Qasim Amin was one of the Egyptian intellectuals, with his two books, he started many social changes in Egypt, which spread out among other Islamic countries as well. some of his opinions were about the position of women in society and thier hijab, which at first was raised in sympathy with Islam, but after a while he raised his personal opinions that were not in harmony with Islam. He considers the hijab of eastern women as the cause of regression in eastern countries, and the lack of hijab of the western women as the source of progress in western countries. He also believes that the lust of men is stimulated and increased as a result of the hijab by women. same as communism, he believed that there are four historical periods for women, and when a woman reaches the fourth period, she has reached complete freedom. He believed that using the hijab is imprisoning women and considered the hijab only for the Prophet's women. He also believed that hijab is a result of interaction between Islamic countries and thier neighbor countries. These raised topics are just some of Amin's beliefs about hijab, which he expressed in his two famous books, Tahrir al-Mur'a and al-Mur'a al-Jadidah. in this article we compare all of Amin's views about the hijab with Morteza Motahari's views, and based on Morteza Motahari's comments, he will been given appropriate answers. The influence of western modernity and the place that westerners had portrayed for women is obvious on Amin. the general direction of Amin's works is gender development and he emphasizes on women's education and considers women's freedom as approaching western civilization. he examines the hijab from the perspective of Islamic jurisprudence, but in the end reachs to his personal opinions about the hijab and seekes complete freedom from the hijab.

The issue of hijab and cover in sports is a controversial problem in today's world, especially in the Olympic and World squares. The present article has examined the attitude of athletes towards hijab and chastity in women's sports, as well as the opportunity or limit of hijab and chastity in sport. In this survey, 300 female athletes from East Azarbaijan province were selected by random sampling method as sample of this research. A researcher-made questionnaire was used to assess their opinion about hijab and chastity and the related issues. The results of hypothesis testing and path analysis were demonstrated by AMOS23 software. Findings showed that there is a positive and significant relationship between attitudes toward hijab culture and chastity in women's sports with the opportunities and constraints of the hijab and chastity in sport. The result of this research shows that most people who participated in sports not only did not hijack the exercise, but considered it an opportunity to flourish. Also, the culture of education and education of the people is one of the most important suggestions made by economic and cultural actors, such as constituencies, universities and etc. to achieve the desired goal.

There are a variety of social songs. Some types of the songs are works songs. Work songs are the songs that women and men singing during work process, for work or in the memories of work. The goal of this study is the role of Kurdish women in production of work songs in one side and thematic analysis of social topics among them on other side. The guide theory of the study is rooted in folklore theories. The most important theories in folklore knowledge are comparative, national, psychoanalysis and anthropology. In this case, we used the last one. Methods of data collection were document and field interviews. For Data analysis, we used thematic analysis methods. The results of this research show that varieties of work songs are so much and some of these songs are produced by women. Some of these songs belong to agriculture and animal husbandry societies. In thematic analysis, we exclude five categories like, aesthetic, love, production, economy and critics. At the last time, we collected these five categories as subject model of "soft art of social protest".

Fashion as one of the most popular cultural industries, while enjoying economic profit, plays a significant role in the transfer of creative ideas and cultural growth of communities based on their cultural heritage. The fashion industry like other industries includes a cycle of creation and design to production, distribution and eventually consumption. Given the ambiguity in the situation of the fashion process in Iranian society, this study seeks to describe and analyze the current situation of the fashion cycle of clothing in different stages of its development in Iran. The fashion cycle has been investigated through the interview method (in-depth interview in the design, production and distribution stages and semi-structured interview in the consumption stage), documentary studies for collecting data, thematic analysis (in the analysis of the design, production and distribution situation), and qualitative content analysis (in the analysis of the consumption situation). The results of this research have indicated that with significant problems in the knowledge structure, socio-cultural structure and political economic structure, domestic and pioneer brands cannot be created in Iran. The lack of Islamic-Iranian brands has consequences including the separation among the process stages and increase in existing problems in each of these stages. Finally, the endogenous fashion process can never be formed. The imported patterns cannot overcome the Iran clothing market.

This paper studies traditional clothes of women from a sociological viewpoint regardless of a historical viewpoint. The paper focuses on the functions of traditional clothes of women in the southern seashore of Iran. It is theoretically based on the functionalism and sociology of dress theories. The research method in terms of approach is qualitative, and the research data have been gathered through documentation and observation of different traditional clothes of women in the areas of “Boushehr”, “Hormozgan” and “Khouzestan” provinces. Based on these data, the effects of four basic factors (natural geography, cultural geography, religion and job) on the formation of different traditional clothes of women in aforementioned provinces of Iran have been described and the impact of these factors on the structural patterns and visual decorations of these clothes has been analyzed. The paper assumes that the above mentioned factors affect the design and decoration of traditional clothes of women in the southern seashore of Iran. The results show that the most important factor affecting the form, design and texture of traditional clothes of women in the southern seashore of Iran is natural geography, then religion. The effects of cultural geography and job are ranked third and fourth, respectively.

Family is the most important pivot of a society that paves the way of its prosperity or causes its misery; an institution which has currently and unfortunately lost its stability, with its referring to Islamic life style being its panacea. Therefore, it is useful to present a suitable pattern of Islamic family through showing productions. To this end, the present study seeks examine the content policies of the desired representation of Islamic life style of family within show productions. This study has been carried out in two stages. In the first stage, the content of 7 books (including 21 volumes) on Islamic family was examined, through qualitative content analysis. The analysis in this stage resulted in 725 codes classified in 93 concepts and 12 categories, and finally presented as the comprehensive pattern of Islamic family with 3 axes: theoretical perspectives of Islam on family, practical solutions for strengthening family, and family instability factors. In the second stage, with the questions designed based on the pattern obtained in the first stage, the experts and professors in 4 areas, namely management and policy making, family and Islamic life style, TV production, and communication science were interviewed. The interviewees were selected through purposeful sampling and the interview itself was conducted in a semi-structured form. The results obtained from the interviews were codified and categorized. Finally, the results of the study were presented in two parts. The first part titled as “objectives, axes, and priorities” included 7 categories namely, “marriage and making family”, “outlining the position of family members”, “the economy of family”, “the desired environment ruling on family”, “visiting relatives”, “the duty of family members”, and “dealing with family instability factors”. The second part also titled as “content policies and rules” included 35 content propositions concerning the desired representation of family in show products under Islamic life style.

One of the important implications of contemporary literature is reflection of people and the culture of human life showing human as an integral part of the story; therefore, attachment of human culture to people has entered this literary form. Some parts of this culture include traditions and superstitions as well as social, religious, and medical customs and another part includes language and local dialects and songs, poems, proverbs and games. Modern woman writers are those who pay special attention to their culture, their works portray human relations with culture showing that appropriate or inappropriate use of this culture in education and human life in the story is rooted partly in real society; on the other hand, it becomes apparent that sometimes the content is a mask on hidden thoughts and intentions of the author helping her create a more artistic and sometimes more complex work. Of course, given the sex and insight of the author, as well as context and setting of the story, the way these contents are presented mat vary, an issue which can be examined.

Living in modern societies is full of advertising messages. These messages in diverse and numerous forms affect every day and working life of people. One of the most challenging subjects in advertising is representation of women in advertising and commercial promotions. A large part of representations in advertisements depicts women in their role as cultural stereotypes. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the image of gender that Iran ads show to audience. The current articles use Roland Barthes theory of semiotics. Semiotic is a method of representation that seeks to reveal hidden meanings and themes in the text. In this paper, we study the advertisements that unlike the others show women having new roles. However, in this form of representation, we face illustration of women in such a way leading to cultural reproduction of symbolic annihilation. The research results show that advertising process in Iran, like Western countries, has been sexist. Women in new roles as modern Iranian women have been used as a tool in the service of capitalism. Also in our country, which follows Islamic rules, appearance of women with makeup is in contrast to the laws of Constitutions of Islamic Republic of Iran.

Not only does media reflect realities but also it shapes them and while being effective on our knowledge of world surrounding us. Over the recent decade, women, along with their traditional roles, have approached new social activities, which were considered exclusively masculine in the past, and have created a stable status for themselves. But it seems that this change is not considered by T.V. advertisements. Advertisements are still representing a kind of stereotypical image of women with its emphasis more and more on their traditional and constructed characteristics. In this study, we are interested in knowing how women in advertisements are represented in Iran and USA. First a review of some pieces of research in the subject is presented in which the manner of representation of women is described according to case of USA. Then some comparable categories are derived from those investigations and are applied to the case of Iran. The findings show that the difference between the representations of women in TV advertisements of both countries is very slight. In most cases, these advertisements are similar and both attribute stereotypical roles and characteristics to women.

The increasing number of women as a faculty member having social roles, although indicating progress in social and scientific fields, has developed many challenges. This study has provided a phenomenological understanding of the status of women as a faculty member in place of their career and family roles. This phenomenological research is of qualitative type. The data was gathered by interviewing 13 female professors and faculty members of Universities of Tehran while looking out at their problems. The samples were selected based on purposive sampling. The Colaizzi’s method of data analysis was used to analyze data. The findings were classified into four main themes including "maternal responsibilities in the family", "job role and a role at university", “balance between job role and family role”, and “problem solving and difficulties of dual roles”. Semantic understanding shows that female faculty members face challenges in terms of number of job and family roles and applying some personal or family strategies as well as organizations benefit can easily create balance between the roles and responsibilities of the job and the family.

Mate selection is either the effect of the love or romantic relationship or a cause of formation of pre-marital romantic relationships among today’s generations. Few number of sociological researches performed in this area necessitates its examination. So, the current research aims to present a deep understanding of romantic relationship and its destructive aspects among women. This study attempts to investigate the concept of love, reasons of women’s tendency to the romantic relationship and how they interact in such relationships. This study uses a qualitative research along with a case study method. Theoretical sampling according to the theoretical saturation and analytic induction gave rise to selection of 20 women who had experienced romantic relationships. Results showed that emotional reduction and strict importance of satisfaction of emotional need can lead to unequal romantic relationship, so women consider love as an emotional shelter. Conditions which intensify emotional need of women include: authoritarian/ neglecting family as well as emotional rivalry among friends; therefore, they see their beloved as the exclusive source to meet their emotional need. In conclusion, they pursue a behavioral passivity and identical simulation in their interaction with their beloved. The consequence will be that they will be socially neglected while facing emotional breakdown if split-up occurs.

Noinformation about the life of Farroxmard Vahrāmān (F son V) collector is available. In principle, it is possible that the book be written under the reign of Khosrow Parviz, the last king listed in the book. .This article will examine the legal term “gōhrēn kardan” in the book of thousand judgements. ōhrēn and gōhrēn kardan has been used in three sentences of this book. By examining these three sentences, the legal term is interpreted. By studying law and legal issues in Sasanian Iran, we see that the legal application of gōhrēn kardanis a serious phenomenon. The role of women in trade represents a serious presence in the social and economic areas to strengthen the foundation of family.

Nowadays, the audience plays a key role in the interpretation of cultural products including movies. Thus, discovering how the audience make sense of and interpret things can lead us to the social world underlying such interpretations. Women are among audience who could have different readings based on their cultural and generational experiences and background. Based on the interpretive paradigm, the present study aims to address the question: how would the female audience of two different generations interpret the movie Two Women? The study adopted an interpretive paradigm based on group interview as the research strategy. To this end, two groups of women from two different generations aged 20-30 and 45-55 years were selected purposively as the participants and were interviewed in two distinct groups. The interpretive analysis of the data revealed two different readings by the two different generations in terms of personality traits and the fate of the film characters at the textual level and in terms of such concepts as patriarchy and identifying with characters at the contextual level. However, the two groups converged in terms of their meaning making based on the conflict between tradition and modernity and the interpretation of events based on this dilemma.

This study examines votes, ideologies and goals of Iran’s cultural-intellectual currents after the Islamic Revolution in order to describe their scale and type impacts on women rights in Iran. In the first section, a theoretical explanation of the relationship between social currents and legal demands based on social realism approach along with viewpoints of scholars who believe in the correlation between social evolutions and legal developments is presented. In the second section, Iran’s cultural-intellectual currents after the Islamic Revolution currents have been grouped with respect to religion and their relation with tradition and modernity within an analytical-logical framework. The results indicate that in Iran, where rights and laws are derived from Sharia (Islamic law), opinion about this matter creates two general approaches: religious and non-religious, the former is consistent with Islamic rights and stand in the face of it attempting to eliminate the religion from legislation and the latter considers the basis of discrimination to be its religiosity. In following, the attitudes towards this tradition and modernity are the basis making the classification into Traditionalism, Civilizationalism, Religious Intellectualism, and Mixed Intellectualism in religious approach and into Secular Intellectualism and Political Intellectualism in non-religious approach; sub-currents performances and behaviors of each of these classes against the social evolutions and religious context of the society, make and determine different levels and types of women’s rights.

This paper provides a qualitative study on life style changes in Iran’s Kurdistan- Mariwan City. It tries to connect these changes to identity formation of women in this city. Mariwan, as a boarder city, due to its geographic, political and economic situation has faced an unexpected economic growth and lots of cultural transformations. Therefore, new life style as well as new formation of identity has emerged. This study examines the sources, processes and ramifications of these socioeconomic changes, as well as their impacts on women identity. Methodologically, this research is a qualitative study based on ethnography approach. Grounded theory has been employed for collecting and analyzing data. Based on purposive explorative sampling method, 53 in-depth interviews have been conducted with women- married and single. Findings show extensive socioeconomic changes in women's life style. These changes mostly are in conflict with local socio-cultural values and norms. Based on the analyzed transcribed interviews and some observational material, several categories such as conditional, interactive and consequent categories have been extracted. Finally "Tense Identity" has been shown to be the core category of this study.

This paper is an invitation to accept and to apply the senses in the field of ethnographic research of art. I tried to embed the aesthetic dimension of handmade fabrics woven by Lümə-Dərə community– one of Tərəkəmə clans in Northwest Iran- in their sensual world and make an approach toward understanding it. Therefore, I have made a bridge between anthropology of aesthetics and the anthropology of the senses. Focused on handmade fabrics, my field work has done in Lümə-Dərə. My ethnographic experience showed me that the motifs and designs woven on these fabrics cannot be analyzed via a macro-level and reductionist approach using written literary and mythological resources. In contrast, one should try to achieve a perception close to people creating fabrics, and to embed these forms in a context of real lived experience amongst those people. Toranj is a common shape among Iranian local and ethnic communities and art researchers mostly comprehend this shape by its meaning or aesthetic dimension. In this research, however, it is shown by reviewing Lümə-Dərə designs that the importance of water in images woven on the fabrics is routed in common values and local philosophy of this ethnic community.

Abstract:Focusing on two works of Iranian women from two generations, this paper aims to demonstrate Women Writing Tradition based on the views of Gynocritics point of view. Due to the complexity and the various interpretations in Feminism literary criticism, an elaborated review will be provided. Elaine Showalter considers three phases in women’s writing which are Femininity, Feminist and Female. In order to meet the comprehensiveness of the thesis, we took a look at the form and narration style of these works and applied them in determining the Writing Tradition of these two writers. We showed that women writing tradition in Iran had its own fluctuations and after passing the imitation/ femininity period, it passes over feminist writing toward female writing. The best example of this is the novel “I turn off the lights” by Zoya Pirzad. Although this work as an example of Female Tradition, is itself inter-textual. It can scaffold other works in future by other authors who can represent their innovations and novel styles in women writing tradition through interaction with such works.

Marriage among siblings has remained a controversial subject in the study of ancient Iranian customs and rites, especially in regard to Zoroastrianism. There have been endless debates on the existence of such a custom in ancient Iran. What have largely remained unnoticed in such a study are the religious beliefs of the ancient Iranians in the primitive forms of totemism. Totemism is an ancient form of religion that existed amongst many communities and many scholars believe that it rejected marriage between brothers and sisters and instead encouraged marriage with non-relatives in society. The present research attempts to: a. reflect some of the research done on marriage amongst siblings in ancient Zoroastrian Iran, b. use evidence from Shahnameh as well as Zoroastrian texts to show the existence of totemism in ancient Iran, c. consider such diverse researchers and scholars’ views as Freud, Durkheim, and Strauss in consolidating the theory that a totemistic society would hardly allow such marriages.

Tools used questionnaires and semi-structured interviews that their validity and reliability of the questionnaire using Cronbach's alpha coefficient calculated experts comments and 0/89 are estimated. The Population included all female students in their last year of graduate school at the University of Isfahan that were in the academic year1390-91 And the sample size was estimated 254 person using Cochran's sample size formula. Quantitative results demonstrate the effectiveness of the lack of interest in science and the development of personal and family life improvements in the MSc course. Interviews with the questionnaire findings are not consistent. Results also revealed that demographic variables had no effect on the variables studied. Quantitative conclusions about fulfilling the expectations of the curriculum and syllabus indicates that students' expectations are not.
