To understand the concept of ‘new generation’ co-operatives it is useful to look first at ‘traditional’ co-operatives. This is because the new generation co-operatives have developed in response to perceived limitations associated with traditional co-operatives. The concept of a new generation co-operative can be somewhat elusive if not seen as a response to the limitations of traditional co-operatives. It is an evolving concept, and what might have been regarded as ‘new’ some ten years ago may now be seen as ‘old’. In this paper a distinction is made between new generation co-operatives and hybrid cooperatives. A distinction is also made between hybrid co-operatives which have members and investors within the one business entity (the co-operative), and multiple business structures where a co-operative holds a shareholding in an investor-oriented-firm (IOF) that undertakes value adding and consumer marketing. Some commentators group all of these alternative structures together as ‘new generation co-operatives’ on the basis that they are all attempts at overcoming limitations of traditional co-operatives. However, although they are sufficiently different to require separate analysis.

Employing qualitative research method and the research strategy of grounded theory, this study aims at designing and explaining sustainable belongings model of the new employees, which causes fewer negative effects of environmental changes and challenges and prolongs the servicing of new generation employees in the organization. Data collection is performed by semi-structured in-depth interviews with 25 new generation employees working in ICT-related business and experts in the field of employee belongings in the ICT industry. The sample is selected theoretically by snowball technique. The analysis of the collected data, according to the Strauss and Corbin paradigm model, is performed in three stages of open coding, axial coding and selective coding. The results revealed that belongings of the new generation of employees are the final consequence of their experience in the workplace. Pleasing and developing workspace (as actions and interactions) can promote the new generation’s belongings. Furthermore, efficient interaction between managers and employees (as a central category), actions and activities focusing on the expectations of new generation employees (as intervening factors) designed and implemented by the human resources units, the nature and the brand of the company (as a governing body), involve factors which affect the development of attractive and developing workspace. Organizational culture in line with the values ​​of new generation employees were identified and introduced in this study as causal conditions and the baises promoting sustainable belongings of new generation employees.

At first, education was the university’s only goal; nevertheless, scientific progress in the twentieth century added research to the universities’ missions. The industry sector’s knowledge-based technologies added a third mission to universities and brought the university into new fields. The fourth-generation universities provided a more comprehensive view by considering the four elements including university, industry, government, and civil society and the next generation (the fifth generation) of universities also considered the environment in addition to these four elements. The present study examined the optimal conditions and requirements for new-generation medical universities (third- to fifth-generation universities). This review study extracted 187 scientific documents from domestic and foreign databases and after screening, 56 documents were selected for the study. Finally, the propositions relevant to the objective of the study were extracted and categorized using content analysis. This study identified 17 optimal conditions for transitioning to new-generation universities. Moreover, 41 requirements were extracted and listed for achieving these conditions, each under its corresponding condition. New-generation universities are known as borderless and accountable universities. Thus, the communication and exchange of knowledge, capital, and value with institutions outside the university at the local, national, and international levels as well as accountability to the needs created at these levels are the main principles of new-generation universities. Given the unique structure of the Iranian health system and the infrastructure for communicating with society, by fulfilling other requirements, this structure can facilitate the transition to new-generation medical universities.

The new generation that organizations are facing today and must prepare themselves for their entry is Z Generation. Managers must both understand the individual characteristics of this generation and know how to manage them. The current research seeks to provide a suitable model of human resource management for Z generation employees in IT organizations. Data collection was done by using the snowball sampling method to select experts and through semi-structured interviews with 15 human resource managers and 20 employees of Z generation to analyze the qualitative data collected from the interviews with managers of IT companies. In the framework of the grounded theory strategy, the method of continuous comparison analysis is used. The results were classified in the form of Strauss and Corbin's model in six main categories of causal factors, contextual factors, intervening (mediating), central category, strategies (strategy) and the consequences of applying the human resources model of the new generation of employees. Finally, the results of the research showed that if the human resources model is used for the new generation of employees, this will have three main consequences, which include; Financial and economic consequences are management consequences and extra-organizational consequences.

Organized gangs usually are considered as a threat for security of human societies. But today، rising of a new generation of organized gangs، is resulted in serious worries about birth of a new kind of rebels and consequently fear about creation of a serious threat for states sovereignty on behalf them. In fact، tendency of the new generation of gangs to control on the land of a government، the their high level of organization and using widespread violence by them، make such a similarity between these groups and rebel groups that some experts consider them as a new kind of rebels and acclaim that acts of governments against these kind of gangs must be seen as a non-international armed conflict. But The analysis show that there are important differences between new generation of gangs and opposed armed groups in relation to goals، structures and so each one of these phenomena must be considered as a different phenomena.

The World Health Organization Quality of Life-BREF (WHOQOL-BREF) has generally been used for patients，few studies in migrants who move from rural to urban within one country. Many studies asserted that social isolation presents a risk to individual health. Poor social networks are associated with worse QOL. This study examined health-related quality of life (HRQOL) and social support in new-generation migrant workers and compared it with urban workers. Nine hundred thirty new-generation migrant workers and 939 urban controls completed the WHOQOL-BREF questionnaire and Social Support Rating Scale (SSRS) by stratified sampling in 2011. Spearman’s correlation was performed to clarify the relationship between social support and HRQOL in migrants. Multiple linear regression analyses were used to identify the variables that were associated with HRQOL. The general health, psychological health, and environmental scores of QOL in new-generation migrant workers were lower than in urban workers. New-generation migrants had poorer social support compared with urban controls with regard to general support, objective support, and support utilization. A positive correlation was found between social support and HRQOL. Workers with a higher level of education achieved better psychological, environmental, and general scores than workers with a primary education. Physical, social, environmental, and general health was also closely connected with the age factor. Physical health scores were higher in males than in females. These data suggest that new-generation migrant workers have significant impairment in HRQOL and receive less social support. HRQOL may be affected by social support, education, age, and gender.

The purpose of this study is to optimize substance use by introducing a new generation of academic books. To this end, academic textbooks were integrated with web-based technology. Educational media including text, audio, video and animation were designed with the help of quick access codes and added to the main text of the book. In the redesign of the textbook in the form of a new generation of academic books, 300 pages of printed content of the book were reduced and made available to students in the form of web-based multimedia. Quick access codes could be used by students using a smartphone. This study was conducted in the second half of the 98-97 academic year with a statistical sample of 57 students. In this study, students received educational content using a new generation of academic books. The results showed that the new generation of academic books in the study sample reduces the consumption of 8553 sheets of paper, equivalent to 42.77 kg, which is equivalent to saving the life of more than one tree and reducing the consumption of 1670 liters of water. Therefore, considering the number of applicants, the importance of the quality of graduate education as well as the positive results of using technology in learning, introducing and expanding the use of the new generation of academic books, can play an effective role in optimizing material and energy consumption.

Sociologists consider many factors to be effective in social change. Meanwhile, uninterrupted circulation of the population occurs through the disappearance of older generations and the emergence of new generations in all societies. This issue is of interest to most social science researchers. Phenomena such as "generational differences" or "generational disruption", which are among the factors influencing modern social change, is the result of such process. Certainly, the gap between the previous generation and the new one, creates new demands for the new generation due to: changes in some beliefs and differences in the literature and logic of understanding the phenomena and engaging with the new conditions. Young people are at the turning point of this generational shift. Their efforts to change and develop new ideas and demands, given their diversity and breadth, are manifested in different fields and contexts, and this is why phenomena called "generational difference" was born. Since intergenerational relationships involve social cohesion and national interests, there have been many attempts to recognize this segment of social harm. Successful transition from the conditions of generational transformation depends on the conditions of socialization. Socialization is the most important factor in removing social divisions at a time when generations are clearly changing. If the patterns of previous generations are persuasive for the new generation, generational gaps are tolerable and society does not suffer an identity crisis.
Political systems are the most important source of socialization that try to reduce and tolerate gaps by increasing their capacity to respond to the demands and expectations of the new generation. If disruptions are occurred to the functions of the political system, a rift will occur between generations and an identity crisis will follow. Now the question is what was the role of the post-revolutionary political system in generational relations?

The human leukocyte antigen (HLA) system has unique genetic and biochemical complexes, so it is important to determine the type of HLA in a clinical and laboratory process. In addition, to its application to assess the risk of various diseases, it also plays a vital role in organ transplants. The determination of HLA in patients requiring transplantation, in addition to the accuracy, also requires the speed of action. So that any delay and error in this work can endanger the patientchr('39')s life. The need for a precise definition of the HLA type, along with improved speed and cost reduction, has led to the introduction of several methods for this test. Today, the introduction of a new generation of revolutionary sequencing has been carried out in genetic assessments. The HLA determination also uses this technique, and a variety of methods have been introduced for genetic HLA examination using a new generation of sequencing. In the present study, along with the review of traditional methods in HLA diagnosis, two of the most widely used techniques based on a new generation of sequencing methods, Thermal Sequencing method and Illumina Miseq method were evaluated.

The increasing share of the media in human communication has created challenges for families in the field of parenting. Challenges such as "disruption of the natural path of reference selection, reduction of the agency of the new generation, disruption in the identification process" have disrupted the flow of parenting and the transfer of religious-moral values. In this article, we are trying to answer the question, how can the family transmit religious and moral values to the new generation in the medialized world? While using Islamic teachings, we have used the findings of psychological knowledge. The method used in this article is analytical-descriptive. In this article, we have proposed such as strategies: informing the new generation about libertarian guardianship methods for the architecture of choice, planting ideas in childhood, focusing on the structure of the institution of ethics, active mediation in children's media consumption, and emphasizing the negative dimensions of identification instead of its positive dimensions. But above all this, there is the educational sensitivity of families. Families should be made aware of the educational effects of children's media consumption, and without this sensitivity, no educational strategy or method or principle will be useful in practice
