Islam has always commanded its followers to acquire material (acceptable and legitimate) gifts. This study was conducted to investigate the religiosity and economic success of the wealthy in Tehran. The approach of Weber, Rodinson and Jamo has been used as a theoretical approach. The study population is all wealthy people living in Tehran. The sampling method was snowball. The data collection tool was in-depth individual interviews. A sample size of 15 people was selected, which was possible based on theoretical saturation criteria. The collected data were analyzed using content analysis coding. Based on this, 524 open and primary codes, 52 sub-categories and 8 main categories were extracted, which we classified into two categories of definite and fixed categories and relative and sensitive categories. The findings show that the studied religious people express their religiosity in "Wafiq" meaning adherence to religion, economy and social man, denial of symbolic self-egalitarianism, network support, understanding of position (definite categories), network identity ، Poverty, voluntary restraint, continuous evaluation / performance of activities (relative and sensitive categories) and therefore reproduce their economic success within the framework of a kind of benevolent rationality. The results show that religious people, by rejecting cost / utilitarian relations and avoiding economic man, manifest themselves as a kind of religious / social man whose criterion is benevolent rationality and bill of choice.

Informal employment is one of the most important sectors in Iran's economy, which is strongly associated with social exclusion; when women enter the labor market, informal employment is the most important option for them. The aim of the present study is to understand the mechanisms of deprivation of informal employment and how workers get out of this situation. The research method is of qualitative type using the grounded theory method. The study population is informal female workers in Tehran province who have been selected through a targeted sampling of 32 people to participate. The data collection technique is an in-depth and semi-structured interview. The theoretical coding method has been used to analyze the data. The research findings show that informal employment is a survival-type mechanism in which Women with empty capital and experience of power shortages in the legal, economic, social, and psychological quadrants (Inadequacy of formalization empowerment) enter this area, stay in it or leave it, On the other hand, workers in the informalization cycle are in one of the stages of forecasting, awareness, activism, regression, and liberation. According to the research, the empowerment model of formalization is one of the mechanisms that help workers in the formalization process and more access to the social protection floor.

From the perspective of historical sociology, this article discusses Truman’s Principle Four, which was introduced as one of America's most famous programs to curb communism in Europe. According to Principle Four, US aid came in two forms: "first, to stabilize the economy to prevent the growth of communism, and second, to help the American economy by enabling Europeans to buy American goods; which soon spread to other countries exposed to the Iron Curtain. The purpose of compiling this article is to study the historical conditions of principle four and its effects in Iran based on development theories. Development theories can be divided into three groups: dependency, globalization, and modernization. Modernization theorists, meanwhile, argued that in order to create sustainable and spontaneous economic growth in the Third World, Third World countries would have to experience the transition from traditional to modern society that developed countries had already experienced. He saw the fundamental obstacles to modernization in the traditional cultural institutions and values of Third World countries, which are at odds with the growth and development of the economy and industrialization. The short-term goal of Principle Four was to prevent the penetration of communism in Europe and countries sensitive to the United States, which it was able to achieve, but with special long-term railroads, it was also able to achieve the goals that the US.
