Abstract: (106 Views) |
The main purpose of this research is how the merchants played a role in Iran's constitutional revolution in order to achieve extra-capital, until the formation of the second parliament. The research method in this research is historical and used to collect information from first-hand sources such as memories and chronicles and second-hand historical sources. Based on the findings of the research, merchants in the constitutional revolution, played a revolutionary role, using their economic-social capitals, and were able to play a major role in the victory of the constitutional revolution, achieving extra capital and forming the first parliament of the National Council. But merchants, after gaining extra capital and participating in the government arena (by winning about 40% of the seats in the first parliament), changed their role from revolutionary to conservative and reactionary, and the result was the closure of the first parliament by Mohammad Ali Shah. A passive role in the second constitution was the presence of 5% of merchants in the second parliament of the National Council and the loss of extra capital.
