To this end, two five - year periods after the Islamic Revolution in Iran were selected, one between ( ) and the other between ( ). The developments and transitions which occurred in the social conditions of Iran in these two periods such as revolution, war, etc. and which affected women status, for example their employment, education, etc., were studied. The research involved books on the matter of social sciences which have been listed in the annual report of publication (Karnameh Nashr.) So the corpus included books translated in sociology, society and culture, social communication and groups, politics and international relations, economics, etc. This categorization was also based on reports of publication (Karnemah Nashr.) The collected data could be classified in two parts: 1) the information about the social conditions of Iran in the two periods ( and ) 2) The list of books in social science translated by translatresses in the two periods The data were analyzed to find a link between social conditions and translated books by translatresses in the said course and periods. Though this research was meant to find a relationship, but it could be regarded as a research on the history of translation, too. 4
