Works and thoughts of Houshang Pourkarim

In this article, we have tried to read the works of Houshang Pourkarim as one of the pioneers of anthropological research in Iran and through the background of the development of his thoughts, ideas and basic activities, detailed chronology of his influential works and ideas, the importance of reading his thoughts at the time. Explain the present. Pourkarim's research in the field of anthropology and his detailed research of Iranian villages, ethnicities, traditions, and popular culture are significant in that development-oriented and centrist economic policies in Iran, along with discriminatory structures and policies, have led to the neglect of the lives of most Iranians. The title is marginalized. Purkarim's legacy has been thinking about these forgotten groups and paying attention to their lives, traditions, art and beliefs. This issue is still one of the most important needs of humanities and social sciences research in Iran and in this article, we have tried to address it.
