Résumé anglais Abdolhossein Nikgohar : Some Observations about Iranian Land Reform. The Incorporated Land Company is an Iranian socioeconomic institution set up during the 1962 land reform. Its most important aspect concerns putting land in common and distributing shares of stock to peasants. As a means for reorganizing rural life, the ILCs aim at multiple objectives: social integration, political control, rational land organization, and the turning of agricultural infrastructures into profitable operations. As in the case of any imposed change, the creation of an ILC meets up with many difficulties whose origins are found not in its objectives but rather in the practical measures which accompany implementation. Taking the form of a participatory process, this reform consists in purely and simply applying measures decided by the central power; in spite of its apparent consultative form, the administration's indifference to the local population's expectations lets a conflict of interest, which partly paralyzes the reform's evolution and limits its scope, reappear during each phase of change.
