Only in the backward society man accepts his natural environment as given. The Iranian Shiite Mullah wants us to believe that the Persian state and laws are divinely sanctioned; because Iran’s law is based on the Shiite religion doctrine. Any attempt to change permanent order of society is blasphemy and impossible to change by the will of people. Change is inconceivable where society is governed by religious extremist.
Iran is faced with internal political instability and disorder. Political instability in Iran derives from social changes, the rapid ethnics’ mobilisation and failure of Persian elites and rigid Shiite clergy to recognise their internal political failure and external challenges.
Urbanisation, social, economic, industrialisation and increase in literacy coupled with ethnic awakening and state’s backward institutions multiplied political demands, these changes and demands undermine the backward sources of state authorities and Shiite political institutions.
For Baluch in the western Baluchistan law is an external prescription over which he has no control. A Baluch discovers law but he does not make law. The Baluch cannot make supplementary amendment to unchanging basic Shiite law to apply it to moral, economic, cultural environment in which he live. The government govern Iran by so called the Shiite divine law and the government does not allow fundamental changes in society.
Contrary to the Persian the Baluch in the western Baluchistan have developed a sense of their capability that they can understand nature and society; they can control nature as well as society by their rational action to change social and environments. The Baluch in the western Baluchistan reject Persian restrain.
The ethnic politics will complicate the Iran’s problems by creating new bases for political association and new institutions combining legitimacy and effectiveness within their ethnic realm.
