The Results of Constitutional Revolution for Qajar's Bureaucracy

The constitutional revolution of Iran, at least in theory, prepared the conditions forpeople’s presence in bureaucratic affairs, and bureaucratic reform was central to thenew devised constitutional law and its supplement. But unfortunately, in spite of somesuperficial changes, the intended purpose wasn’t accomplished sufficiently. The mainobstacle to these reforms was an undisputed dominance of traditional autocraticaddicts and its persistent opposition with any serious reform. Therefore, differentforms of false addicts like blind submission to the despot, illegal procedures, flattery,etc., survived the new regime. Hence, we might ask that to what extent the manifesteddemands, ideas and practical behavior of pioneer constitutionalists-including theirattempts to establish a lawful government- affected the bureaucracy and itsmanagement. The present paper aims to give an adequate answer to this question. Itsmethod is based upon an analytical survey of the mutual interaction between “act” and“structure” in the course of social developments and it intends to further develop thissurvey within systemic approach.
