Abstract: The oldest document obtained regarding the arrival of Marxist thoughts to Iran is the one which in was published in written form in Akhtar Newspaper in Istanbul (March 1906) and also it was published by Iran Newspaper. The publication of these thoughts later continued by the publication of multiple articles about socialism thoughts in the famous newspaper "Iran-e-Now) which was the official publication of the Democratic Party of Iran. However, new socialist thoughtssince one or two decades before the Constitutional Movementgradually entered thoughts, history and literature of Iran and influenced some of the modernist intellectuals such as Mirza Agha Khan Kermani, Talebov, Akhundzadeh and other scholars of the realm of politics. These thoughts caused that in the field of historiography there would be formed a movement and Iranian writers, influenced by Marx's thoughts, create some works in the field of historiography whose dominant forms were society and economy. By exploiting Marx's theories in two axes, Feudal mode of production and Asiatic mode of production of Iranian society and history are investigated and analyzed sociologically.
