The diversity of environments and geomorphological landscapes and the impact of natural environments on many human behaviors, from temperament to architecture, is not a new issue, but along with this diversity, we also witness important differences in community life patterns in Iran, such that urban, rural, nomadic, nomadic, solitary, and forest-dwelling patterns are simultaneously seen in these landscapes. A question that has always been raised by geographers is whether diverse community life patterns are in a generic relationship with diverse geomorphic landscapes. Has the diversity of organization and the structure of the distribution of power, management, resources, technology, and production in diverse community life patterns in Iran been formed in relation to geomorphic phenomena and landscapes? or, as sociologists believe, is it the result of the history of social changes? Another important question is whether the design of such connections does not confirm the geographical constellation. This thesis is an attempt to address the issue that the relationship between life patterns in Iran and natural landscapes is raised from the perspective of epistemology, and environmental and geographical determinism does not find relevance in geographical geography. Because the concept of geographical determinism is the result of the type of view that is taken on issues, and here, by relying on cognitive sciences, an attempt has been made to explain the role of geomorphic landscapes and events in the natural history of Iran in the collective life patterns of Iranians.
The studies in this dissertation, based on a meta-analysis of the works of six Iranian geographers who have presented obvious works in the field of geography, are focused on the question of how the diversity of Iranʹs geographical landscapes is related to diverse social organizations, or collective life patterns. The results of this dissertation show that the Quaternary lakes and the bifurcation of plain rivers are the basis of urban civilization in Iran, the ice-water balance line, mountain landslides and the concave slopes of plain rivers are the basis for the creation of rural civilization in Iran, and the identity of each social organization is affected by its spatial identity.
