Abstract

Security is considered an important and historical issue in Iranian society because of its geographical location, political structure and social characteristics. Under the influence of various internal and external factors, the order and security of Kerman state was in a critical and fragile state during the historical period of World War I until the rise of the Pahlavi dynasty. Considering the variety of factors influencing the security and insecurity of this state, this study aimed to use the historical analysis method to find an answer to the following questions, "What were the main factors affecting the order and security of Kerman state during the historical period of World War I until the rise of the Pahlavi dynasty?", and "How was Kerman state in terms of public order and security during that period?" Examining the historical sources and analyzing the texts, we found that the order and security of Kerman state was a function of the order and security of the country during that period. However, some specific characteristics of this state, such as the geographical location, the influence of the presence and activity of the military and political forces of the countries involved in the world war, the extremely undermined power of the central and state governments, and the inefficiency of institutions arising from constitutional governments gave rise to critical conditions for the order and security of the state. These conditions continued until the rise of the strong and authoritarian order of Pahlavi government.
