Abstract

Purpose: Democratization is a process which is construed as a inevitable way to reach development, to redistribute income among citizens. The hypothesis of research was the relationship between intergroup inequality and democratization.
Method: we tried to address the process of democratization in two contries, Iran and Saudi Arabia, based on deferent statistics and analyses, with a descriptive- analytic appraoch.
Findings: first of all, we found the political system type of the two countries was not democracy. In addition, democratic movements had an up and down trend in Iran while was not appeared these movements in Saudi Arabia. Another finding was that, based on diferent statistics and researches, there was an intergroup inequality in Iran.
Conclusion: It can be argued that, based on Acemoglu and Rabinson`s economic theory, democratic movements in Iran is a response to socio-economic inequalities in the scale of society. In comparison, in spite of a monarchic system governing the Saudi Arabia country, and based upon economic growth and welfare, and to some extend distributing fairly wealth among the country`s citizens, there were not democratic and radical movements.
