This study is examining the changes in religious values, attitudes and methods by measuring the degree of Autonomy and Authority in the religious affairs of the current generation and the early generations of the Islamic Revolution in 1979 in Iran. Research hypotheses that have been tested on the theoretical views related to autonomy and authority extracted using data collected in a survey method. The sample size using the Cochran formula was 392 people with accuracy of %/05 and confidence level of %95, from two age groups of 50 to 65 years old and 15to 30 years old citizens of Qom and Tehran cities in the year of 2017 using cluster sampling method and randomly selected. Required information was collected using a questionnaire and analyzed statistically. The results of the analysis indicate that there is a significant difference between the spectrum autonomy and religious authority in the two groups of studies that are somehow considered as the first and third generation of the Islamic Revolution. These analyses indicate that there is a significant difference in autonomy indexes in religious rituals, autonomy of religious commands, autonomy in religious flexibility, autonomy in ethics, autonomy in accepting religions, in the authority of tradition or rationality, and in obtaining information between the two groups of studies. This means that the early generation after the revolution has more religious authority in the religious affairs of religion, and the current generation is of lower authority and less autonomy in religious affairs.

Social capital comprises a set of relationships, networks, interactions, associations and organizations formed by shared norms and values which warm the human society and facilitate social interaction. Some media experts consider it as a means of spreading "social capital”. Accordingly, the objectives of this paper were: Investigation of the extent and impact of watching television and surfing on the internet on social capital and the dimensions of quality (trust and reciprocal dealing) and network structure (formal/informal, and the size and capacity of the network). The approach of the present paper is relational casual and the survey method was used among 391 residents of Tehran. The social capital variables was measured inspired by Stone's model after localization and the variable of media consumption via the amount of time spent on TV and the internet. Some of the findings of the study based on Pearson’s correlation coefficient indicated that the time spent on watching television or surfing on the internet has a positive and significant relationship with social capital. In casual study by regression test of the two variables, the time spent on surfing on the internet had the greatest impact.

In the age of communication, the digital divide has had different consequences in the field of culture, and the decline in women's fertility in the last two decades, which has led to the concern of responsible officials and managers, has also been affected by the cultural factors caused by the digital divide and other factors affecting fertility. In response to the question of how much the digital divide has impacted on the fertility of women living in Tehran, 600 of them were selected and surveyed in a systematic random sampling based on Lin's table. The findings of the study show a significant relationship between the digital divide and fertility and that some of the social components (ethnic origin, education and employment status of women) are related to female fertility. Finally, testing the research model using structural equations shows that social gap, digital divide and foreign language proficiency can account for 51% of the dependent variable, namely fertility behavior of married women residing in Tehran in 2018.

The media narrative of events is not an objective narrative, but its representation is in the discursive and ideological frameworks. This paper tries to find out how one of the most important events in the Middle East (dismissal of Morsi) is represented by media having different discursive frameworks (Channel 1 of IRIB and BBC Persian). Critical discourse analysis is used to evaluate this paper. The results indicate that BBC Persian television used a liberal democracy discourse within the framework of components such as legitimacy of majority, the rule of law and equality for the representation of this Egyptian event. In contrast, Channel 1 of IRIB applied components of Islamic Revolution discourse such as support for Islamists, support for resistance movement and conspiracy of western countries for the media construction of this Egyptian event. In addition, Channel 1 served other discourses, such as democracy and the will of the majority for the expression of its purposes.

Extremism has plagued many in recent years. And we have witnessed the violence and strife of extremist groups called Islam. The people of the Middle East experienced great pain and suffering from extremism threats from Afghanistan to North Africa, Europe and many other countries. Regardless of the fact that these conflicts in the region and the world are based on fundamentalism, in an attempt to replicate with the Islamic Jihad, it is attempted to promote Islamophobia, the divine religion of Rahmani Islam as a rough school, and the lack of a proper understanding of the theoretical notion The Islamic Jihad has led to a false and practical perception of the legitimacy of the actions of extremists and the use of violence against others. And while "there is no relation between extremism and Islamic Jihad," and jihad has been entrusted to the prophet Muhammad (PBUH) for the development and extension of religion. And the acts and acts of violence that are referred to as revival of the Islamic caliphate and the implementation of sharia as extreme neo-fundamentalism are not in Islamic thought.Accordingly, the present article aims to explain the concept of Islamic Jihad and its nature, the trend of extremism and violence in the form of religion, to answer the question: is the conflict and incompatibility of extremism and violence with the original concept of Islamic Jihad? The type of applied research is developmental and its method is library and documentary.

Pilgrimage is one of the oldest religious rites and rituals that is closely related to the family. Socialization in Islamic culture is accompanied by modeling and modeling of a small, warm and loving family community. Today, in a historic transformation, the family is losing its social function, and the reality is that it is not as capable and perhaps capable of coping with problems and dangers. One of the most effective options seems to be among the factors that help maintain the foundation and function of the family in the face of the waves that have invaded the center of this humane institution. One of the models of faithful family life is formed during the pilgrimage, which has shown itself better in the last few years, especially during the Arbaeen Hosseini days, with the family presence of the pilgrims and the hosts on the Arbaeen pilgrimage. Using the qualitative method of "phenomenology", the present article seeks to answer the question: "What effects can religious rituals and religious rites such as the Arbaeen Hosseini pilgrimage ritual have on the family life of religious people?" The findings of this study eventually lead to five effects: 1. The rationality of civilization, 2- The capacity for significant efficiency in the economic, political, social and cultural spheres, 3- The creation of dynamism and a life based on love, 4- Stabilization and strengthening Divine identity and 5- Coordination of different elements of the family; reaches and explains them..

The study is based on the assumption that the painting "Entry of Christ into Brussels" by "James Ensor" despite its title & theme of religious narration related to the holy book, unlike the orthodox Christian iconography, especially is a break or a kind of refusal. There is a revolution in the painting by which we translate it into a kind of modern icons. This research seeks to answer the question, despite the religious elements, whether we categorize it as a modern icon? The purpose of the research is to analyze the process of semananlysis according to kristeva`s ideas. The visual elements and their relations is required for highlighting the exchange of the semiotic and the symbolic? Types of Lines, colors, the degree of darkness/brightness or tonality, shapes, texture, and space will lead us to the threshold of semananalysis. The description of the visual components proceeds up to modal, representational & compositional functions. This focus leads to associative & successional and differential intertextual relationships. An outline of the relations governing the components leads to the levels of principles, that is, the implicit and explicit, cultural and social ones. The analysis of the visual characteristics and the relations between them will concentrate our attention to the exchange of the semiotic and the symbolic. The focus on the types of intertextual relationship will show "Entry of Christ into Brussels" does not follow the religious iconographical traditions. secondly, with regard to the aesthetic properties like forces of colors, artist leads the audience's mind to a deeper sociological interpretation. Ultimately, considering other artist`s artworks and studying para textual relationships all directly highlight the relationship between political issues associated with new governmentality and new branch of Christianity.

In this research, we analyze the cultural policies of the family. The results show that the Iranian family, like many other societies, is subject to significant changes. In recent years, the tendency to form a family has been reduced to a certain extent, and marriage is delayed until social, economic and social status is achieved. Evidence suggests divorce has changed from a denied phenomenon to a solution to the tension and conflict between couples. Extramarital marriages, especially in major cities, have increased marriage and increased divorce rates. The generation gap has spread and the conflicts of women's role are expanding. According to the statistics, the documents and the reality of society, the family has not shaped as cultural policy-makers desired and planned for it. This gap between politics and the situation in society has been analyzed in such a way that changing social conditions, globalization and cultural transformations, the spread of media and communications, and ... have influenced the family and due to the changing social context, this different factors have affected family structure.

Satan is a general term for an entity that, before human creation, has had a long history of worshiping the Lord. He was driven from God's temple by refusing to prostrate to Adam; and put his eternal enmity towards Bani Adam. Descriptions and interpretations about Satan are not limited to the celestial scriptures and include other written sources. The existence of illustration in some of these books has led to the formation of examples of Satan's image among them. In the old visual culture of Iran, Satan's images have been featured in some illustrated manuscripts. These images, which we know as painting works, represent the various images of Satan in accordance with the subject matter of the text. The present paper focuses on the recognition of the visual culture dominant in Iranian painting and its main purpose is examining the various narratives of the narrators of Satan and classifying them. The questions posed in the paper, respectively, describe the various visual narratives of the devil in painting, the various literary sources written for illustrating the images and the amount of text and image matching. By answering these questions, the image of the devils in the painting was categorized into various forms of the demons, angels, humans and hybrid being; images which are based on a wide variety of literary sources, and in addition to the effect of the text, have also benefited from the artistic taste of painters.

environment by some researchers in different fields such as poster, urban painting, etc. This psychological pattern can also be found in the context of the Islamic layout, especially the Qur'anic manuscripts. Gestalt theory is a collection of visual principles and rules, one of which is called the "shape and field" law. The Qur'anic version of the Qajar period, registered in the 3089, due to the richness of its designs and the quality of its work of illumination, is very important and appropriate for further studies.This research studies how to understand and recognize the visual patterns in the elements of Quranic Illumination using the concept of shape and background of Gestalt's laws. This research has been conducted in a descriptive-analytical way to answer this fundamental question: What is the basis and structure of the decorating of the coronation of the Quran according to the rules that form the principle of the form and the field of the principles of the psychological theory of Gestalt? The analysis of the elements used in the study of this exquisite Qur'an and the study of visual structure and its elements, based on the law of the form and the field of gestalt, characterizes the strength and strength of its composition.

Metafilms are kind of films which their subject matters are the nature of cinema and film-making. Film-makers of this Sub-Genre have a critical view to the production of meaning and highlight the fictional and artificiality of the film. They confront the current illusion in the conventional and realistic films. Conflict between characters in cinematic works, as a principle, reflects the importance of study, regarding "self" and "the other" in these works. The relationship between "self" and "the other" has been characterized as the "subject" and the "object" in most part of the philosophy's history. In Sartre's viewpoint, human turns into an "object" in the "gaze" of "the other" and loses his freedom. Unlike him, Levinas thinks that assuming "the other" as an "object" is applying violence against "the other. By analyzing characters' relationship in Kiarostami's works, we can answer the question that how is the relationship between "self "and "the other" in his films and metafilms? In considering the films of “Where is the friend’s home”, “Taste of Cherry" and meta-films of "Close-up","The wind will carry us" and “Through the olive trees", descriptive-analytic with Critical discourse analysis of Fairclough were used. By doing so, we can represent structural differences of metafilms in “the other" reflectivity in the works of this director. The result of the study suggests that despite the same director, and the same social, political and cultural background of these works, due to the characteristics of self-reflectivity and self-criticism in kiarostami's metafilms, unlike his films, the relationship between "self" and "the other" is based on Levinas and the other-oriented. This is a sign of the reorganization of the discursive order of society in the relationship between "self" and the other.

In this study, which was based on a quantitative (descriptive-survey) method, we have tried to examine the extent/ measures of the cultural boundaries and crossing between different lifestyle groups in Tehran. The statistical population included all citizens of Tehran who were 16 years old and up. The sample size included 625 who were selected by cluster multistage method. A questionnaire tool was used to collect data. The Cronbach's alpha rate of the questionnaire exceeded from 93%. Based on the data and factor analysis method, five types of lifestyle were obtained: "unprofessional", "unfit", "devious", "religious", "favorable". In Tehran, these five types of lifestyles are the basis of boundaries, cultural exchange, and the interactions of individuals. The results showed that the degree of cultural boundary and crossing was different from the types of lifestyle groups among Tehran residents. Also, the degree of cultural boundary and crossing over of lifestyle groups varies according to the individual characteristics of social actors such as social class, age, gender, education, and so on. For example :Higher social classes compared to lower social classes, high educated people compared to low educated people, men compared to women, residents in higher clusters relative to residents in lower clusters, Tehrani compared to non-Tehrani, younger people compared to middle-aged and older, divorced and single compared to married and deceased spouses cross cultural-social boundaries more. The significance level of all results was more than 99% and all hypotheses have been confirmed.

Occurrence of natural disasters is associated with negative psychological consequences for survivors which requires basic interventions in order to accelerate the process of their psychological recovery. Utilizing the capabilities of art plays an effective role in reducing the psychological damage to society. However, the subject of “art therapy” has been around for hundreds of years under titles such as “Catharsis” or “psychological refinement”, and its present form, first introduced by “Sigmund Freud” and has grown rapidly over the past 30 years, but “art-oriented projects” is a new concept that has been experienced in the past two decades in the definition of projects based on "artistic leadership" and taking into account local culture, in order to create a positive and creative interaction in affected communities in the face of crisis. Contrary to the traditional approach, which is limited to the use of art in reducing post-traumatic events, it emphasizes the use of multiple capacities of art at different stages “before”, “during” and “after” a crisis. In recent years, Australia has been successful and consistent in implementing art-oriented projects in the face of natural disasters and has achieved significant results. This descriptive-analytical research has been done by studying these projects with the aim of gaining new insights in the use of art in reducing the psychological damage of natural disasters. Based on the results of this study, systematic attention to the role of art in all stages and at different levels of crisis management in the country and the use of different artistic mediums in proportion to the crisis, while considering age and gender differences, plays a significant role in reducing the psychological damage of natural disasters and the emotional recovery of survivors.

The story, as a model of society, is a medium that is capable of representing the various mental and increasing social abilities and causing socialization and change in the personality dimensions of human beings. This research, in a library-based way, based on qualitative research and content analysis, examines the attitudes of the characters of the short story "A valid narrative about killing" based on social psychology studies "attitude" and "Functional Attitudes" In personal, interpersonal and social relationships to the deviant behavior of "murder." Mastour , the various aspects of the attitude depict a multitude of people in the community about murder and instilling the attitude and drawing the ideological perspective of the actors of the story, especially the first personality of the story, is at the center of attention of the text. The functional theory of attitude, by revealing the inner motives of man, explains the phenomenal cause of attitudes and describes the role of attitudes in directing social behaviors.It seems that the attitude of people in society towards this inhuman phenomenon can be evaluated based on value-based functions, but the analysis of the text shows that people's attitudes even towards this neglected phenomenon can be based on various factors, in For profitable functions. Also, despite the relative stability of the attitude of different people in society towards a phenomenon; the quality of interpersonal and interpersonal communication in confronting social events and phenomena can lead to cognitive imbalance and significantly attitudes and the formation of unpredictable behaviors.

The study of books as one of the most important examples of cultural taste of citizens is one of the important issues and major concerns of developing countries to the extent that the importance of reading books is one of the fundamental components in development in the general sense and one of the tools of economic development. therefore; The aim of this study was to analyze the relationship between "cultural capital and cultural taste of Tehran citizens in the field of consumption or reading books." The research method is analytical-descriptive and the research data has been collected in a survey (questionnaire). The statistical population is citizens over 15 years old in Tehran. The sampling method was cluster random in five areas (north, south, west, east and center) and the sample size was selected using Morgan sample size table of 400 people. The validity of the formal research tool and the reliability using Cronbach's alpha (total) was 0.885. The results show Pearson correlation coefficient; Among the independent variables of individual education (0.401), cultural and artistic activities (0.538), interest in reading books (0.602), music consumption (0.595) and film and serial consumption (0.410) and the dependent variable, ie cultural taste of book consumption, there is a positive and significant relationship. The results of one-way analysis of variance test also indicate a significant difference in the cultural taste of book consumption in proportion to the cultural capital of individuals. In other words; The more cultural capital people have, the more and different their cultural tastes will be in different types of books (generalities, society, religion, philosophy and psychology, history and geography, art, entertainment and sports, literature, technology, science, language).

Architecture is the focal element in the development of the art ofPersia; it specifically flourished in the Timurid and Safavid era and therefore is of elevated significance. The remains of these periods indicate the measureless growth of Persian architecture splendor. A unique feature of the architecture of this period is the presence of women and their direct influence on the development of grand structures and monuments which is undistinguishable in other periods of Persian art. The focal aim of this paper is investigating the vigorous role of women in the architecture of the Timurid and Safavid eras and their manipulation in the imperial court. Hence, after a short introduction on the major characteristics of the Timurid and Safavid architecture, the talented innovative women and a number of architectural structures will be introduced.

The way of visual representing women cover in private & public communities by considering religious culture of Islam & Islamic Iranian literature at Iranian paintings (miniatures) is the subject of this paper. The research method is reading common signs in miniatures hypertexts and analyzing their intertextuality to find the functions of lingual system & the context of miniatures on the women veil. In this approach, each painting includes a cohesive lingual system which combined signs of visual art, literal discourse & religious teachings. Simultaneous presence of these text in Iranian paintings, obliged transtextual analysis as comprehensive reading at comprehending these paintings. Thus selected works were analyzed based on this method. The sample was selected purposively and the reflection of women veil in public & private communities and the kind of their social presence were considered at reading paintings. The main question of this paper is: by considering women veil, how the social interactions of women have been represented at Iranian paintings? Is the way of visual representing women veil at miniatures is dependent on their location in public & private places? The findings of paintings analysis shows that women images at Iranian paintings include an intimate concealing which is not so much dependent on the women presence in public or private places and the women have been imaged at both places by religious advised veil.

The aim of this paper is to analyze content of commercial advertisements printed in common publications of the country during two eight-year period in order to show the process of the changes, form and style of representation of traditional and gender stereotypes in sixteen years ego. The research data has been collected through systematic sampling of 456 weekly and monthly copies. Comparing data of two studies showed that, although in the second period traditional roles (mother, wife and housekeeping) has been represented less, but in the second period women somehow depicted (beautiful, young and skinny) so that they always need to regenerate their bodies. As a result, in both periods incomplete and distorted image of women has been represented that one cannot assume it would be the image of Iranian and Islamic women. Therefore, it is necessary to use the whole range of achievements and successes of women in different fields to challenge this kind of representation.

Giddens's structuring theory has the appropriate capacity to explain social phenomena over other theories. Going through each of the structuralist and individualist theories, he neglects both the necessity of rigidity and the complete freedom of human action and emphasizes the equality of each. The main question of this study is that what is the impact of the role of waqf culture and its function on the formation of Tabriz market? This article is based on a historical-interpretive method. The information was collected through library and field studies and the study area is the traditional market of Tabriz. The results show that the beginning of the formation of the Tabriz market dates back to the early centuries of Islam's arrival in Iran. The results also show that Muslim activists have used the "rules and resources of waqf " in times and places to construct the Tabriz market and have been building the Tabriz market over the years. As for the function of the waqf, it can be said that the most important function of the waqf is the reproduction of Islamic values and norms and their continuation over many centuries. Finally, it must be said that Muslim activists are influenced by peripheral constructions, especially Islamic values and norms. And again, the institution is dedicated to their actions.

Hijab, as a social norm, is one of the most important religious laws in public and social domains. Islamic Republic of Iran has legislated Hijab. However, in the recent years, several instances of low veils have been observed in Iran’s society. This paper aims to understand reasons of low veils using the research method of Development of Theory, which is a qualitative method. 29 Mashhad women with low veils were asked to answer a questionnaire. They were then divided into two types of “the level of Sharia Hijab” and “attitudes towards Hijab” based on their answers, which helped finding their reasons for low veils. Generally, Mashhad women with low veils are influenced by aggravated process of social effects which led to insignificance of Hijab in their minds. Most of these women considered Hijab as an action without social and personal functions. Moreover, they believed that Iran’s society is moving towards accepting low veils, and so they try to Coordinate themselves with the community.
