They believe that the main reasons for this development in Qajar dynasty are sustainment of the Shi’ite religious authority from Safavid dynasty on and establishment of temporary as well as permanent Tekies (places for religious ceremonies) such as the Tekie-ye-Dolat. However, some researchers suggest the efficacy of the country’s socio-historical conditions in this type of drama. Although such viewpoints have been restricted to some cases, they confirm the effectiveness of these conditions on formation of this kind of traditional-ceremonial drams.

The aim of this study is to determine the socio-historical characteristics of the Nassery Era and to explain the sociological reasons for the considerable development of the Ta’zieh in this period of time.
