Abstract

Robbery, as the most common and widespread social maladjustment, not only had a clear negative impact on social security, but also involved all parts of society. In other words, there were burglars in almost all segments of the community, and they were committing acts of robbery with different motives and intentions. In the Naserian period, people of various classes of society were involved in this social anomaly. Of these, one can mention to looties, soldiers, and menservants, about whom there are numerous reports of thievery acts. In this research, the author intends to study the robbery of the manservants and its underlying factors. Based on this, the paper will try to answer two questions: First, what factors have been the cause of the robbery of the manservants during the Naserid period? Secondly, what methods and means of stealing did they use? Findings of the research indicate that the factor of migration and social inequality and low income, as well as the notion that servants considered theft as a certain right, can be considered as the underlying factors behind their robberies.
