In social media studies, the linkeage between social media and the public sphere is one of the most comprehensive topics. This study focused on the relationship between the dialogue -oriented platform of Clubhouse and the public sphere. The direct observation technique was used to collect data from one of the Iranian rooms in the Clubhouse, “Jedale Dagh” Club, in order to explain this issue. Then, this room’s communicative actions and conversations were studied using thematic analysis. The research indicated that “creating bipolarity and othering, taunting, labeling, prioritizing self-interests over collective interests, and threatening to expose” were among the most important instances of instrumental action. In addition, the following were among the most significant examples of value-rational action: “Open discourse, logical discussion, observing fairness, accepting mistakes, using respectful expressions, turn-taking in the dialogue, and guiding the dialogue.” The research also demonstrated that the rational-critical dialogue of users was characterized by “logical reasoning, presenting evidence, using statistics, and expressing solutions.”

The social network can be seen as a complex arena of human relationships that has emerged in the present and among social activists. The purpose of this research is to study the main components of the general field and its adaptation to the telegram social network. This research has been conducted using qualitative method and using content analysis approach. For this research, nine groups of telegrams have been selected and targeted for a week. Studies show that the social telegram network, despite its potential and actual capacities, offers a good opportunity to publish and critique social-rights issues, to have more freedom, and more. This network can not be considered as a public sphere, but it can contribute to the formation of the public sphere. It should be noted that among the components of the public sphere, the "raising of civil matters" has become more closely related to the public sphere than the other components, but the component of "freedom of speech, equality in dialogue and the creation of discursive space" is shaped and deformed Finds out the public sphere.

Although, the reasoned and open debate that results in the formation of public opinion is a defining feature of Habermas' notion of the public sphere. However, because of the clustering of people and their exposure to similar concepts and ideas, there will be less conversation and conflict of votes on Persian Twitter, and if there is, it will be illogical and reasoned. This study aims to discover and explore the distinctive traits and features of users who are scattered among the network's major poles and enable communication. We determined brokers' exact activities and utterances by optimizing centrality indicators and categorizing their tweets using a social media critical discourse analysis approach. Finally, after summarising and concluding, we demonstrated how the brokers' words and deeds parallel Habermas' theory of communicative action. We deduced that if the user applies the criteria suggested in the theory of communicative action, they will most likely function as a mediator or facilitator of communication in a distinct and unrelated cluster rather than in the midst of the communication stream, which is connected to other clusters.

Since the beginning of the new era, the intellectual movement has been established as the most important producer of ideas and stimulus for the foundation of cultural and political institutions in societies. Depending on their context and time, the members of this movement made writing a means and an opportunity for a serious and sustained response to the crises and other rifts of human society.

The article is written according to the theoretical model of "life policy" and its method is comparative.

In the present article, considering the malignant crises affecting the living world today, the nature and work of intellectuals with a focus on the critical sociology of two prominent thinkers is discussed. In answer to this questionnaire, it is shown that although the two theorists have distinct and conflicting epistemological aspects, their theoretical apparatus is closely related to the conditions of society in contemporary danger. The purpose of this study is to critically examine the exposure of contemporary critical sociology in the era of post societies  "post-corona".

The main purpose of the present study is to compare the intellectual work of Michel Foucault to Jürgen Habermas in the situation of "post-…" societies and to find the effective and useful aspects of Foucault's theories and Habermas's views in the face of crises and dangers of humans’ political and social life in our “present” time.

Production and consumption are not mere economic terms, as they have, for many years, expanded into the sociological realm and spatial analyses. Consumption has been introduced as a key subject in Sociology and Humanities, signifying that the current society is rich in consumption ethics. Because architectural and urban spaces involve peoples’ daily lives thus, it is imperative to address the consumer subject in urban architecture and city planning.This research is an interdisciplinary study that uses a descriptive-analytical approach to explore the contemporary consumer culture and urban and architectural spaces. Reviewing the literature, the study provides a classification of consumer spaces, including commercial and tourism-recreational spaces.This research does not aim to provide a comprehensive conclusion because it strives to enter into spatial dimensions, a subject that has gained the attention of sociologists and thinkers of other scientific assemblies and in the position of architecture and urban planning, the consequences are still original and debatable. Characteristics of intended spaces and their formative and content dimensions reveal that the grave challenges facing our cities are that spaces risk getting empty and converted into platforms for superficial consumption and this issue can be seen and pondered in some cities of the country.

The identity of a woman, including female-headed households in any society, is defined in terms of gender, economic and parenting roles in both the pri-vate and public spheres by the symbolic order that governs society. The purpose of this study is to analyze and represent the lived experience of these women in their private and public spheres.

This research was conducted using a qualitative approach and descriptive phenomenological method. The research area was Mashhad and the par-ticipants were female-headed households in the summer of 2021 who were selected by a purposeful method of criterion type with maximum distribution. Data were collected by semi-structured interview method and the interview ended with theoretical saturation at the end of the 21st case. At the end of the interview, the data were implemented and read, and then the analysis of the participants’ narrative was performed through the Co-laizzi method and MAXQDA version 12 qualitative content analysis software.

Consecutive reviews of interviews and continuous comparison of data revealed the four main themes of family, social maps, feminine characteristics and self-concept promo-tion. The results show that in the perception of women heads of households, the private sphere is their special domain and is tied to the concept of care and empowerment. In this area, responsibilities such as housekeeping, childcare and housework are promi-nent. In the public and social spheres, such women are engaged in economic activities. However, financial, cognitive, physical and functional disabilities in this area are the most well-known influencing factors in their lesser presence in public activities. Con-clusion: There are perceptual dualities in this type of women that can be the subject of thinking and research in the field of gender, femininity and head of household.

With the opening of the political space and the birth of civil society discourse and the relative development of public sphere in the mid of 1370s in Iran, it became possible for the urban women of Kurdistan to enter the public sphere and create feminine civil organizations in order to realize women’s rights, demands and requests. These organizations, despite various structural constraints, have survived and worked so far. This study is about the ways in which feminine subjectivity has been constructed in these organizations, or how feminine subjectivity has been constructed in the contexts, features and activities of these organizations. We can also ask how do women, in the process of attempting to consolidate their own subject positions, redefine themselves in versus the male dominant other? To answer these questions, 18 active members and founders of these organizations have been interviewed. The findings showed that historical backgrounds, the prevalence of feminists’ views and the joining of women to occupational field are the main contexts of the development of these organizations.

Today, the media play an important role in the development of civil society and governance. In the meantime, having the skills to critique and analyze media messages is very important in strengthening the field and public dialogue. The present study aimed to investigate the role of media literacy in governance. The method of the present study was library and data collection tool was also electronic filing. Data analysis was performed as a document. According to the research results, six main roles can be considered for media literacy in governance: The first role is to promote active and informed citizenship; Because media literacy gives people skills such as critical thinking, problem solving, personal independence and communication and social skills. These skills facilitate participation, campaigning, and participation in decision-making and pressure. The second role of media literacy is to strengthen the public sphere; The public sphere is a place for the presence of various social actors in which people gather to participate in open and public discussions. The impact of media literacy in the third dimension on the promotion of citizenship rights; Since civil rights include political, social, and basic rights, media literacy has the ability and power to demand these rights from the government and to influence decision-making. In the fourth dimension, media literacy is a kind of question that requires the government to answer. In the fifth dimension, media literacy plays an important role in the development of civil society and the critique of government performance and the formation of civil institutions. In the sixth dimension, media literacy influences the creation of an atmosphere of public criticism and dialogue.

Abstract In today's world, the use of the Internet by users is expanding, virtual social networks with a variety of functions that can influence spying methods with their hidden function. This article examines the sociological impact of the performance of virtual social networks on spouse selection practices. In the theoretical framework, the theories of William Good, Giddens and Habermas have been used. The research method used, survey and data collection tool is a questionnaire. The statistical population of the study was both men and women in Tehran who have been married for the past five years. Using cluster sampling method and then the quota of 385 people were selected as a statistical sample. The data collection tool was a researcher-made questionnaire and the data were analyzed based on descriptive and inferential statistics using SPSS22 software, Lisrel structural equation modeling software. Data analysis shows that there is a significant relationship between the expansion of the public sphere, the formation of communication understanding, increasing awareness and social mobility with spouse selection methods. Also, using the structural equation model, the effect of expanding the public sphere (0.38), increasing communication understanding (0.56), increasing awareness (0.81) and social mobility (0.56).

The city management of the 12th district of Tehran’s municipality plans to build a boostan, fruit and vegetable field and Food- court as the three suggested options for the 2012 square-meter space in the Darvazeh Shemiran neighborhood. This article tries to assess the feasibility of building each project in terms of social and cultural outcomes, while assessing the needs of the residents of the neighborhood. To reach this goal, a survey of 387 people was conducted and an interview has been conducted with 11 local and regional directors, according to the population of 33297 residents using the Cochran formula. For the Need evaluation and feasibility evaluation of the projects, the theoretical framework of sustainable urban development was used based on the concept of the public sphere. After review, the result was that considering the importance of the public sphere and the urgent need of the Darvazeh Shemiran neighborhood, the construction of the boostan at the intended place should be prioritized to the other two options, the fruit field and the Food court. The other result is that considering the division of Tehran into different neighborhoods and the policy of the central neighborhood in Tehran’s urban management, providing urban services is based on the neighborhood while it seems that the “neighborhood” criterion for providing urban services should be changed to the “distance” and “population” criteria. In the end, for better use of the boostan and its definition as a public sphere, suggestions such as the construction of a historic museum in the place of Boostan and the revitalization of the Vali mill in the neighborhood have been presented.

The public opinion is a modern conception of the Enlightenment and beyond. this concept, although in its current sense, it was not until the Enlightenment and is not subject to scientific research, but before that also existed and has multifaceted applications. The Prevalence of this conception  and its subsequent scientific review arise from the core of Western societies in the 18 and  19 centuries. And its application to the Iranian society in the 15th and 16th centuries may be  far from reality and contrary to the conditions of that period of Iranian historical life But with a little reflection on this concept Along with its meaning and application in the life of European Societies It can be seen in the preceding Iranian history, including Iran during the Safavid era. After the power of Shah Ismail, one can see signs of social political cohesion such as the formation of central power and national identity based on religious ideology in Iran Which can be called the basic principles of the formation of public opinion.

From the point of view of this research, Safavid rule was formed in the realm of social life called the public sphere or people, in which the context of the emergence and formation of a kind of public opinion was provided

In today's world, social and virtual media are [almost] one of the main pillars of politics and policy- making. Both political structure and human subjects use these tools to achieve their goals and interests. Nevertheless, there are controversy about the positive or negative effects of social and virtual media in the process of democratization; This the medias, while inherently contributing to the contradictory function of "service and betrayal", depend on the accidental and lateral function of "the nature of political order".The emphasis of the present study is that the impact of adverse effects on the weak (fragile) and sometimes negative effects of social and virtual media in the process of democratization is more than inherent complications, Because the undemocratic nature of the political order does not allow the formation of a public space and the connection between virtual space and real. The case study of the ruling party of the AKP (2002-2019) confirms this claim .
