repeating crimes, and by reducing the rate of crime recurrence, while limiting the criminal population, to slow down the cycle of case entry into the judiciary.

Of course, the issue of crime prevention is not a new matter that humans have recently become acquainted with; rather, it has a history as long as the emergence of humanity, and it is, in fact, one of the problems that divine rulings and human laws have also emphasized, and criminologists, jurists, and others have always been seeking a way to solve this problem and the scourge of human societies throughout history.

Considering the aforementioned principle, the most important method of reducing the entry of cases into the courts is considered to be deep and precise attention to the preventive aspect of behaviors and policies to combat and control crime, in such a way that efforts are initially focused on keeping the crime rate statistics constant and ultimately reducing the crime rate.

The Constitution of the Islamic Republic of Iran, by taking this important principle as its guiding principle, considers the prevention of crime and the reform of criminals as the duties of the judiciary, and based on Article 156, Clause 5 of the Constitution, this duty is explicitly on the shoulders of this branch of government.

In the chair, Dr. Changaei, as a critic of the session, while expressing the problems of legislation in the field of crime prevention, emphasized the management of crime in the sense of controlling it.

In this chair, some of the characteristics of the crime prevention law were mentioned, and some of the most important deficiencies of this law were examined and legally analyzed.

At the end of the chair, the scientific questions of the critics and students were answered.
