British Intelligence on Persia (Iran) 1900-1949
Secret and confidential British intelligence and policy files
The dominant theme of the collection is the position of Persia between two powerful
neighbours, Russia in the north and the British Government of India in the east. British
involvement in Persia dated back to the East India Company’s first trading contacts of the
early seventeenth century. But by the late nineteenth century, when the country’s
economic life was largely in the hands of Russian and British concessionaires, it seemed
as if Persia might even become a Russian protectorate. Instead it became the playground
of both interests for almost half a century, during which the British, with their immensely
valuable oil concessions in the south, emerged as the dominant (though hardly ever
welcome) foreign partner.
British India and London’s strategic planning and policy formulation required
information – intelligence on internal politics, tribal groupings, rivalries, personalities,
resources, communications and the terrain – to provide ‘background’ for political
relations and practical ‘know-how’ for military operations and clandestine activities.
Information gathering devolved in the first instance upon British diplomatic
representatives in Persia. There were four players on the British side – the Foreign Office
and War Office in London, the Government of India Foreign Department, and the Indian
Army General Staff. Personnel manning posts in Persia were drawn from the Londonbased Diplomatic and Consular Services and the British Army, or from the Indian Civil
Service, the Indian Political Service and the Indian Army.
Reflecting the perceived importance of Russian designs and of British strategic
interests, the country was exceptionally well covered. In addition to a permanent British
legation at Tehran from the 1850s (only raised to embassy status in 1944), there were
Consuls-General at Bushire from 1878, Isfahan from 1891 and Meshed from 1889, and at
varying dates Consuls in Ahwaz, Kerman, Kermanshah, Khorramshahr, Resht, Seistan
and Shiraz. Each post maintained Special Secret Service funds.
The present edition from IDC Publishers brings together the product of all this activity
– ranging through British reporting, planning and thinking on the Persian revolution of
1905-09, the Anglo-Russian agreement of 1907 which divided the country into informal
spheres of influence, 1st World War intervention, the Communist threat, the reign of Riza
Shah, 2nd World War intervention and the countering of German influence, and the
succession of Muhammad Riza.
Political Intelligence
The two central series are the Government of India Foreign Department Printed
Correspondence and the Foreign Office annual political reports 1910-1948. The first,
some 5,000 pages in 44 parts, prints all incoming and outgoing papers relating to Persia
between 1916 and 1940; the pagination is frequently erratic, but within each ‘part’ the
documents are arranged in a continuously numbered sequence. There are also long runs
of Consular diaries/summaries from the various posts, printed up either by the Foreign
Office or the Government of India (though typescript became the norm from around
1933/34). The diaries have numbered sequences for each year or issue dates within the
year, varying from monthly to weekly.
Transmission was extremely cumbersome. Predominantly Foreign Office posts (eg.
Tehran, Kermanshah, Khorramshahr, Resht, Shiraz) made their reports to the FO in
London, from where copies were sent to the India Office. Government of India posts (eg.
Ahwaz, Kerman, Meshed, Seistan) reported to Delhi, from where copies were sent to the
India Office in London and from there forwarded to the Foreign Office.
Military Intelligence
A small Intelligence Branch was formed within the Quarter Master General’s
Department at Army Headquarters, India, in 1878. The wide-ranging reforms of the
Army in India Committee of 1912-13 established an Intelligence Section (M.O.3) within
the Military Operations Directorate of the General Staff, divided into four geographical
sub-sections (one of them responsible for Persia) and a fifth devoted to ‘special work of a
confidential nature.’
The General Staff, India, was responsible for a stream of gazetteers, route books,
military reports and who’s who compilations. Sources were the military attachés at the
diplomatic posts and military officers in the field (particularly during the two World
Wars), their Persian and other contacts, and clandestinely employed local agents. The
military attachés also produced regular intelligence summaries. The Meshed consulate
was an especially important listening post for developments across the borders in Russian
Central Asia and Afghanistan. In 1913 the Foreign Office laid down that the collection
of military intelligence was not part of the duty of British consulates, so that the task
devolved almost entirely upon the General Staff, India, with some financial input from
the War Office.
The various volumes of gazetteers, route books, military reports and who’s who
compilations have a roughly similar geographical coverage:
Vol 1
North-east (Khorasan, Kain, Seistan)
Vol.2
North & Central (incl Azerbaijan, Kurdistan, Kermanshah, Tehran)
Vol.3
South-west (Luristan, Bakhtiari, Isfahan, Arabistan, Khuzistan,
Kughalu)
Vol.4/1 South (Yazd, Fars, Laristan, Gulf Ports)
Vol.4/2 South-east (Kerman, Persian Baluchistan)
All the works were classifed Secret, Confidential or For Oficial Use Only, and were
subject to strict rules of custody. It was also ordered that when a new edition of a
particular work appeared all previous editions had to be destroyed. As a result these
works survive in very few locations. The collection in the India Office Records at the
British Library, now made available by IDC Publishers, is unique in its breadth and
accessibility.
Provenance and historical background
The political reports, diaries and summaries produced in the diplomatic posts (including
the military attaché materials) were received in the Political & Secret Department registry
at the India Office and were given reference numbers within its annual file sequences.
They were eventually brought together as ‘subject’ files up to 1931 (L/P&S/10) and as
files within ‘external subject collection 28 – Persia’ (L/P&S/12) thereafter. The General
Staff, India, secret and confidential works are located in two internal ‘reference libraries’
which were kept within the Military Department (L/MIL/17) and the Political & Secret
Department (L/P&S/20) at the India Office. Items were received from India upon
publication and were kept/disposed of according to the custody rules laid down by the
originator.
All the India Office departments were subsumed within the Commonwealth Relations
Office (subsequently the Foreign & Commonwealth Office) after Independence in 1947.
In 1982 the Foreign & Commonwealth Office transferred the administration of the India
Office Library & Records to the British Library, where it now forms one part of the
Library’s Asia, Pacific and Africa Collections (specifically, the former Oriental & India
Office Collections (OIOC)).
