Abstract
The introduction puts forward a short history and chronology of Qajar Iran and a brief entry into the Western encroachment and the economic crisis. The author explores the overflow of consumer goods and how it has been utilized as a policy by Europe in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Second, the absence of research on women’s contribution and their critical engagement with the economic crisis has been in-sum explored. Eventually, the sources and research method and content of each chapter have been in short introduced.
