  The aim of the study is to explore the application possibility “reflexive traditionalism” concept with the empirical study of the travel book of Reza Qoli Mirza. The research method is bibliographic and has been carried out with the help of historical documents. “Reflexive Traditionalism” is an expression of the reaction of tradition to modernity. Fathali Shah, the second Shah of the Qajars (1796-1925), died in October 1834. After his death his sons argued for the succession. One who was entitled to the throne was his son Hosyen Ali Mirza, governor of Fars. He did not submit to the Crown Prince Mohammed Shah, the son of Abbas Mirzas and the grandson of Fathali Shah, and was crowned in Shiraz as “Ali Shah”. Mohammed Shah sent his army to Shiraz, defeated, sent to Tehran, and died in June 1835 in Tehran when he was 47 years old. His sons Reza Quli Mirza, Taymur Mirza and Najaf Qoli Mirza fled and left Iran in April 1835 and traveled to England via Iraq, Syria and Lebanon. They stayed in England for almost a year, on September 3, 1836, and arrived in Baghdad on April 11, 1837, through France, Belgium, Bavaria, Prussia, Austria, and the Ottoman Empire. Reza Qoli Mirza summarized the events of this journey as a travel book. The travel book Reza Qoli Mirza is examined with emphasis on the following aspects: 1) England from his point of view; 2) The English from the perspective of Reza Qoli Mirza; 3) About his person.

  The purpose of this article is to study the history of structure Transformation of Land ownership in Iran. This study was conducted in the context of the new historical sociology, in particular in relation to the works of Charls Tilly and Micheal Mann, on the basis of which the subject is carried out using documentary and bibliographic methods. Iran's economy at the turn of the twentieth century was a self-coeffient agricultural economy. The basis of this economic structure was the relationship of land acquisition as land ownership, which was justified in terms of Islamic principles and the prevailing custom of society. On this basis, the public attitude to property was negative, so that the property was not socially accepted and respected. It was the sphere of intervention of powerful people and groups. Even the “new middle class” that emerged mainly in the 20th century, did not support property rights, but by advocating a quasi-socialist economy, communal property, and cooperative economics, ultimately represented the same economic approaches to ownership that was traditionally held. The result of this research is that traditional economic and property relations are justified, in the sense that they are reinterpreted in the context of new categories such as “cooperative”, “equality”, “justice”.
