This website is an electronic version of the Majmu’eh- ye Qavanin- e Majles- e Shawra. It is particularly useful for its annotations, indicating when a law was revised or repealed. I began this table for my own reference in order to negotiate the changes in calendar and sometimes discrepant dates in the secondary sources. I am grateful to Anna Enayat for her help with date conversions and translations of the titles of laws. Apart from the 1911 Registration of Docu- ments Law, all laws in this period are described as “temporary,” either in their titles or in their final article. To avoid confusion, the description has been omitted in this chronology. The law codes of the period sometimes had cumbersome names. I have included the Persian title only where the law is of particular importance historically or there may be ambiguity in its translation. 194 Chronology of Legal Reform (May 1911– June 1940) Third Majles: December 6, 1914– December 14, 1915 March 21, 1915 (Jamadi 5, 1 1333q) Penal Code (Qanun- e jaza‘).

  • Open Letter to His Excellency, Ayatollah Ali Hosseini Khamenei, Supreme Leader of the Islamic Republic of Iran
    1 His Excellency Ayatollah Ali Hosseini Khamenei Supreme Leader of the Islamic Republic of Iran The Office of the Supreme Leader Tehran Province, Tehran, District 11, Islamic Republic of Iran 17 February 2021 Joint open letter to His Excellency, Ayatollah Ali Hosseini Khamenei, Supreme Leader of the Islamic Republic of Iran Your Excellency, We, the undersigned, write to you to express our grave concern over the arbitrary imprisonment of Dr Reza Eslami in Tehran’s Evin Prison. Dr Eslami’s case is illustrative of the ongoing clampdown against the legal and academic professions in Iran. On Monday 15 February 2021, 58 countries launched the International Declaration Against Arbitrary Detention in State-to-State Relations1, characterizing such arbitrary detention as a standing violation of international law. The case against Dr Eslami is an emblematic assault on this rules-based international order. On 7 February 2021,2 Dr Reza Eslami, an Iranian-Canadian human rights and environmental law professor at Beheshti University,3 was sentenced to seven years imprisonment by Branch 15 of the Revolutionary Court after being charged with ‘cooperating with a hostile state.’4 The case against Dr Eslami is devoid of any credible evidence and derives from spurious charges to begin with. We believe that this case is based on his participation in a training course on the rule of law in the Czech Republic in 2020, funded by a United States-based non-government organisation (NGO). Dr Eslami has refuted the charges as baseless, stating that his academic work was free of ‘political, security and foreign- relations issues’5 .

  • Evaluation of the Social Reasons for Defeating Political Parties in Iran Between the Years of 1942-1954
    EVALUATION OF THE SOCIAL REASONS FOR DEFEATING POLITICAL PARTIES IN IRAN BETWEEN THE YEARS OF 1942-1954 ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS SUBMITTED FOR THE AWARD OF THE DEGREE OF Mottov of $t|iIos;opIip IN SOCIOLOGY BY Naser Haghi Ghareh Darvishlou UNDER THE SUPERVISION OF Dr. Mohammad Akram DEPARTMENT OF SOCIOLOGY AND SOCIAL WORK ALIGARH MUSLIM UNIVERSITY ALIGARH (IIMOIA) 2012 -S5LM9 Political parties appeared on the scene when actions of an erstwhile political system attained a point of complexity that needed the introduction of a new political setup. Usually, political parties emerge when different classes of society become aware of their own interests, and the people of a country want the right to take part in political issues. The nineteenth century was an important phase in Iranian history, wherein political, social and economic corruption were the most obvious problem that Iranians faced. Tremendous increases of such problems have been the reason for the occurrence of all revolutions and reforms in Iran. With the allied occupation of Iran and the exile of Reza Shah, social chaos increased in the 1940s. Also, as a resuU of the Second World War, and because of the lack of a steady government, the country was led to anarchy. This problem offended Iranians more when they became aware of the degree and speed of development in the western countries. When Iranian intellectuals came into direct contact with western countries, they tried to regenerate the political structure of their own country to bring about political stability. After Reza Shah, especially between 1942 and 1954, there came a unique historical opportimity for Iranian elites to form a democratic political structure, whereas during the reign of Reza Shah, political parties and other active groups had been inactive.

    HISTORY AND DEVELOPMENT OF BROADCASTING IN IRAN Bigan Kimiachi A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY June 1978 © 1978 BI GAN KIMIACHI ALL RIGHTS RESERVED n iii ABSTRACT Geophysical and geopolitical pecularities of Iran have made it a land of international importance throughout recorded history, especially since its emergence in the twentieth century as a dominant power among the newly affluent oil-producing nations of the Middle East. Nearly one-fifth the size of the United States, with similar extremes of geography and climate, and a population approaching 35 million, Iran has been ruled since 1941 by His Majesty Shahanshah Aryamehr. While he has sought to restore and preserve the cultural heritage of ancient and Islamic Persia, he has also promoted the rapid westernization and modernization of Iran, including the establishment of a radio and television broadcasting system second only to that of Japan among the nations of Asia, a fact which is little known to Europeans or Americans. The purpose of this study was to amass and present a comprehensive body of knowledge concerning the development of broadcasting in Iran, as well as a review of current operations and plans for future development. A short survey of the political and spiritual history of pre-Islamic and Islamic Persia and a general survey of mass communication in Persia and Iran, especially from the Il iv advent of the telegraph is presented, so that the development of broadcasting might be seen in proper perspective and be more fully appreciated.

    DIRECTORATE OF INTELLIGENCE Intelligence Report Centers of Power in Iran May 1972 No. 2035/72 . — • A Mountain Village, Typical of Most of Iran A Modern Housing Development, Still Limited to a Few Urban Areas CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE AGENCY Directorate of Intelligence May 1972 INTELLIGENCE REPORT Centers of Power in Iran The study of politics is the study of influence and the influential.... The influential are those who get the most of what there is to get. Those who get the most are the elite; the rest are mass. (Harold Lasswell) Summary One of the most dramatic efforts at modernization among the less developed countries is taking place in Iran. This modernization follows no bloody coup or overturn of the social order, but is an attempt by a long-established political and social system to adapt itself and its institutions to new needs. Power in Iran remains, as it has been, in the hands of a small segment of society which enjoys the available rewards of money, status, and political influence. Heading the list of the privileged few is the Shah, followed by the royal family, and courtiers, followed by politicians, influential businessmen, entrepreneurs, and educators. A new class of professional bureaucratic intel- ligentsia is beginning to emerge; if this group is not absorbed by the elite, it may play an increasingly important independent role. In the privileged group, but playing an essentially negative role at present, are those members of the educated professional class—some even from establishment families— who refuse to cooperate with the ruling elite, and the clergy, whose strength lies in the emotions of the Iranian masses and whose opposition to the Shah's government is nearly total.
