Family, which establishes the personality and intellectual values of individuals in a community, can have a vital role in creating happiness in individuals. In this study, using the statistical data of 11 countries with more than 20 thousand dollars per capita income and 25 countries with per capita income below 20 thousand dollars, over the period 1981-2014, the relationship between the family's importance in life and happiness has been studied. Per capita income, unemployment, life expectancy, and income inequality variables are entered as a control variable in the panel data regression. The results show that in both groups of the country, unemployment and income inequality variables have negative and significant effects, and variables of family importance, life expectancy and income have a positive and significant effect on happiness perception. Also, the family importance in life in countries with low per capita income, as compared to countries with high per capita income, hasn’t different impacts on perceptions of happiness. Therefore, the positive impact of the cultural value of the family's importance in life on the perception of happiness is not dependent on the promotion of per capita income in a country. Per capita income does not count as a catalyst for having a greater impact on the family's importance in life on the feeling of happiness.

The study, focusing on the Harandi neighborhood in Tehran, is a rummage of poverty and urban social issues. Based on the autobiographical ethnographic method, the data are collected through observation, interviews, personal archives, interviews published by civil activists, and documentary methods (from the novel), organized in the form of two major narratives. HarandiNeighbourhood is an extreme example that clearly illustrates the relationship between social issues and urban poverty, and for this reason, it has been selected as an example. Findings indicate very low social monitoring, lack of ownership of space, lack of social ties between residents of the neighborhood and other communities, provision of grounds for legislation and regulation, the formation of symbolic territories by the affected groups, weak support of the government towards the communities living in the neighborhood, socialization among some small groups and high social exclusion. Accordingly, the interpenetration of these factors with urban spaces at the district, requires that social policy be sensitive to the socio-economic-political context and take into account the conditions of all the groups, that through quantitative and up-down approaches will not be possible.

The point of shared urban planning and social justice in the city is distributive justice. Considering the two criteria, the accessibility and spatial distribution of services is the basis for the fair distribution of urban services. Therefore, the aim of this study is to analyze the spatial equilibrium of access to urban services in Eghlid. The research method is descriptive-analytic. Data were gathered using a survey method and a questionnaire. Citizens of neighborhoods in Euclid are the statistical population of the research. The sample size was determined using the Cochran formula 381. For data analysis, one sample T test, Friedman test, Spearman correlation coefficient, and VIKOR and AHP technique were used. The results of the study showed that access to services in Eghlid based on single sample t test has a significant difference. According to the Vikor technique, the Husseinabad neighborhood has the most access to urban services. According to Spearman's correlation coefficient, there is a significant and direct relationship between access to services and quality of life. However, based on this coefficient, there is no significant relationship between access to services and the population in Eghlid. According to the results of the Friedman test, the Elyassan neighborhood has the highest level of quality of life. In sum, the results indicate that the spatial equilibrium in access to urban services in Eghlid is not realized.
