The development of information and communication technology infrastructures, the formation of various social networks, the activities of 3.5 billion people from all over the world and 47 million Iranian users in these networks have caused news agencies to collect, publish news and reach audiences. The purpose of this study is to explain how news agencies use social networks using media convergence theory. The study examined the performance of national, regional and international news agencies (IRNA, ISNA, Anatolia and Reuters) on Instagram and Twitter. The present study has used the method of quantitative content analysis for written textual data. 800 tweets ending September 1, 2020 (September 11, 1999) means 3200 tweets in total. Due to the total number, high sample size and random error are minimized, so this study has acceptable reliability. SPSS software and Chi-square test were used to analyze the data. Findings show that most of the published tweets were related to positive or neutral domestic news with 22% and foreign negative news with 16%. News agencies do not have a single procedure for using social networks, the type of interaction with their audience. It is influenced by the type of social network and also the behavior of the audience in each social network is different.

Oil and gas industry development has been one of the most consequential drivers of social and cultural changes in the south of Iran in recent decades. Industrialization led to different kinds of socialization and brought new values to traditional societies. Religious values are one of the most important cultural values that societies have strong resistance to change. This research aims to shed light on industrial socialization's impact on religious values in Pars Special Economic Energy Zone (PSEEZ). Rapid industrial growth in PSEEZ led to pervasive intergenerational cultural changes that reshaped the religious values of these generations, bringing a shift from religious to secular views. We gathered data from a survey between residents (aged 18-65 years old). We divide the sample into three groups (who socialize before; during and after oil and gas industries development in this region). We use SPSS to compare religious values means between groups (ANOVA). The results show that religious values are less common across those below 25 years old. This group was born and socialized after industrial development in the field. The differences between the experiences of the post-industrial birth cohorts and all older cohorts produced significant differences in their religious value priorities and, respondents who grow in the industrial space have more secular beliefs. Simultaneous with value changes between generations that confirm the socialization hypothesis of Inglehart; some changes in older generations' values and some resistances of younger people's religious beliefs both emphasize on modification of Inglehart's socialization theory.

In this paper, the aim is to analyze the mechanism of inequality production in modern Iran in the context of the views of the Weberian tradition analysts with emphasis on the role of power. The research method is historical-analytical and data is collected from second-hand sources. Weber's view on the analysis of inequality is based on power and prestige. Some Weberian and Neo Weberian theorists state on different forms of inequality, such as the unequal distribution of vital opportunities, social obstruction, and the unequal distribution of prestige, and emphasis the unequal distribution of power as the main cause of these inequalities. This analysis showed the forms of inequality in modern Iran and which factors play a role in the production and reproduction of inequalities in this period. The role of the government as the main mechanism for exercising power and the weight of power of privileged groups in the political, social and economic body of Iranian society in the production and reproduction of these inequalities were also explained. The privileged groups are the hidden layers of power at the heart of the modern state structure that have created social closure and prevented the distribution of life opportunities among different sections of society. These results can provide a basis for understanding the intensification of inequality in the present moment.

There was no significant difference between the social participation of married people, single people and age group. Therefore, there was no relationship between gender and age with the social participation of citizens.

Entrepreneurship is a process that plays a vital role in the continuation of national growth and development and even the global economy. The improvement of entrepreneurship creates new economic opportunities and businesses in society. Today, accumulating evidence suggests that gender plays an important role in entrepreneurship. The participation of women as a half of the population has significant impact on the expansion of social and economic activities. However, in recent years, the gender gap in entrepreneurship is one of the most important discrimination that women have been facing in the labor market. The present study was performed to assess the Explaining the Model of the Antecedents of Entrepreneurship intents: A Sociological Approach. Research in terms of purpose, type of applied research, and in terms of data collection method, is considered as descriptive (non-experimental) research. The subjects in this study were those who participated in seminars, startup events and ideas in Khuzestan province, southwest of Iran. The sampling method was a simple random sampling technique and data were collected using questionnaire. A total of 384 questionnaires were administered to the participants. A positive and significant relationship was observed between hostile gender sexism and gender stereotypes. In contrast, no significant relationship was found between benevolent sexism and gender stereotypes. No significant relationship was noted between hostile sexism and entrepreneurial intention. On the other hand, a positive and significant relationship was observed between benevolent sexism and entrepreneurial intention. Gender stereotypes play a mediating role in the relationship between hostile and benevolent sexism and entrepreneurial intention. Finally, research findings indicate that the process of socialization, educational status and family ideology can have a significant effect on women’s activity in busuness areas.

Regarding the importance of the concept of human development as the main objective of development and consequently, the reduce gender inequality and also, importance of the potential role of women in the process of economic growth and development, over the past few decades, economists and international organizations including the United Nations, have emphasized the status and contribution of women in development process as one of the development criteria. In this research, the status of women in the development process in Islamic countries has been evaluated and compared on the base of 26 selected indicators, using the numerical taxonomy method in 2005 and 2015. The results of the research show that in this period, in the most of Islamic countries, the status of women in development process compared to men has improved, although, the dispersion and inequality among the countries has increased. According to research results, in 2005, women in Qatar and Chad with a development degree of 0.68 and 0.99 and in 2015, in Kazakhstan and Chad, with degree of 0.64 and 1/1, respectively, have the highest and lowest status in development process. By comparing the degree of development of Iran from 0/84 to 0/83 from 2005 to 2015, it can be said that although gender inequality in development in Iran, has slightly reduced, its ranking in among 33 Islamic countries has fallen from 15 to 17. Also, the coefficient of dispersion in the Islamic countries in gender inequality in development has increased from 0.88235 in 2005 to 0.11219 in 2015.

Put. In order to perform meta-analysis of 50 scientific research articles published in prestigious journals, on the subject of international migration in the period 2004-2020 in order to analyze international migration, we also used the capability approach.

Increased actual migration and the desire to migrate will cause a serious disruption in the development process of the country.
