چکیده:
The present writing aims to open a way to historical legality in the process of power transfer by answering the question: "Why did the Qajar government collapse and the first Pahlavi come to power?" The author, in response to the aforementioned question, examines the following hypotheses: 1. The pressure of a set of internal and external factors made the Qajar government desperate in maintaining power; 2. The simultaneity of internal and external events was effective in Reza Khan's attainment of power; 3. The British were among the most effective external factors in the fall of the Qajars and the emergence of the Pahlavis; 4. Reza Khan's personality components had a significant impact on his rise to power.
خلاصه ماشینی:
In the many consultations that took place between high-ranking officials and the British, considering the critical conditions at the end of the Qajar rule ـ which the idea of a coup had even reached the minds of non-military personnel ـ by channeling internal events, Reza Khan, the commander of the Hamadan brigade, rose to the rank of Sardar Sepah through the coup of February 22, 1921 (3 Esfand 1299).
Following the British failure to impose the 1919 Agreement, a mass of telegrams was exchanged between Tehran and the British Foreign Office regarding the strengthening of a strong central government in Iran and subsequently supporting Reza Shah.
41 One manifestation of Ahmad Shah's incapacity was that he undertook a long political absence from the scene of Iranian events, and this very matter paved the way for the transfer of power from the Qajars to the Pahlavis, and gradually "the number of Qajar supporters decreased and the wise men of the country turned their attention to the Sardar Sepah (Commander-in-Chief)".
Now, did you see, Mr. Seyyed Yaqub, that this did not mean accompanying the Qajars?"59 In his attempt to reach the pyramid of power, Reza Khan benefited at least from the deep assistance of three institutions: parties, the press, and Parliament, as well as the British government as a powerful foreign force.
