Abstract

The relations between the government and the urban society of Iran were not the same in different periods, and how the rulers acted, such as establishing order and security in the city, establishing justice in the society, dealing with the oppression of government officials, providing social and civil services, and attracting the support of tribes and groups at the same time. urban areas played an important role in their relationship with the people and the level of satisfaction of the society as well as the continuation or fall of a government. The main issue of the current research is how the Zandiyeh government is related to the urban society of Shiraz and its effect on the establishment of the Qajar government. The answer to this question is found by descriptive and analytical methods and relying on library information. Based on the findings of the research, the relationship between the government and the people of Shiraz can be divided into two general categories: authoritarian (strong) governments and non-authoritarian (weak) governments. Meanwhile, authoritarian governments can be divided into two groups: efficient governments (with the general characteristics of benevolent actions of the ruler aimed at the public interest and as a result the relative satisfaction of the people) and inefficient governments (with the characteristics of individual and private self-interest of the rulers) and as a result of people's dissatisfaction) categorized. The relationship between the kings of Zandiyeh and the people of Shiraz can be placed in one of the mentioned categories, and this affected on the fall of the Zandiyeh government and the rise of the Qajar government.
