Summary: | When Iran adopted the French judicial model in 1911, justice, a new state institution, became secular and undermined religious courts and traditional arbitrary justice systems. Provinces and villages suffered from the institutionalization of state justice which structures were now unfamiliar and distant, inducing long and costly trials due to the implementation of heavy procedures. In the beginning of the sixties (1963) alternative justice structures, named Equity Houses, were put in place in villages and became quite popular. They were eliminated by the 1979 judicial reform brought by the revolution and replaced recently by the Council for the Resolution of Conflicts. |
