چکیده:
Creating precious architectural and artworks is an important socio-cultural act. Consequently, the act of preserving those resources could be considered a socio-cultural action. In general, preserving historic resources is studied as a humanist and modern act; however, historically, and particularly in the pre-modern era, there are instances of the same socio-cultural actions, which, if not entirely, at least in some parts, ties to the modern approaches of preservation.Methodology: This paper, in a descriptive-analytical method and with a concentration on social history, examines some of the existing examples and historical records of preservation actions. The main question of this research is how the preservation of historic resources as a socio-cultural action could be analyzed through social history. This question is important because the preservation of historic resources is not only a modern approach but a social and cultural response, which in many cases is for political and religious purposes. Thus, it could enlighten some parts of the cultural and social life of the people in pre-modern Iran.Conclusion: while it confirms the continuousness of society’s attention to historic resources over time for several reasons, including value, national and religious interest, cultural and social beliefs, and political motivations, it also creates public awareness and, subsequently, social advocacy for the conservation and preservation of historic resources, or in some cases, the opposite, destruction of cultural and historical resources for the same reasons.

An Analytical Introduction to the Protection and Restoration of Historical Buildings From the Perspective of Social History Mohsen Keyhanpour * 1 Abstract Problem Statement: The creation of valuable artistic and architectural works is considered an important part of cultural-social actions in any society.
Generally, the matter of protection and restoration of historical monuments and buildings is critiqued and examined within a humanistic and modern framework; however, examples of such cultural-social actions can be found in the context of history and the pre-modern era, which, from the perspective of purpose, if not entirely, align with this approach in major aspects.
1. Introduction Generally, the concepts of Preservation, Restoration & Conservation in historical architectural works, as part of cultural heritage and part of important human achievements, have been considered related to the definition and understanding of the human past through fundamental changes in the field of philosophy within the context of human thought and life, and have been regarded as direct results of the modern and Humanistic view after the Renaissance.
This process, in its own path, has certainly been in conflict and interaction with other important and influential issues, including political sovereignty, economy, and religious and sectarian thoughts, which, in its own place, especially in the socio-cultural arena of a territory such as Iran—where even today, despite the enrichment of the concept of protection and restoration of historical monuments and buildings, and precious national and international experiences in this field, serious challenges still exist in some cases from a governmental and administrative perspective—is a matter worthy of reflection in its investigation and research.
