As the added value of the industry sector increases and industries gain a higher share in the national economy, the ground is provided for higher rates of economic growth in societies. Therefore, considering the strategic significance of the industrial sector in the economic growth and development of the country, in the present study attempts are made to analyze the general industrial policies adopted by the ruling system of Iran. Thus, the present study seeks to discover the areas related to general industrial policies of the ruling system on which the supreme leader has laid greatest emphasis and determine the industrial matters that most concern the country's supreme leader. The present study also seeks to specify the most emphasized and important factors associated with industrial policies put forward by the supreme leader of the country. The present study falls into the category of qualitative studies and is conducted using content analysis method. The required data were collected through thematic search for research keywords and applying the research protocol on the general industrial policies adopted by the ruling system. The collected data were analyzed using a mixed (quantitative-qualitative) method. The population of the study includes general policies of the ruling system; therefore, the population and the sample size completely match each other. The results indicate that among the policies put forward by the Supreme Leader, "support for domestic production", "enhancement and growth of productivity" and "expansion of the economy and knowledge-based industries" have the largest shares and coefficients of importance.
