The discourse arguments concerning the political and cultural arenas in society exert effects on social institutions. Meanwhile, family, as the heart of lifestyle, is effected by discourse modeling. After the Islamic Revolution, the attention to the pattern of family to achieve an Islamic-Iranian lifestyle and reduce some of the social and cultural issues is considered necessary. Using discourse analysis theories based on discourse analysis (analytical-combinatorial model of Fairclough, Laclau, and Mouffe), the paper seeks to analyze the elements of Islamic-Iranian families as a product and an experimental efficiency of the Islamic Revolution discourse on three levels descriptive, interpretive and expressive. The results show that the pattern of Islamic-Iranian family is articulated on a number of concepts including justice-based, originality of individual and community, Islamic values and Iranian culture, and its distinctive features are Islam and Iranian culture. Besides, this pattern corresponds with the identity of Iran's society.

The life and social behavior of individuals and groups are influenced by the norms which determine the ought tos and ought not tos of social behavior and set normal cultural patterns. According to Islam, one of the main social communicative norms is chastity and Hijab. The main question of this paper is centred on the meaning and symbolic and behavioral aspects of chastity concerning verbal and non-verbal communications. Using a descriptive-analytical method, the paper seeks to delve into the connection of Islamic teachings about chastity with the knowledge of communication focusing on two theoretical principles of symbolic interaction and typology to achieve a deeper understanding of chastity on all levels of human communications, specially speaking, looking and behavior. Consequently, the fiqhi-communicative aspects of chastity in Islamic teachings are underlined and a new definition of descent communication is given. Thus, the paper suggests a theoretical principle for the communications in Islamic culture which makes the process of cultural policy-making on chastity easier issue.

The notion that TV is a liar per se seems to be exaggerated but the possibility of the bias, distortion, remaking, distorting reality and favoritism, etc in news programs is definite. Relying on three cognitive sources; ‘’research studies done in the realm of communications and journalism’’, ‘’international moral bylaws and charters’’ and ‘’fiqhi research studies on news), this paper seeks to extract the components that contribute to broadcasting true news and determine the characteristics of what can be called true news. The findings of this research show that, given the professional principles of journalism, international moral charters, fiqhi rules and views, the news products of IRIB will be authentic if they have such components as, impartiality, objectivity, justice, honesty and universality as honesty news providing indicators.

Since the victory of the Islamic Revolution in Iran, Iranophobia has been sown throughout Muslim and non-Muslim states and nations by the enemies of Iran’s Islamic revolution. The main question of this study is: what cultural policy should be adopted in order to deal with Iranophobia policy at an international level? Using an explanatory- descriptive approach, this paper concludes that, a cultural diplomacy can be used as a solution in which cultural measures are taken to show a good picture of the reality of one country to other countries as an attempt to face Iranophobia at an international level. Thematic analysis of the supreme leader's statements shows that the main content which ought to be made known to nations in the process of cultural diplomacy is"introducing Iran", and introducing the world to revolutionary Iran and cultural Iran.

Resting on the position taken in determining the relationship between science and religion, the approaches to religious science are divided into purificative and institutional. The institutional approaches include fundamentalists and ultra-fundamentalists. Fundamentalism includes inferential theories, method philosophy and correlation philosophy. Although the initial impression suggests that there are serious conflicts among these approaches, deeper meditation on the subject shows that they share common motives and follow the main pivots of religious science within the framework of a relatively common logic. The aim of this study is to review the way of resolving the conflicts and possibility of overcoming the shortcoming and weaknesses in each of these approaches via the strengths devised in another. To this end, the discussions are centered on analyzing the nature, infrastructures and methodology of science in each approach. Finally, it is evident that the approach to method philosophy faces the problem of relativity, and the theory of combined philosophy has the capacity to resolve the concern of other approaches.

The relationship between agency and structure is the basic problem of the social sciences. In order to put an end to the empire of hermeneutic theories on the one hand, and structuralism and functionalism on the other hand structural theory intends to offer a more adequate explanation in this area. Given the pivotal role of epistemic principles in social theories, this paper attempts to localize the humanities through an analytical library-based method and investigate the methodology of the foregoing theory from the perspective of Islamic philosophy. The study reaches the conclusion that the theory of structuration emancipates the social sciences from the claws of extremism and holistic and individualistic methodologies concerning the relationship between agency and structure. However, because it does not take a realistic position on such issues like existence, man and knowledge, it cannot serve as a perfect solution.

Peddling in one of the false jobs which have been created by extension of urbanism and increasing the urbanism attractions. Through the results which have been taken from observation and deep interview with 60 peddler men (30 peddlers of market and 30 peddlers of metro), in 1393, this qualitative research seeks to uncover the living experience of peddlers and restatement of general themes of the peddlers in the eye of the target population. The analysis of results shows four general themes, namely interactions area, peddlers’ typology, peddling attractions and the guilty persons in peddling. The investigation of peddlers’ typology theme shows that the recognized groups were common in the kind of work, but their motivations were different based on three concepts of; compulsion, goal and habit. The investigation of peddling attractions theme shows that, need for money, achieving suitable income, lack of necessity to pay rent, job independence and daily-paid are the common results between these two peddling ways. Also an investigation of the guilty people’s theme of the present conditions, with regard to the peddlers’ perception of this issue expresses high amount of the danger in tendency for demolishing the public properties in critical conditions by them.
