| Reza Shah's era may be considered a turning point in the situation of the Iranian Jews. With the advent of Reza Shah, the social life of the Jews changed. After the victory of the constitution, according to the principle of equality enshrined in the constitution, all Iranians, regardless of their religion, were equal before the law, and this was an important issue in bringing about change in the layers of Iranian society, especially minorities. With a descriptive-analytical method and based on documents, the present study seeks to answer the question that what effect did Reza Shah's reforms and actions have on the social, economic and cultural situation of the Jews? The result of this study shows that Reza Shah's actions had positive and negative consequences in the process of modernization for the Jews. Reza Shah's actions made it possible to move the classes of the Jewish community from the urban lower to the middle class. During this period, with relative freedom, the economic, social and cultural situation of the Jews changed. |
