This social transformation and population shift began in 1941; the factories that were built spurred these changes. Before this, people were farmers, and the concept of working as a laborer was not common, nor were laborers readily available. During Reza Shah&#8217;s time, villagers were forcibly taken for labor; the villagers were farmers, and any work other than that was considered forced labor. For example, for the construction of the Chalus Road, forced laborers were hired; they would take people with horses, mules, camels, and whatever they had there, and make them work for a month of forced labor; of course, after a month, they had to be paid to be released. It seems they didn&#8217;t take donkeys, only working with horses, camels, and mules; my mother used to say we only had a donkey, our mules had died earlier; she said, &#8220;One night I dreamt that an officer came to take the mules; I hid those animals somewhere; the officer was searching through the village and&#8230;; in the midst of this, I woke up and thanked God that our mules were already dead!&#8221;\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-150a001 e-grid e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"150a001\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8a93dca e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"8a93dca\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-084bf10 elementor-post-navigation-borders-yes ahura-dark-mode-filter-texts-no elementor-widget elementor-widget-post-navigation\" data-id=\"084bf10\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"post-navigation.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<link rel=\"stylesheet\" href=\"https:\/\/dangofang.org\/wp-content\/plugins\/elementor-pro\/assets\/css\/widget-theme-elements-rtl.min.css\">\t\t<div class=\"elementor-post-navigation\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-post-navigation__prev elementor-post-navigation__link\">\n\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/dangofang.org\/en\/if-reza-shah\/\" rel=\"prev\"><span class=\"post-navigation__arrow-wrapper post-navigation__arrow-prev\"><i class=\"fa fa-angle-left\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><span class=\"elementor-screen-only\">Prev<\/span><\/span><span class=\"elementor-post-navigation__link__prev\"><span class=\"post-navigation__prev--label\">prevoius story<\/span><span class=\"post-navigation__prev--title\">If Reza Shah&#8230;<\/span><\/span><\/a>\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-post-navigation__separator-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-post-navigation__separator\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-post-navigation__next elementor-post-navigation__link\">\n\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/dangofang.org\/en\/five-tomans-a-day-is-enough\/\" rel=\"next\"><span class=\"elementor-post-navigation__link__next\"><span class=\"post-navigation__next--label\">next story<\/span><span class=\"post-navigation__next--title\">Five tomans a day is enough!<\/span><\/span><span class=\"post-navigation__arrow-wrapper post-navigation__arrow-next\"><i class=\"fa fa-angle-right\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><span class=\"elementor-screen-only\">Next<\/span><\/span><\/a>\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Iranian society in the 1940s and 1950s was constantly evolving; people sometimes moved from the countryside to the city and sometimes from the city to the countryside.
