This paper examined the role of culture and cultural planning in urban development to increase social security. Today, the role of culture has become more tangled in planning, especially urban and regional planning, and urban and regional planners have recognized this necessity and they have to put culture in their workplaces, so any kind of Urban and regional planning should put culture and cultural identity in the agenda. Culture plays a major role as a major factor in planning for the future, with a lack of attention to it in planning a lot of negative impacts.The result of the research shows that the urban planning and management method must make changes, and instead of purely quantitative and statistical methods, and taking into account purely economic and political components, qualitative methods are used, and in Planning for the city and region are cultural components (needs, values and norms of the people, cultural industries, etc.). Data collection is based on a library and documentary study and is descriptive-analytic.

The quantitative development of higher education depends on the policies adopted by different governments. But social demand can disrupt these policies. Increasing number of universities and uneven development of higher education influenced by global developments such as mass becoming one of the factors affecting the social demand of the population for the development of higher education in the country. The purpose of this article is to explore the impact of Iranian higher education development policies on social demand and the causes of social demand for higher education in the country.For this purpose, qualitative method was used. At the data gathering stage, firstly, a documentary study of the policies and laws of the country in the field of higher education policies was carried out, and in the other part of the research, a semi-structured interview was conducted with 30 higher education informants and stakeholders.The findings of the present study indicate that population growth and the growth of basic literacy rates in the country over the past decades, on the one hand, and social justice and the public's awareness of the right to know on the other have been the basis for their social demand.Social demand has led to the lack of territorial planning in the field of higher education and thus to the inadvertent establishment of educational centers, the high unemployment of university graduates and the consequence of passive policies in the field of higher education, and education has been deprived of quality.Therefore, given the social demand of higher education in Iran, which is rooted in the acquisition of cultural status, the causal link between higher education and employment is not conceivable.

Residential policy-making is one of the critical subject areas of urban policy-making. Due to the strong social aspect of housing and its tremendous effects on macro- and micro-economy, the provision of housing is within the obligations of the public sector. The public policy-making that ignores housing as a social right, culminates in urban spatial inequality. The housing problem in Tehran, which is both a part of an inclusive national problem and an urban problem of this metropolis, has given rise to spatial inequality. Understanding the impact of urban policies and tracking the causes of the emergence of residential inequality enables policy-making to address and tackle this planning problem. This paper focuses on the process and the content of the influential sectoral and integrated spatial residential policies implemented in Tehran to explore the effects of various policies on spatial inequality.To achieve this purpose, a dual descriptive-analytical path, based on the deductive research strategy, is designed. Utilizing a combined comparative and longitudinal analysis of the housing condition and thematic content analysis of policies in temporal-politically defined periods, and based on the criteria defined in the first section of this article, we explored the spatial inequality in Tehran.Our findings indicate a great distance concerning the agendas of these policies and a manner of policy-making that could effectively encounter inequality as a complex -- though avoidable -- urban problem of Tehran. This paper suggests an approach and framework for residential policy-making that is able enough to deal with the problem of spatial inequality in Tehran in general and especially in its housing structure.

Non-commitment to work is important social problem in Iran. In this paper, we have investigated the relationship between occupational capital and work commitment. The methodology is descriptive and correlational. This article examines the relationship with employees in eight governmental organizations in Tehran, 78 males and 48 females were interviewed. To measure the validity and reliability of the index, internal correlation, Cronbach's alpha coefficient and KMO have been used; Cronbach's alpha coefficient is 0.80 of the work capital and 0.70 of the job commitment.The average employee's work commitment in the surveyed organizations is 3.42 of 6 and the average of occupational capital is 3.39 of 6. The correlation between work commitment and occupational capital(r = 0.41), economic capital(r = 0.17), political capital(r = 0.41), social capital(r = 0.38) and cultural capital is(r = 0.29). The variables in the study explained 66% of the variance of the work commitment.When correlation between occupational capital and work commitment was examined in two groups with high and low alienation of work and capital distribution, was found this correlation to be stronger in organizations with more organizational justice. And between those who have had less alienation of work are stronger than others.

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.

Family businesses around the world have a significant share of employment and economic output, and in rural areas, children make up a significant percentage of the agricultural and domestic labor force. Therefore, the present study aimed at reviewing experiences of rural children from work. In terms of nature, the research is quantitative, and in terms of method, it is descriptive-analytical. The main tool of this research is questionnaire which the reliability of questionnaires was evaluated by Cronbach's alpha method (0.881). SPSS software was used for data analysis. The results of this study indicate that factors such as the reason of work, type of work, number of days and hours of work and the age of children, affect their work experience. And this impact, given the nature of child labor in rural areas and the proportion of type, hours and days of work with rural child age, has been studied to improve the physical, mental, and educational health of rural children. Therefore, these children have a positive attitude, feeling and experience towards work and consider working as a factor to improve their skills and abilities.

Quality of life is a concept that has been used in the lives of the people of the town and village. This article sought to investigate the quality of life in villages that are near a far from city in central district of Kermanshah. This is a quantitative-survey research that uses questionnaire to collect information. The population size is 300 people (150 inhabitants of villages under radius of 15 km distance from Kermanshah and 150 inhabitants of villages with radius of more than 15 km radius of Kermanshah). Selection of villages was based on simple random sampling (total of 20 villages) and sampling in each village was based on systematic random sampling method. The reliability of the study was confirmed by Cochran's formula of 0.73 and the validity of the research was confirmed by geography and social sciences experts. The test used was Friedman. Research findings show that the quality of life in rural areas near the city is better than rural areas far from the city. This was confirmed by the Friedman test. There is not much difference in job diversity and quality of life earnings and this difference is more in infrastructure and social components.
