Abstract
As Iran's most homogeneous socio-professional group, the Bazar has played an important role in the continuing violence in that country. Prior to the Islamic revolution, the Bazar reacted to systematical peripheralization by state violence, assassinations, and terrorist actions. After the Islamic revolution it became an influential partner and ally of the state. This, however, did not diminish Bazari violence, which has now become an integral part of state violence in Iran. This study analyzes the Bazar through a behaviorist thesis, which postulates relations of causality between relative deprivation and aggression. A series of new explanations is also introduced to clarify the behavior of the Bazar when it was no longer deprived, but still remained aggressive.
