        To understand properly the rural-urban relations in Iran is the manifestation to achieve the processes of change and development. The socio-economic performance of rural and urban settlements in the form of relationships within the framework of the theory of "rent capitalism" indicates the formation of inequalities between these two forms of different settlements. The present study, based on library and field studies, has a descriptive-analytical character and examines the production and supply of handwoven carpets in two dimensions, areal and transareal, with a focus on rural-urban relationships in the Songhar Area, including two cities and 211 rural settlements. The research’s results show the dominance of the “exploitative” nature of rural-urban relations in the overall process of manufacture and trade of carpets. Manuscript profile
