چکیده:
Luti-giri, as a decaying legacy of 'ayyari and chivalry, gained importance and status in the Qajar period, and Lutians played an important and fundamental role in the social and political life of this era. This group had a significant share in the disturbances of the Constitutional period. Furthermore, in the social sphere and especially in connection with urban unrest and thefts, they were a determining and effective factor. The unstable political and social situation of the Qajar and Nasserite periods, the relationship of Lutians with power centers, their influence and power in neighborhoods, group cohesion, and also the personality traits of Lutians such as courage and recklessness, intensified their criminal activities. In the present article, while examining the contexts and backgrounds influencing the increase and intensification of Lutian's destabilizing activities in the Nasserite period, the impact of these actions and activities on creating urban unrest, as well as the types and methods of these actions, are investigated.

Lutians and Urban Unrest in the Nasserian Era Dariush Rahmani 1, Mohsen Masumi 2, Hossein Bayatloo 3 (Article Received: 2017/09/27, Final Acceptance: 2017/10/15) Abstract Luti-giri, as a declining legacy of Ayari and Javānmardi, gained importance and status in the Qajar period, and Lutians played a significant and fundamental role in the social and political life of this era.
The unstable political and social situation of the Qajar and Nasserian periods, the relationship between Lutians and power centers, their influence and power in neighborhoods, group cohesion, and also the personality traits of Lutians, including boldness and fearlessness, intensified their criminal activities.
The joining of these ruffians to the Luti group was also due to the fact that, using their powerful social base in the neighborhoods and also the fear and terror of the people from the Lutians, they could easily engage in activities.
Foreign travel writers and Iranian sources of the Nasserian era (including documents, travelogues, and historical books) have presented consistent information about the negative role of the Lutians in society (for examples of travelogue reports, see: Brougsh, In the Land of the Sun, 90; Ibid.
In any case, the Lutians, as one of the important social groups in the Nasserian era, had both positive and negative roles in the society of this period, but it seems that their role in insecurity, theft, and turmoil was greater.
During the Qajar period, the Lutis used their power and influence in cities and neighborhoods to steal from all classes and social groups.
