An Inquiry Into the of Exploitation Views on the Second Pahlavi's Modern State

One of the most important aspects of contemporary Iranian history has been the formation of modern state and its functional evolvement. In fact، one of the most important changes in the aftermath of Iranian constitutional revolution has been the changes in the nature، structure، and functions of government. That is why theorists and analysts of contemporary history express different views on Iranian governments and in particular on the governments during the reign of Pahlavi the second. These analysts use different approaches such as traditionalism، integrative، comparative and extraversions in their reflection on the government in Iran. Such studies include Ravasani ’s “dependent governments” Gasiorowski’s “cliental governments”، Foran’s “oriental despotism”. These approaches apply the following concepts in their study of governments in Iran: clientalistic nature of Iranian governments، dependence on west، instrumental approach of the west toward Iran ignoring political forces، rivalry of political forces، classless society، the crisis of identity and consideration of Iran as an Island.
