The politics of friendship comes directly from discussing the conditions of human beings with one another.Living and communicating with others is important and undeniable based on human social nature.Now a day,with the expansion of private space, as opposed to the narrowing of the circle of human common space, friendships have faded. The issue of violence and enmity in the Islamic world has gained particular prominence with the rise of jihadi takfiri groups, as often theorized and elaborated by scientific and academic research.However, the issue of friendship, which is otherwise a political issue from Schmidt's point of view, has been less addressed, especially in domestic research and especially in political philosophy. Contemporary Muslims have not been followed.Therefore, the present study seeks to discover indicators of friendship in the political thought of Imam Khomeini as a contemporary Muslim thinker and leader of the Islamic Revolution based on the theories of Hanna Arendt and Jacques Derrida (with emphasis and adjustment). To accomplish this, it is important to use the approach Schleiermacher's hermeneutics used qualitative content analysis, indentation and inference method. On this basis, the main question of the research is “How does the concept of friendship in Imam Khomeini's thought make sense of politics and politics in the Islamic world?” and its hypothesis is that categories such as vows and covenants, power, acceptance of differences, acceptance of differences, acceptance The other is that forgiveness, responsible friendship, and negative self-negation are decisive in the form of friendship politics in their thinking system.

Artificial intelligence (AL) is advancing without any predictions in technological development and scope. Meanwhile, some legal issues related to the avatar of a real person in Metaverse are discussed here. Considering, the emergence of the metaverse is developing, and all are members Gravatar, therefore, the inclusion of rights and duties in the relationship between them is undeniable, which includes the rights related to Gravatar in the regulation of relationships between them. The first part of the article deals with what rights and duties the metaverse and avatars face in artificial intelligence and basically why the rights of such avatars should be protected. In addition, the integration techniques for giving legal personality to avatars in the metaverse and some damages Such as committing crimes of theft, forgery and abuse of rights in the meantime are criticized. In addition, with an analytical and descriptive approach, imposing responsibility and liabilities on a real person by applying the rule of piercing veil" in the form of corporate law regarding avatars in terms of identifying the real natural person behind the avatar and through the criminalization of predictable actions and activities as the final result in applying the company's rights and the punishment applicable to the legal personality has been reviewed.

Islam, with its global reach, aims to spread its revitalizing teachings worldwide, and for this purpose, it requires various instruments and resources. The Quran describes the Kaaba as the House of God, a place offering safety, guidance, and a constitution for humanity's spiritual and worldly affairs. Given its significance, Hajj can play a crucial role in shaping the identity of Islamic denominations. In this article, we define identity and explore its dimensions—doctrinal, ritual, commitment, and attachment—highlighting the historical context from the second and third centuries AH and the practices of early scholars. We examine Hajj rituals across different Islamic denominations, focusing on shared principles that strengthen religious identity, enhance social capital, foster collective actions, and reinforce beliefs and values. Additionally, we explore the global dimensions of Hajj and how this unique practice can foster communicative, jurisprudential, and moral unity among Muslims.

With the disintegration of the Soviet Union in the 1990s, the understanding of power also gradually changed. Soft power by modifying the limited focus of realist power analysis i.e. possessing specific tangible resources to maintain and increase national power, introduces persuasive power; the ability to shape the desires of others not by force but through persuasion distinguishes between hard and soft power. In terms of effectiveness, it clearly showed the nature of the behavior and the concreteness of the resources. In Joseph Nye's explanation, soft power is an analytical concept that matches and overlaps with realist, liberal, and constructivist views and theories. Higher education can be regarded as an apparatus of soft power, thereby entailing examination of its relationship with other international theories.  The basic question is the position of the soft power of higher education in international theories and how it can be theoretically explained in the theories that have also observed pragmatic behaviors. Here, by explaining higher education as a cultural matter and an apparatus of soft power, we demonstrate its relationship with the theories of realism, liberalism and constructivism. Methodologically, we are conducting an interdisciplinary study, citing library studies and explaining descriptive review. In examining each of these theories, we present narratives, conceptual and theoretical frameworks regarding the role of the soft power of higher education to explain its role in domestic development and national interests in various political, social, cultural, technological and economic fields, maintaining peace and preventing conflict as well as its role in expanding public diplomacy and soft power of higher education.

current research is to critically analyze the discourse of world peace in the textbooks of the Iranian educational system based on the theory of identification by L& M. For this purpose, the textbooks between the years 1357-1392 (primary period and first period high school) have been analyzed. This article has been done with the combined method of analyzing the discourse of Fairclough, L &M and focusing on the following questions: What was the status of the world peace discourse in the educational documents of this era? What subjects are these educational materials trying to create? What role have the dominant political discourses in this era played in shaping the identity of these subjects? The findings show that the discourse of world peace in educational books and documents has been rejected due to the demarcation between Islamic and non-Islamic, internal and external. Power processes have tried to create militant and vengeful subjects with a military identity. The factor of persuasion of the subjects is the axiomatization of the ideologies of the revolution with an Islamic nature. Also, the educational content by inducing specific defense ideologies has formed pacifist identities in all individual, interpersonal, social and international dimensions.

Gender identity indicates the narrator's mental image of his "self", which includes femininity or masculinity. The main issue of this research has been the comparison of gender identity, in terms of poetic moods of Persian-speaking male and female poets, in order to extract the identity-gender stance of the narrator. To conduct this interdisciplinary and author-oriented research, a combined research method (descriptive-comparative-analytical-statistical) was used based on Sandra Bam's opinions. The statistical population of the research is authobiographies of 4 male poets (Sohrab, Akhwan, Shahryar, Emad Khorasani) and 4 female poets (Simin, Forough, Tahereh Safarzadeh and Sepideh Kashani). Conducting this research, the following results were obtained: in the field of vocabulary, adjectives such as: defending one's beliefs and aggressiveness as male characteristics and attributes such as: warmth and sensitivity to the needs of others, belief in superstitions, commitment to performing cultural rituals And being submissive appears as a strong female trait. Regarding grammatical construction, traits such as decisiveness in words, self-reliance, analytical power, and rationalism are the dominant characteristics of men, and in the case of women, characteristics such as lack of openness, politeness, simplicity, and interest in participation are reflected more. In all kinds of speech acts, characteristics such as: mental stability, power of expression and strictness in defending beliefs prevail for men, and features such as: hidden speech and sincere and emotional tone prevail for women.

Criticism of post-colonialism is a discourse consisting of ideas of people such as Fanon, Edward Said, etc., which can be placed under the context of fields such as art, literature and political science .In the field of literature, the post-colonial approach studies the literature of the colonial country and the works of immigrant writers of that country. This article examines the fictional works of "Mohammed Hossein Mohammadi", an Afghan writer, using a descriptive-analytical research method. In his works, he depicts the way and dominance of colonialism over culture and the extent of resistance of this culture against domination. The type of activism of this resistance is different between male and female gender. Although women are placed in a sexually inferior position, new identity structures based on the dialectic ruling the society cause them to be read differently than what considers them as objects in the patriarchal world. Studying literature with a post-colonial perspective is listening to the forgotten voices of people who have been under colonialism for years. This literature portrays the process through which the people of the colony have either associated themselves with the existing conditions and somehow experienced a melting phenomenon or have faced this attack.

At least in the last three decades, the concept of identity and its consequences on the behavior of governments at the regional and international levels have been the focus of attention for researchers and more broadly, critics of traditional theories of international relations. In other words, it is argued that, unlike traditionalists who focus on certain principles in the behavior of actors, to explain the actions of states, one must take seriously the power, preferences, interests and normative structures, that are inextricably linked to the identity of the actors. For example, post-Structuralists argue that the identity of the state is achieved through the inscription of boundaries that mark the 'inside' from the 'outside', the 'self' from the 'other', and “domestic” from “foreign”. Against this background, this research tries to evaluate the process of othering by actors in international arena and answer the basic questions of what othering is. What role does othering play in the identity of actors? In addition to answering the above questions, this study also attempts to evaluate othering in the eastern policies of the Islamic Republic of Iran and the Russian Federation.

research question: 

How do the Islamic Republic of Iran and the Russian Federation try to distinguish themselves from others with the "looking to the east" strategy and what is the common point or intersection of their strategies?Research hypothesis: The research has arguments, the Islamic Republic of Iran and the Russian Federation are trying to distinguish themselves from others (the West) by emphasizing elements such as geography, culture, civilization, ideology, etc. The common point of this distinction is the rejection of the West (especially the United States). Similarities in the Eastern strategy of the two countries, such as the geographical overlap, the emphasis on traditionalism and traditional values (anti-modern) and anti-hegemonic multipolar order also strengthens this common position.

This research is qualitative, and the author has tried to test the research hypothesis using a descriptive-analytical approach. The data needed to explain the problem is also collected through library studies (authorized articles, books and internet sources). Since the purpose of the research paper is to provide evidence of othering in the search strategy of Iran and Russia, the conceptual framework of othering was used to test the hypothesis

The results of this research show that countries define their identity in the regional and international arena and differentiate themselves from others through the process of othering. This distinction is based on the specific characteristics of each country, which can be cultural, historical, geographical, etc. This othering is an inevitable part of identification. The results of this research also show that identification and foreign determination can be seen largely in the looking east strategy of the Russian Federation and the Islamic Republic of Iran.

Iran and Russia are trying to distinguish themselves from others (especially the West) by referring to their unique geographical, cultural and civilizational features in the form of a look-to-the-east strategy and at the same time they try to attract others (especially Eastern countries) to their side. In the meantime, there are some commonalities between the Russian Federation's and the Islamic Republic of Iran's strategy of looking East, which increase the areas of convergence towards identification and cooperation with each other. The first of these similarities is the geographical overlap. In this context, both countries emphasize regions such as Central Asia and the Caucasus as a region of the East. Regardless of the physical geographical dimension, both countries consider regions such as Latin America in their geopolitical imagination as part of the Looking to the East strategy. The most important point in this context is the non-contradiction of the geographical borders of these two countries.The second similarity between the eastern strategy of the Islamic Republic of Iran and the Russian Federation is that both countries emphasize traditional values. Values such as justice, equality, freedom and similar values that are usually in conflict with modern values (especially the interpretation represented by the United States and European countries in the form of liberalism). Finally, the third feature of the Eastern strategy of these two countries is their emphasis on the anti-hegemonic multipolar order. Based on the interpretation of these countries, there are different countries and civilizations in the international system, each of which has its own characteristics and coordinates, so we cannot have one.

The present article is written with the aim of policy making for the components of national identity of the youth in the upstream documents of the Islamic Republic of Iran. The research is applied in orientation and exploratory in purpose, with the necessary information gathered through the documentary method and analyzed using thematic analysis. The results show that five main axes - "Iranian-Islamic history and identity," "love for Iran's geography and the need to defend it against foreigners," "sense of belonging to the political system and the legitimate values of the Islamic Republic of Iran," "culture and cultural heritage," and "preserving the Persian language and literature" - shape the main elements of national identity in these upstream documents. In the first axis, emphasis is placed on the youth's familiarity with Iranian governments, literary figures, the solar calendar events, strengthening the Islamic-Iranian identity, the spirit of spirituality, devotion and monotheism, the development of moral virtues, pride in being Iranian, and attention to religion in these documents. On the second axis, the active participation of the youth in defending the land, creating motivation and a love for patriotism to preserve the country's independence and political borders, love for the homeland, and protecting and promoting the environment, cultural heritage, and natural resources of Iran is of great importance. On the third axis, policies aimed at ensuring and safeguarding the national interests of the country are considered. The fourth axis includes policies referring to the recognition of common rituals and traditions, festivals and celebrations, traditional values, clothing and dress styles, architecture of buildings and places, customs, norms, and national and local arts. The last axis encompasses policies that focus on the care for "language as a strategic path for cultural influence" and emphasize its preservation and protection, while fostering unity, social and cultural solidarity. In summary, it can be noted that the terms "faithful youth," "Iranian youth," and "revolutionary youth" are important concepts in the upstream documents. None of the national identity components are superior to or dominant over the others in these documents. Equal and simultaneous attention to the dimensions and components of national identity in the upstream documents is of great significance.

The current research aims to investigate the post-colonial approach and assess its theoretical possibilities for rethinking and reflecting on Iranian identity in the contemporary era. The present study is qualitative and based on a critical and comparative analysis of the post-colonial theory with an emphasis on identity and the issues that have made Iranian identity problematic. This investigation, which looks at the most important aspects of post-colonial theory, includes some of the important opinions and ideas in the field of contemporary identity in Iran, which can be compared in terms of common concerns. Although Iran is one of the few countries that has not been directly colonized, it is not free from the problems of the colonial era, and in the identification of the recent era, it has faced the same problems that were raised in the post-colonial approach. Considering the multi-layered identity and their always complicated relationship, the important issue in this study is the quality of establishing a relationship between the components of the Iranian identity with each other on the one hand, and at the same time, facing the other in a new situation. Based on the post-colonial approach, redefining the Iranian identity requires a new rethinking of emerging identity requirements, which, on the one hand, requires taking a critical stance towards the dominance of the assumptions of the orientalist discourse and a passive tendency towards it, and on the other hand, must try to avoid the negative pole. In this regard, it is possible to avoid reactive and passive localism. Thus, in the context of the post-colonial era and context, away from the inherent epistemological dualisms, the possibility of establishing a new knowledge system based on the belief that identity is constructed, as well as the so-called hybrid nature of identity, is an important issue of redefining the identity of Iranians in the new era. Such a new rethinking is necessary for active interaction in the current world and for adopting a position beyond historical love and hatred.

The topic of this article is to investigate how the identity of children and adolescents is formed in the children's stories of "Mohammed Hossein Mohammadi" based on the views of "Eric Erickson" and "Anthony Giddens", which was investigated with the descriptive-analytical research method. Children, with the experience of poverty, institutionalized shame and hiding their feelings, will never achieve an organized set that can make a unit consisting of their personality and identity, which can be the origin of their crisis in the future.In this research,the stages of growth were studied in three stories and the following results were obtained: The first stage is the lack of basic trust in the child, the result of living in societies with defective infrastructures, behavioral challenges and identity crisis. The second stage is the child's lack of familiarity with himself in the form of his reflection in the game due to the absence of his father and mother's employment and economic problems. The third stage, modeling and striving towards libido to find the professional and sexual identity of teenagers in traditional societies, despite the limitations of the emergence of "multiple selves", is unable.

Azerbaijan has been a stage for profound social and cultural transformations over the past two centuries. These changes have not only impacted the region's historical identity but have also raised fundamental questions about its society and culture. Central authorities' efforts to divide the region geographically and undermine social identity, particularly by disregarding the Turkic language—a cornerstone of Azerbaijani identity—have exacerbated existing challenges. These policies, which have significantly influenced the region's social and cultural fabric, have led to the assimilation and isolation of segments of the Azerbaijani population. From philosophical and historical sociological perspectives, these developments compel us to reflect on the concepts of identity and society. Is identity a fixed and unchanging entity, or does it evolve in tandem with social changes? These questions necessitate in-depth research into Azerbaijani identity and the factors influencing it. This article aims to examine some of the reasons and factors contributing to the assimilation process in Azerbaijani society. Drawing on personal experiences and available data, it seeks to sound an alarm for the society and draw attention to the serious challenges that contemporary Azerbaijan faces. Evidently, overcoming this crisis requires a comprehensive and pragmatic approach from all segments of society. Such an approach can help preserve and strengthen Azerbaijan's cultural and social identity, fostering a space for constructive dialogue and rebuilding social bonds. Son iki əsrdə Azərbaycan dərin sosial və mədəni dəyişikliklərə məruz qalıb. Bu dəyişikliklər təkcə bölgənin tarixi kimliyinə təsir etməyib, həm də cəmiyyət və mədəniyyət haqqında fundamental suallar ortaya qoyub. Mərkəzi hakimiyyətlərin coğrafi bölgülərə ayırma və xüsusilə Azərbaycan kimliyinin əsas sütunlarından biri olan türk dilini inkar etmə siyasəti bu sahədə ciddi problemlərə səbəb olub. Bu siyasətlər açıq-aşkar olaraq regionun sosial və mədəni strukturuna təsir edərək, Azərbaycan xalqının bir hissəsinin assimilyasiyası və sosial ayrılığına gətirib çıxarıb. Fəlsəfi və tarixi sosiologiya baxımından bu dəyişikliklər bizi kimlik və cəmiyyət anlayışları üzərində düşünməyə məcbur edir. Kimlik sabit və dəyişməz bir şeydirmi, yoxsa sosial dəyişikliklərlə birlikdə dəyişirmi? Bu suallar Azərbaycan kimliyi və ona təsir edən amillər barədə daha dərin tədqiqatların zəruriliyini göstərir. Bu məqalənin məqsədi Azərbaycan cəmiyyətində assimilyasiya prosesinə təsir edən bəzi səbəb və amilləri araşdırmaqdır. Bu məqsədlə şəxsi təcrübələrə və mövcud məlumatlara əsaslanaraq, cəmiyyəti xəbərdar etmək və müasir Azərbaycanın həddən artıq tanış olduğu ciddi problemlərə diqqəti cəlb etmək istəyirik. Şübhəsiz ki, bu böhrandan çıxmaq üçün bütün sosial təbəqələrin iştirakı ilə hərtərəfli və praktik bir yanaşma lazımdır. Bu yanaşma Azərbaycanın mədəni və sosial kimliyinin qorunmasına və inkişafına kömək edə bilər və konstruktiv dialoq və sosial əlaqələrin bərpası üçün şərait yarada bilər.////// Son iki yüzyılda Azerbaycan, derin sosyal ve kültürel dönüşümlerin yaşandığı bir coğrafya olmuştur. Bu dönüşümler sadece bölgenin tarihsel kimliğini etkilemekle kalmamış, aynı zamanda toplum ve kültür hakkında temel soruları da gündeme getirmiştir. Bu bağlamda, merkezi yönetimlerin coğrafi bölünme ve özellikle Azerbaycan kimliğinin temel taşlarından biri olan Türkçe dilini görmezden gelme politikaları, bu alanda ciddi sorunlara yol açmıştır. Bu politikalar, bölgenin sosyal ve kültürel yapısını açıkça etkileyerek, Azerbaycan halkının bir kısmının asimilasyonuna ve toplumsal olarak yalıtılmasına neden olmuştur. Felsefi ve tarihsel sosyoloji perspektifinden bakıldığında, bu dönüşümler bizi kimlik ve toplum kavramları üzerinde düşünmeye zorlamaktadır. Kimlik sabit ve değişmez bir şey midir, yoksa sosyal dönüşümlerle birlikte değişir mi? Bu sorular, Azerbaycan kimliği ve onu etkileyen faktörler hakkında daha derin araştırmaların gerekliliğini ortaya koymaktadır. Bu makalenin amacı, Azerbaycan toplumunda asimilasyon sürecindeki bazı neden ve faktörleri incelemektir. Bu amaçla, kişisel deneyimlere ve mevcut verilere dayanarak, topluma bir uyarı çanını çalmak ve günümüz Azerbaycanının aşina olduğu ciddi sorunlara dikkat çekmek amaçlanmıştır. Şüphesiz ki, bu krizden çıkmak için tüm sosyal kesimlerin katılımıyla kapsamlı ve pratik bir yaklaşım gereklidir. Bu yaklaşım, Azerbaycan’ın kültürel ve sosyal kimliğinin korunmasına ve geliştirilmesine katkıda bulunabilir ve yapıcı diyalog ve sosyal bağların yeniden kurulması için bir ortam sağlayabilir.

The objective of this study was toexamine gender and the construction of feminine identity in contemporary love songs of Iran. The overall objective of this study was to examine the representation of femininity in Iranian songs, as songs are regarded as a significant artifact of media that has a significant cultural impact by attracting a large audience. In order to examine the paradigm of male-female roles that is embedded in the lyrics of the tracks, a qualitative approach was implemented, and the study is classified as a thematic analysis.A statistical society was established by selecting 50 songs from the tracks of more renowned singers as the statistical sample, from a vast array of tracks in the market that are all sung by male singers in accordance with governmental regulations within the five-year period of 2017 to 2022. Coding was employed to conduct thematic content analysis, which concentrated on the themes of linguistic descriptions of feminine roles. The coding processwas conducted by three programmers. The Krippendorff’s alpha coefficient was utilized to evaluate the reliability of coders, and the coding demonstrated sufficient reliability. The analysis of the sample of love songs in terms of feminine identity revealed that gender is constructed with three primary roles: 1. Passive and under control, 2. Sexual object and seductive, and 3. Unfaithful and negligent. The findings suggested that the feminine gender construction was devoid of any indication of conscious action, power, or autonomous choice on the part of the female gender. This suggests that femininity is depicted in accordance with the hegemony of a patriotic discourse.

Considering the role and place of religious identity in the harmonious and balanced development of the personality of the citizens, especially the young generation of the country, and the need to identify the problems and inefficiencies in this field, this qualitative research has tried to based on the lived experiences of the teachers (second secondary period) to identify the level of commitment of the students to religious identity as well as its main problems and challenges. The statistical population of the research was secondary school teachers in the city of Isfahan in the academic year 2023-2024, among them the experiences of 24 teachers who had at least 15 years of teaching experience in secondary schools and had sufficient knowledge and experience in the subject under investigation, were identified as sources of information for the research and were interviewed according to the principle of theoretical saturation. The data collection tool was a semi-structured in-depth interview. The seven-step method of Collaizi was also used to analyze the obtained data. Overall, the findings showed that from the point of view of the participating teachers, the level of adherence of secondary school students to religious identity is very low and at the same time, the growth and formation of this type of identity has 5 serious challenges, i.e. extreme conflict with virtual space and social media, negligence and inattention of students' families, problems of the educational system, influence of some social realities and the negative influence of friends and peer groups. It is obvious that thoughtful policy making and planning and careful action in the solving or reducing the mentioned challenges can play a very effective role in the growth and prosperity of the religious identity of the young generation.

Occupational identity Diffusion is one of the most important crises of the adolescent period, that disrupts the path of choosing a job, the need to recognize its signs is of particular importance due to extensive social changes in girls. The present study was conducted with the aim of investigating the lived experience of Occupational Identity Diffusion of ninth grade female students. The current research was a qualitative phenomenological type. The target population included all ninth grade female students of Erfan Qarchak Varamin School. For purposeful sampling, 40 students were selected and based on the cut-off point of the Identity Status Inventory- Occupation (Dellas & Jernigan, 1981), 27 had the criterion of confused identity, and finally 23 were selected based on opinion saturation. The expression of data collection was Identity Status Inventory- Occupation (Dellas & Jernigan, 1981) and unstructured interview with information interpretation. Data analysis was done with the method of Frost (2011) in four steps(Reading the text, returning to the text, checking the codes and classification). In the results of the semi-structured interviews, 60 codes or concepts were obtained, and 18 codes were obtained by removing duplicate items and combining similar items. These codes were classified into 6 sub-themes, then these 6 sub-themes were placed into three main themes. took, therefore experiences of students with occupational identity diffusion are classified into three main themes: individual experiences (lack of direction and lack of self-efficacy), family experiences (feeling of helplessness and parental neglect) and social experiences (limited resources and negative attitude towards the future of the job). Considering the multi-dimensional and complex nature of the occupational identity diffusion in the context of Iranian society, there is a need to plan to eliminate psychological-behavioral and educational-occupational injuries.

The aim of this research is to analyze the future presence of religious humans in the metaverse. Based on various perspectives and opinions, we delve into the belief systems and actions of religious individuals within the metaverse. We present a clear picture using an exploratory approach, categorizing potential, plausible, and probable futures. Finally, we propose a normative future based on religious criteria.

This qualitative study employs the futures research approach and Delphi technique for analyzing the future. The Delphi technique is used in two stages to reach consensus.

According to experts' viewpoints, religious individuals in the metaverse experience a blending of values. Their values are a mixture of religious and non-religious elements. Some of these values are unstable and depend on individual goals within their value system, leading to fluid identity. Due to insufficient cognitive reference points and structural requirements, there is a growing tendency to rely on celebrities as cognitive references.

Exploratory futures suggest instability in users' values and fluid identity. To enhance the religious environment for devout users, three fundamental steps are necessary: first, providing media literacy tailored to the metaverse; second, managing metaverse algorithms based on religious criteria in native platforms.
