Question

Why weren’t the Shah’s policies well received by some of the Iranian people?

Answer 1

Answer:

Because Iraqis believed that Shah's policies departed from the concepts advocated by Islam and was an attempt to move closer to Western concepts.

Explanation:

The last Shah of Iran developed revolutionary policies that deeply disintegrated Iranians and started a series of conflicts known as the "white revolution".

These policies included economic and social reforms, which according to the last Shah, would lead Iran to become a strong world power. These reforms included the adoption of various Western policies in all political, economic and social sectors in the country. Among the changes we can mention the adoption of western clothes by men, the abandonment of the use of the veil by women, the permission for men and women to be together in any situation, the release of elements of American culture such as films and music, among other factors .

The Iranian population concluded that these policies violated the main concepts defended by Islam, in addition to being an attempt to bring the country closer to Western libertinism. As a result, most of the population was unhappy with the policies established by the Shah.
