Abstract:  
Inefficiencies and criticisms of the traditional model of curbing the criminal phenomenon, as well as the achievements of special criminal sciences in recent decades, have led to a fundamental and new change in the ideas, patterns and tools of litigation. And new species have been punished. Today, one of the main challenges in the discussion of laws is that excessive resorting to the guarantee of criminal enforcement has limited the freedoms of individuals, imposed high costs on the government and disrupted the functioning of the judiciary. Decriminalization is one of the levers and mechanisms used by the legislature as a policy of retreating the penal system, thereby depriving criminals of their criminal titles. The findings of the present study show that the Iranian legislature, inspired by the basic principles of criminal law, can take a new step, or in other words, a justice-oriented reading in order to decriminalize and adapt Iran's criminal policy based on global model and model of criminalization.
