Reviewing the fate of political parties in the fifth national parliament

It is so important to investigate how political parties operated during the post constitutional revolution period, especially in the fifth national parliament. The performance and inefficiency of political parties during this period of the parliamentary cycles paved the way for the first Pahlavi (Reza Khan) to come to power. The principal question is that how did the political parties facilitate the transfer of power from Qajar to Pahlavi and determine the result of their political activity. The main theory is that the political parties paved the way for this political transmission through various ways, such as lack of political cohesion, weak attitude in political interaction, dissension and diversity of views. It is important to address the role of political parties in how to transmit power and participate in the issue of political power. Political parties as organizations which provide political participation for people and transmit power peacefully from one step to the next, have played an important role during historical periods.  Accordingly, addressing such issues provides an understanding of the past, a light for the future and a context for recognizing the political parties' attitudes and approach in each period. The research approach is historical and analytical-descriptive; and for collecting material the library method is used.
