Abstract:
Social movement is a fundamental argument in theories of revolution, and because of this importance, various theories have sought to explain it. One of the most important theories is the theory of relative deprivation. The Siahjamgan uprising sought the support of lower-income groups and relied on them in some of their slogans to raise the level of the value expectations of those social classes, while with the rise of the Abbasids to the caliphate, the level of value ability of the people did not change much. They suffered from frustration and relative deprivation. This situation led to revolt against the Abbasid caliphate, of which Babak Khorramdin's revolt was the most lasting one. The present article tries to investigate the formation and causes of this movement by using the method of historical analysis and sociology in the light of the theory of relative deprivation. The achievement of the article shows that the caliphs and agents of Bani Abbas challenged economic, religious and participatory values and caused relative deprivation, which led to an increase in the participation of social classes to Babak Khorramdin movement.
Machine summary:
Sociological Explanation of the Causes of Social Classes Joining the Babak Khorramdin Rebellion against the Abbasids (with emphasis on Robert Gurr's Relative Deprivation Theory) 1 2 Mohammad Azagh PhD in Post-Islamic Iranian History, University of Isfahan, Isfahan, Iran Fereydoon Elhyari Professor of the Department of History, University of Isfahan, Isfahan, Iran Ali Akbar Kajbaf Professor of the Department of History, University of Isfahan, Isfahan, Iran Abstract Social movements are fundamental topics in revolution theories that, due to this importance, various theories have attempted to explain.
The findings of the article show that the Abbasid caliphs and officials caused relative deprivation by challenging economic, religious, and participatory values, which led to an increase in the level of participation of social classes and an increase in the scale of the Babak Khorramdin movement.
The second hypothesis is that the pattern of relative deprivation resulting from high aspirations in creating social class dissatisfaction with the Abbasids and their joining of the Babak Khorramdin movement played a significant role.
However, it can be said that despite historical and sometimes scattered information regarding class dissatisfaction during the Abbasid period and their joining leaders such as Babak Khorramdin, there is no independent research that has investigated the causes of social class dissatisfaction in the Babak Khorramdin movement based on the relative deprivation theory.
124 This long period indicates the intensity of dissatisfaction and relative deprivation of social classes during the time of the uprising, in the era of the Abbasid Caliphate.
