The concept of "malignant issues" has been used since the 1970s in the literature on social sciences, economics, and management, and has grown widely since then. Some of the major issues of public policy in Iran are more or less similar to malignant issues. Issues such as the environment and water, the banking system, the tax system, the status of retirement funds and withdrawal from the recession have somewhat similarities to malignant issues. Literature and knowledge produced on malignant matters can help improve our understanding of public policy in this field. A simple database search reveals that there are a handful of fingers of malignant issues in Persian, and the main books and articles in this field are not translated into Persian.
