MPRA Paper from University Library of Munich, Germany

Abstract: After the establishment of the constitutional system, the payment of salaries became a critical issue for the government. An examination of Ministry of Finance documents shows that the government was unable to pay salaries in a timely and complete manner due to financial bankruptcy, financial specialists were hired from the West. The most important policy pursued for hiring foreign advisors, they were chosen from governments other than Russia and Britain. advisers from Belgium, France, and the United States were hired by the Iranian government to regulate Iran's crisis-ridden financial system. , the traditional structure governing them changed completely. Of these three axes, the pay system was of particular importance, because since the time of Muzaffar al-Din Shah, the inability to pay had caused a crisis that was rapidly increasing in severity. This article seeks to answer the question of how the treasury advisers used to solve the issue of payroll, and finally, to what extent they were able to achieve their goals and those of the constitutional government, which was to organize the crisis-paying payroll system. The findings of this study show that in order to solve the issue of payment of salaries, these advisors tried to solve the issue of payments by prioritizing the payment of current salaries and reducing some salaries, by implementing the policy of increasing revenues and reducing government expenditures. Governors and disputes with finance ministers over powers prevented them from carrying out their actions.
