Abstract
In Iranian higher education, the university management system (UMS) has taken on an overly pyramidal and centralized structure and has created a minimal intervention space for stakeholders, especially students which have challenged some of the functional areas of universities. This research shows the lack of proper development of participatory culture in universities as one of the main reasons. The objective of the paper is to design a mechanism to promote student participation in the UMS based on the development of cultural components. Using the heuristic mixed method, first in the qualitative section to identify culturally effective components on student participation in a purposeful judgmental method, a sample of 15 studies was selected and 50 components were counted systematically by fuzzy Delphi method through experts consisting of 17 people. In the quantitative section, the current status of student participation based on cultural components were identified in the form of descriptive-survey method, through a researcher-made questionnaire from the perspective of 381 people from the stakeholder community of the Islamic Azad University, Science and Research Branch, selected by simple random sampling method and then assessed using SPSS software. Students' participation in the Iranian UMS based on cultural components is not favorable. The formation of non-interactive processes, unwillingness to work in a team, centralization of universities, lack of appropriate participatory structures along with the weakness of cultural components are all important obstacles. This study indicates that 41 cultural and social components in 4 institutional dimensions (12 components), attitude dimension (13 components), behavioral dimension (8 components) and value dimension (9 components) affect the promotion of student participation in the Iranian UMS. Strengthening these components can lead to the promotion of the university management system in the form of a "council system".

Abstract
The present study has aimed to investigate changes in students' attitudes and believes that ultimately lead to the formation of their final identity after entering the university. Hence a qualitative narrative approach has been used. The statistical population comprised all students of Kurdistan University in Iran. Using convenience sampling, 14 students who volunteered to participate in the study and express their narratives were selected. Data was collected using semi-structured interviews, which continued to reach a theoretical saturation. The duration of the interviews varied from 40 to 60 minutes. The Braun and Clark method were used to analyze the data and achieve the main themes. The main issue in this study was the changes in students' believes and the formation of their identity in different fields, which were influenced by several factors. According to the results, the main extracted themes are: political identity, spiritual identity, scientific identity and social identity of students, which has been formed as a result of attending university in a different way than the time of arrival.

Abstract
Going to the cinema is one of the needs of the blind population of Iran. Due to the limitations of the blind, these people use this cultural opportunity in a limited way and with special conditions. The purpose of this study is to understand the meanings of the lived experience of the blind from the cinema. To interpret the experience, Van Menen's Method of interpretive phenomenology was used. Targeted and snowball sampling was performed with semi-structured interviews until theoretical data saturation. Finally, the lived experience of 25 congenitally blind people who go to cinema was analyzed. Data collection tools are observation and interview. Findings of the study includes 5 themes, watching a movie, multidimensional pleasure, screaming, making a dream come true and taking a step forward. Sofar no qualitative research has been done on the blind of the cinema audience and their lived experience in an interpretive way. The results of the research show that the ritual of going to the cinema can be a step towards realizing the dream of the blind in equipping ordinary cinemas; they feel like they belong and enjoy this solidarity. But the life description, along with the release of the film as an unusual method, causes many problems in conveying the meaning of the images to the blind. Filmmakers have no knowledge of the principles of description and have not been trained. Participants also called for cinemas to be equipped with sound systems for the blind and to achieve the goals of the inclusive community.

Abstract
The present article, focusing on one of the most important areas of production and reproduction of inequality and inferiority, namely labor relations, seeks to examine the conflict and rivalry of intellectual and social currents. The study of these currents from the perspective of their analysis and prescriptions on recent trends and processes of labor relations in Iran, i.e. the temporalization of labor, requires drawing the ratio of government, society, and market from the perspective of those currents. After drawing the most important features and coordinates these intellectual currents, based on the concept of development, the gaps are expressed. Despite the obvious differences and confrontations between these currents on the issue of labor and employment relations, both lack a developmental perspective and therefore are weak or lacking in both the role of government in development and the importance of the human factor for development. As a result, they either reject the government or the market.

Abstract
Industrial development has been one of the most consequential drivers of social and cultural changes in societies in recent centuries. Industrialization has led to different kinds of socialization and brought new values to traditional societies. This research aims to shed light on industrial socialization's impact on religious and gender values in Pars Special Economic Energy Zone. The data has been collected from a survey among residents (aged 18-65 years old). Also the samples have been divided into two groups (who socialize before or after oil and gas industries development in this region). The SPSS and AMOS have been conducted to use multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) and structural equation modeling (SEM) methods. The results show that gender inequality and religious values are less common among those below 30 years old. This group has been socialized after industrial development in the field. In other words, respondents who grow in the industrial space have more egalitarian values about women and more secular believes.

Abstract
Since the advent, intensification, and expansion of modernity, the relationship between religion and religiosity and development has been one of the most enduring and intense cultural, scientific, policy-making, and day-to-day challenges. In Iran, with the occurrence of the two constitutional revolutions and the Islamic Revolution and the emergence of liberal and fundamentalist religious ideas and currents, this challenge has emerged and intensified. In Iran, the relationship between religion and modernity and related debates and challenges have been mostly analyzed and studied at the level of insight or at the level of micro survey. Therefore, the aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between the level of social-cultural development and the level of religious religiosity at the provincial level. The research method was a documentary method of secondary analysis. First, the level of social and cultural development of different provinces and the level of their religious religiosity are calculated; after the relationship between the two variables is investigated. Provincial clustering was done based on indicators of social and cultural development and religiosity using the K-means cluster method. According to the research results, at the individual level, with the exception of Khorasan Razavi and Kurdistan, respectively, all provinces that have a higher rank in terms of cultural and social development indicators have a lower rank in terms of ritual religiosity. Also at the cumulative level, provinces with low and medium levels of development have a higher degree of religiosity than developed provinces; But the difference between the religiosity of the less developed and the moderately developed provinces and the average developed is not statistically significant.

Therefore, it has been decided to examine the degree of fairness and justice of divorced children as one of these variables according to the following models and in the game the Dictator. Economic analysis is usually based on the assumption that people are completely interested in themselves and that they are looking to increase their personal gain.

In this model, people have fair tendencies and are sensitive to unequal results. In this article, at first the children of divorce and their moral characteristics have been introduced, then the game the Dictator and the model of Fahr and Schmidt (1999) has been introduced and analyze. To check the correctness of this model and its results in the case of divorced children, a two-person experiment in the form of a dictator game has been designed. This test was performed for male and female high school students in one of the cities of Iran. The results show that a significant proportion of divorced children choose between self-interest, between fairness and self-interest.

Huge inflation and decrease of purchasing power during the recent years have led to downward mobility of middle class in Iran. Various facets of decrease in physical and social space have to be studied. For this purpose, 20 cases who had experienced such situation have been interviewed. Making use of the most famous coding family of grounded theory, this research categorizes the interviews into contexts, causes, turning points, consequences of involuntary exit from city or neighborhood, and strategies of the outcasts. The research shows that people long after move to new place assume that residence in the new place is temporary. They are ashamed of ascribing themselves to that place trying to actively keep distance from the inhabitants. This along with exclusion from family-friend network of relations and the isolation resulted from this exclusion diminishes any possibility for their political agency in order to make a change in the state of affairs.
