Abstract Policy-making is in practice a systematic activity that involves a set of decisions, plans, and practices. Shortages, contradictions or weakness in laws in responding to social issues often leads policymakers to formulate or reform social policies in the form of bills / plans. Policy-making is in practice a discipline that involves a set of decisions, plans, and practices. Legal vacuum, conflict or legal impediment in responding to social issues often leads policymakers to formulate or reform social policies in the form of bills / plans. In this context. Time duration (between becoming problematic and reaction to) is important. Extending this gap can exacerbate the problem or even cause a new issue/ issues, so that the embedded policy measures do not work in the past. Asking a question about the "state of time" in the reality of social policy (focusing on plans / bills) required the present study. To examine the issue empirically and provide appropriate evidence on the research subject; the method of analyzing documents and mixed of qualitative and quantitative techniques were applied. Sampling method was purposeful. The plans and bills related to social policy in 8th and 9th Parliaments, and documents that have information about the date and outcome of their review (from the beginning to the notification). The results show that the average time between receipt and approval of plans and bills (irrespective of residual or deregulated items) has been around 22 to 25 months Which the most bureaucratic bills have been in the area of justice and the most time-consuming one has not been acted yet from around 12 years ago. Also the research data does not show a logical and meaningful relationship between proximity to election time and the rejection or approval of plans and bills in the policy domain. Besides that thepatterns of approvals are not endorsed separately from the various years of life of each parliament. Generally, the problem of social phenomena in the legislature has not been dominant in parliament and the patterns of approvals are not endorsed separately from the various years of life of each parliament. Finally the findings indicate that the process of social policy through the parliament is very time consuming; on the other hand, it generally does not follow a timely response to social problems. Hence from this perspective, it seems that the social policy process in the parliament needs to be reviewed and improved. Keywords: Social Policy, Parliament, Bills, Time, Social Problem

For this purpose, 14 research studies conducted between 2011 and 2016 about the relationship between religiosity and lifestyle, published in academic journals, were selected for review. Selected research has been carried out in a survey method by using questionnaire in different statistical populations and based on reliable scales. In the first step, the evaluation of selected research, homogeneity assumptions and dissemination error were examined; accordingly, the findings indicated the heterogeneity of the effect sizes and the non-bias of the published studies.

The results showed that the effect size or the effect of religiosity on lifestyle is equal to 0.314, which is moderately evaluated according to Cohen's interpretation system. Also, women's religiosity towards men, young people is more influential on their lifestyle than adults and people with higher education and higher than those with lower or upper secondary education.

The Impact of Religious Places on the Feeling of Safety Among Women Case Study: Imamzade Yahya in Sari Golamreza Latifi[1] , Iman Ghalandarian[2] , Sediqeh Sargazi[3] Received: 10/12/2016 Accepted: 6/1/2018 Abstract Security and safety are considered as one of the principles of designing urban spaces for planners and urban planners. The lack of security in the open spaces of the cities reduces the vitality and availability of space. In this regard, women are more vulnerable than men, in other words, feel less secure in more places and have a diminutive presence. In this research, Imamzadeh Yahya Square in the city of Sari has been considered as a public space and the construction of Emamzadeh as one of the religious places has been measured in terms of security feeling. The research method is a quantitative. The research data was collected through a survey with a sample size of 96 people, field studies, interviews and questionnaire. In order to determine the level of women's sense of security in this urban environment, the religious place was seen as an independent variable and the sense of security with reagents such as readability, vitality, etc has been investigated as a dependent variable. The findings indicate that more than half of the women consider the Emamzadeh's tomb effective in their sense of security. According to research hypotheses, there is a direct relation between the existence of the emamzadeh (religious places) in the city and the sense of security.

Estimating the Inequality Indecies in Urban and Rural Areas in Iranian Provinces: During the five-year Development Plans Saeid Ebrahimi[1] , Seyed Kamal Sadeghi[2] , Mohamad Bagher Beheshti[3] Reza Ranjpour[4] Received: 17/6/2017 Accepted: 26/11/2017 Abstract This study seeks to measure income inequality among provinces of Iran in urban and rural areas during five socio-economic, and cultural development plan by using household survey data from 1990-2015, that issue by Statistical Centre of Iran, Gini coefficient, Theil index, Atkinson index and Sen Welfare indecies are calculated for the whole country as well as all provinces. Gini, Theil and Atkinson inequality index presented the Compatible results and confirm each other. Inequality indices over the period 1990 to 2015 does not have deterministic trend. But generally has a downward trend that, suggests improving income distribution in both urban and rural area. Most reduce of inequalities in urban areas are related to the provinces of Azarbayjan-Ghrby, Ilam, Bushehr, Kermanshah and Zanjan, and in rural areas of Semnan, Yazd and Hormozgan . On the other hand, welfare indicator over the past decade for the whole country as well as all provinces is dropped during five-year development plans, inequality in urban and rural areas has been decreasing, although at this time the reduction of inequality is higher in rural areas. The Second Development Plan had less success in reducing inequality indices but the fifth development plan in this regard has been the most successful program. Sen Index shows that in the past decade, decreasing inequality does not leading to an increase in household welfare. Because of changes in price index for goods and services in urban and rural and negative growth of average household spending due impose heavy costs on the economy, which lead to extend the poor. Hence in interpreting of the coefficients of inequality, all its aspects should be considered in order to decision -making.

Analytical and Applied Concepts of Sociology in Explaining and Training Entrepreneurship Hamzeh Nozari[1] Received: 8/11/2018 Accepted: 13/2/2018 Abstract Sociology has developed a different approach to psychology and economics in the field of entrepreneurship and has played an important role in creating and expanding entrepreneurial research, in particular issues such as ethnic entrepreneurship, network analysis of opportunities, organizational entrepreneurship, and entrepreneurship based on gender and work experience. In addition, theories and sociological analysis can be used for instructions on how to start a business. In addition to answering the question “why”, entrepreneurial sociology answers “How”question of entrepreneurship. This article, by examining sociological approaches and theories and analyzing the content of research on sociology of entrepreneurship in Iran, shows that from theories and analyzes of sociology, practical concepts can be derived for the training of future business owners. In other words, in the analysis and explanations of sociology of entrepreneurship, there are concepts such as social networking and business opportunities, teamwork and marketing which are practical and important in teaching and training entrepreneurship and future entrepreneurs. In addition, the findings show that sociological research on entrepreneurship in Iran is growing in terms of analytical concepts, but has not succeeded in extracting practical and applied concepts for entrepreneurship education.
