Iranian women, for the first time, owned newspapers for women with the advent of the Constitutional Revolution (1906). Newspapers were the only mass media in Iran during the Qajar period (1789-1925). Women's newspapers were also the most important tool of the women's movement in the struggle for gender equality. This study aimed to identify women's family issues and demands in women's newspapers in the constitutional era (1906-1925). The findings of this study showed that women's newspapers in the constitutional era considered the domination of patriarchy in society as the root of all women's issues and problems. Patriarchal domination for Iranian women had various consequences, including the forced marriage of girls, child marriage, polygamy for men, domestic violence against women, prevention of women's employment, feminization of poverty, and the spread of prostitution. For this reason, women in their newspapers strongly criticized the dominance of patriarchal discourse in society. They sought to undermine the patriarchal discourse in society. The purpose of the women's newspapers was to pave the way for family law changes in the country. In this way, they sought to control the negative consequences of patriarchy on the lives of Iranian women.

Rumors are unofficial and invalid statements that create in several steps within communication systems, since information transmitted from a person to another, so there is huge chance for mutilate information. (Gloria 2015). Today rumors in social messengers, for example Telegram, are very rampant and on the other side, Telegram users and people believed this rumors easily and even retransmit that rumors. One of the main reasons that users interests in diffusing rumors on social messengers is that they are not adhere to Gothenburg - Written communication principles and so they go from first Oral communication to second one. On the other side when audience does not convinced by official media (like national TV) and feels the event whole or partly doesn’t expose to him (by TV policy officers or reporter). So they lose trust in official news agencies and therefore try to get information from other ways like social messengers, resulting that audiences use news and rumors (planned or unplanned) that diffuse in social messengers as a source of information. In this thesis researcher wants to investigate if national (government or state) media inform audiences truly, can we still observe rumor transmission and retransmission on society? How much of the national media is effective in the growth of this phenomenon? In fact researcher wants to investigate the Relation between Trust to the National Media and the Reliable Predictability of the Rumors that spread in Telegram (social messenger) in Ahvaz (city). In this research observed that 37.8 percent of audiences admitted Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting(national media) in the field of fast transfer of relevant news,53.6 of audiences admitted Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting in using of reliable sources for news, 57.8 audiences admitted that The dependence of the national media on the political system in too strong, 50.3 of audiences admitted too strong and strong censorship in Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting(national media), and 37.5 percent of audiences describe the performance of national media in Comprehensiveness of news and programs as suitable, also observed that fast transfer of news, The dependence of the national media on the current political system(government) and censorship are effective factors in the tendency to believe in the rumor on social messenger

If we consider that voice is a reflective ability of actors for narrating themselves and others’ lives and a sort of significant choice to reform the current situation, so the Constitutional era’s satiric poetry is a unique form in terms of constructing the public voice: an appearance of critical poetic form towards the society. In this research, the contexts of public voice’s formation have been historically explained and by studying four main poets of this era-based on Albert Hirschman's voice theory, themes and the manner of public voice has been analyzed. The effective factors in formation and development of public voice is: frustration arising from comparison between Iran and modern countries, absence of easy opportunities for exit (although it’d got possible), national loyalty sentiments and the possibility of voice’s effectiveness due to weakness of sovereignty. Public voice in the constitutional era has been unequivocal. While this voice is straight and distinctional in criticizing of public culture, it is rather oblique in criticizing politics (Shah, politicians and colonialism). Regardless of the validity of these poetries, satire was so a fantastic form to appear the horizontal collective public voice that paved the way of construction of collective political identities and – accordingly - vertical voice towards dominants.

For proceeding the issue of “The meaning of Islamic Ershad”, investigating various viewpoints about the meaning is demanded. At this paper it has been focused on “Dialectic” and “the Meaning” in the hope that this investigation will help us in achieving the meaning of Islamic Ershad.
Before focusing on the link of “the meaning and dialectic” we should find out what do we mean by dialectic? If we refer to the history of thought and philosophy, we will meet different characters who exhausted to dialectic; of course there are some basic differences in their thought and philosophy.
At articles especially philosophy ones, are evolved during history; and dialectic is not expectance. For instance, Plato’s idea about dialectic is different from Kant’s. At this paper we don’t propose to observe the meaning of dialectic. Therefore we try to point to common aspects of dialectic as well as various aspects of intelligentsia and philosophers’ viewpoints.

Is the film Sang-e-Saboor "Rock patient" express the true nature of marriage in Afghan society? To answer this question and whether the character and functions of men and women in this film, showing the culture of men and women in Afghanistan or not; this article analysis the concepts of masculinity and femininity in the dialogues of one of the most popular films by using Laclau critical discourse analysis method, psychoanalytic theory of Karen Horney and the critical theory of orientalism. The film Sang-e-Saboor "Rock patient", represents the marriage life of a wounded men and his wife at the time of the civil war in Kabul. This Analysis shows that the concepts of femininity and masculinity represented in stone patient do not reflect the cultural nature of marital relations of Afghans. However, the discourse methods exchanged between the injured man and his wife represent part of the hegemonic discourse of war in Afghanistan which cannot be considered the only hegemonic discourse in Afghanistan.

The object is to compare leisure patterns in adolescents (15-18 years) and adults (35-55 years) and the logic of their formation in Iranian families. Gender identity and religiosity role in these patterns are also investigated. 2615 adolescent and adult using cluster random sampling in 15 districts of Isfahan were chosen in this survey. Leisure practices were analyzed in three groups (individual, family base and friend base leisure) using factor analysis to obtain patterns. Family leisure in adolescents had two patterns. Individual leisure had three patterns and friend base leisure in two patterns was categorized. Individual and family leisure in adult group had 3 patterns each and finally friend base leisure was categorized in 2 patterns similar to adolescents. Findings show that individual patterns are different in adolescent and adults qualitatively. Film and music are matter a lot for adolescents and it is religiosity which makes the patterns different. In adult group gender identity and education make patterns distinct. Some individual and family patterns had significant negative relationship with religiosity. We did cluster analysis using individual leisure patterns for age groups. We found a high religious and three less religious clusters in adolescents and an educated, less traditional cluster along with a less educated, traditional group of adults. First group got high scores in religious patterns of leisure and second group had lower scores in religious patterns but they are more active in family base patterns.

Considering the new concept of emotioncy (emotion+frequency), the present study intends to examine the lingua-cultural concept of [nāz] in Persian language using Hymes’(1967) SPEAKING model. The outcomes of this study revealed that the concept of [nāz] has been mostly prevalent inthe collective culture of Iran, and the expressions related to [nāz] are even more widely used in comparison to the past. The high frequency and variety of this lingua-cultural concept is due to fact that Iranians have mostly positive and mixed emotions toward this concept, and as a result, their level of emotioncy toward [nāz] is higher (Inner-emo and Arch-emo).Overall, the results suggest that this lingua-cultural element is more commonly used in informal situations with participants of equal or unequal power relationships. It was also concluded that the main aim behind the use of this lingua-cultural item is to use it as a politeness strategy. Considering the oral mode of language, the tones that are accompanied with [nāz] are usually begging, admiring, offensive, and sardonic.

The present study is a Critical Discourse Analysis on twenty four episodes of a BBC Persian T.V programme entitled “Pargar”. The main purpose of this study is to represent how the dominant hegemonic discourse in this special program i.e. secularism discourse wittingly manipulates audience minds so that they acknowledge religion’s survival and existence only in the forms of neo-emerging theosophies (Erfans) or individual spiritualties. Indeed, religion is imagined as a missing one in public domain. Articulating discourse of religion in dichotomies such as modern expert/Marja sonati, Erfan/ Fiqh, Religion Essence /Religion rituals, individualism /Marjaism tends to deessentialize all essences presupposed among the traditional believers. Indeed, religious reformation and dereligionism are two strategic approaches which secularism applies to deessentialize religion. As a result of this deessentialism, religion has been transformed into something so-called shallow and neutral so that it cannot be easily recognized as a concrete phenomenon in social life.

The present article analyzes the sociological discourse of Azari folklore in Iran from the perspective of critical discourse analysis. The current research has analyzed and interpreted the stories and proverbs of the Azari language based on Norman fairclughs critical discourse analysis approach. The main question in this study is what discourses and proverbs of the Azari folk have been used in the discourse and what have been the conditions for the formation of those discourses? To analyze and explain the theories of Laclau and Mouffe's (1990) discourse analysis, Norman Fairclough's Critical Theory (1995), Clifford Geertz's Theory of Cultural Interpretation (1973) has been used as a theoretical and conceptual framework, and Fairclough's Critical Discourse Analysis approach has been used as the research method. The research type was qualitative and the analyzed data included three stories and thirty Azari folklore proverbs that among them two examples of folk tales and ten proverbs were analyzed in this article. The qualitative data of this qualitative research were selected in a purposive manner from three written sources of Azari folklore . The findings of the study indicate that there is a conflicting discourse between politics and the people, and the language of Azari folklore is a means of expressing criticism, protest and criticism of politics and the social situation.

The aim of this article is analyzing the performance of two mainstream and rival media spectrum (ISNA news agency, Shargh daily newspaper and BBC Persian channel against Fars news agency, Keyhan Newspaper and IRIB newscast) in managing the news flow related to Isfahan Acid attacks on women during October 16 to October 31, 2014. In this article, purposive sampling was done and for analyzing data, two methods of thematic analysis and quantitative content analysis were used. The results indicated that ISNA news agency was heading news streaming, while Persian BBC and Shargh daily newspaper were both trying to keep the news alive. Meanwhile, Fars news agency, Keyhan newspaper and IRIB news at the initial stages tried to keep silent and blackout the news and just after forming the news flow, they began to cover it. Such a delay in covering the news, besides passive and pro- government approaches as well as formal language were considered as the main reasons why this media spectrum failed to impact properly on managing this news stream.

The main topic of this article is to examine the relationship between physician and patient in the context of cultural communication. According to the different communication models that govern the relationship between physician and patient, it is predicted that the dominant communication model in the treatment system will be patriarchal or parental model. The method of this research is qualitative and the data are analyzed using Maxqda software. To achieve the purpose of the study, 15 patients with different ethnicities and dialects, as well as 10 physicians, interns and residents who had experience working in public hospitals in Tehran in 1398 were interviewed. Then the interview results were coded and analyzed in three stages. In both groups, 3 categories of comprehensive code including communication-information disorders, physician authority, and inter-cultural communication disorders were obtained,. According to the analysis of the research findings, it was concluded that communication disorder in the relationship between physician and patient in general and the issue of cultural difference is only one of the aggravating factors of communication disorder between physician and patient and is on the margins of this relationship. It was also concluded that the treatment system currently has many weaknesses in the field of communication skills and is dominated by the patriarchal communication model. The lack of academic communication skills in the medical community as well as the patient community is the most important factor in this weakness.

In recent years, the press has witnessed a decline in its audience due to various factors, including cultural, social, political, and economic influences, as well as existing restrictions. This research aimed to investigate the reasons, processes, strategies, and consequences of this issue by employing the grounded theory method, which follows a systematic approach. The participants in this study were communication media experts and individuals with a minimum of 7 years of experience in the press field. Through purposeful sampling, a total of 29 people were selected and interviewed using a semi-structured interview. The data were analyzed using the three-step coding method of grounded theory, which includes open coding, axial coding, and selective coding. The findings revealed that the causal conditions influencing the distancing of the press can be categorized into three parts: socio-cultural factors (such as Iranian oral tradition, digitization of culture, minimalistic life, and institutional mistrust), political factors (including political restrictions and behavioral politicization), and economic factors (such as economic poverty, inflation, and high prices). The contextual conditions contributing to people's distance from the press are the political economy and virtualization. Additionally, the intervening conditions impacting people's distance from the press encompass content weakness and structural weakness. To address this issue, strategies such as content modernization, communication modernization, and structural modernization were identified. If these strategies are successfully implemented, the most significant consequence for the press would be a reduction in people's distance from it, leading to a decrease in the downward trend of the press audience.

This paper tries to answer the questions whether it is possible to discover the cognitive dissonance among blogger journalists through their blogs and whether blogger journalists are suffering from cognitive dissonance. Festinger's cognitive dissonance theory is applied in this paper. Following up these issues involves understanding the content of blogs. For this reason, quantitative and qualitative content analysis were used. In this paper, the contents of the blogs of 20 journalists working in Hamshahri, Kayhan, Iran and Shargh newspapers were selected using purposive convenient sampling method and then they were analyzed. The results indicated that most blogs criticize the political situation. Blogger journalists are more willing to write using article style; and half of articles written by them have been evaluated as having cognitive dissonance. The results of this paper indicate that it is possible to discover the cognitive dissonance among journalists through the content of their blogs.
