Abstract

Ali-Reza Khan Garrūsi was born in Bijar of Garrūs city in 1260 (AH). At the age of 15, he joined the government profession and about 54 years, he served in different military and government positions. When he was 18 years old he came to power of Garrūsi rule, but due to his lack of adequate experience, he disposed his position and thereafter, he started his position in military profession. From 1300 to 1329 (AH), he was frequently appointed ruler of Garrūs and during those period of times, he attempted seriously to promote Garrūs status, but in what fields he attempted and to what extent his efforts were effective are the considerable issues the current study is dealing with.
Despite the fact that Ali-Reza Khan was a tyranny, with the beginning of the constitutionalism and due to the time political necessities, he changed into a constitutionalist, but in 1329 (AH) he unexpectedly changed his mind and became against constitutionalism and constitutionalists as well and joined to Salar al-Dowleh Qajar who had revolted against the Constitutional Revolution to suppress it. He, by performing this doubtful act, made the public confused about his thoughts and behavior as well.
The present paper, based on the reliable documents and resources, intends to study Ali-Reza Khan’s personality as an influential figure in both great national and regional events of the Qajar period, on or after the constitutionalism.
