Abstract

The success of Iran's Constitutional Movement in 1906 resulted in nation-wide parliamentary elections and the creation of the country's first ever legislative chamber, which was originally called majles-e dār al-šowrā-ye melī (the National Consultative Assembly). Among the six laws ratified by this Majlis some 95 years ago, three have been singled out by the author for a close examination. These are: a) the law for the formation of provincial and city councils, b) the law for the creation of municipalities, and c) the law for the division of the country into provinces and townships and directives for local governors. The author is interested in tracing the evolution of administrative and judicial terminology in Iran, and it is the administrative terms embedded in these bills that especially catch his attention, and he lists them, from baladīyye (now šahrdārī =municipality) to nazmīyye (subsequently replaced by šahrbānī = the police). The author also examines these texts for their stylistic characteristics, and finds the language considerably more precise than the fuzzy language used by government scribes in the decades preceding the Constitutional Movement. The author also finds some foreign loan-words in these texts, which he thinks indicate those early legislators may well have had an eye on European models.
