Abstract:
This article studies the architectural design and cultural significance of Villa Namazee, a modernist building designed by Italian architect Gio Ponti in Tehran. The study explores how the building, once a symbol of modernity and progress, has been neglected, delisted from the national heritage, and fallen into disrepair. Focusing primarily on the case of Villa Namazee in Tehran, Iran, as an example of Ponti’s projects in the Middle Eastern context, the second part of this paper aims to reconsider and re-narrate Gio Ponti’s project in Tehran. In this context, the article sheds light on the nationally and internationally prominent concepts, ideas, collaborations, and design elements of Gio Ponti’s project in Tehran. The paper argues for reevaluating our understanding of heritage and recognizing the importance of preserving modern architectural masterpieces such as Villa Namazee.

Abstract:
Locating modernity’s unfinished project in the historical matrix of Iran, Louis Kahn’s Silent Space of Critique in Tehran, 1973–74 examines Louis Kahn’s master plan for a new civic center in Tehran. The 1970s witnessed a period of contention between political and cultural visions of modernity in Iran: as the shah’s state fabricated progress through a series of development plans, the queen’s reformist second court sponsored cultural and preservationist projects. This strife over modernity in Iran was reflected in Kahn’s design as form, space, and program. Shima Mohajeri shows that Kahn’s layout for a modern public space in Tehran concerned the development of an ethical attitude toward architectural modernity in a non-Western context as well as constituted a silent resistance to Iran’s sociopolitical reality and its spaces of representation.

Abstract:
This study examines the impact of contraceptive use on women’s educational advancement as an indicator of female empowerment, using retrospective data from the 2009 Tehran Fertility Survey. The results show that 15 per cent of married women continued their education after marriage. Also, women using modern contraceptives before a first birth were more likely to experience a 1–2-year increase in education level after marriage, controlling for other factors. Recent cohorts were more likely to continue their education after marriage, especially those who used modern vs. traditional contraceptives. The findings clearly indicate that family planning use after marriage enables women to advance their education by freeing them from reproductive activities.

Abstract:
To report history in the making, Michel Foucault travelled to Tehran in 1978.He had a commission from Corriere della sera, the prestigious Italian newspaper,to write a series of articles about the unfolding revolutionary process.He landed in Tehran two days after “Black Friday,” during which the armywas believed to have massacred 5,000 people. Foucault was impressed by thecourage of the undeterred protestors who kept pouring into the streets in defiance of a powerful regime. These articles, sympathetic to the movement andits leading force, Shi’a Islam, received a scornful response from his secularFrench colleagues. He was accused of being anti-modern, nihilistic, ignorant,and a man beguiled by a revolutionary effervescence.After the establishment of the Islamic Republic and the consequent bloodybattles leading to the concentration of power in the hands of the militant religiousrevolutionaries, Foucault’s detractors put concerted public pressure uponhim to repent for his “mistaken” judgments. This major “French” controversyfailed, however, to attract much attention in English-speaking circles until theappearance of Janet Afary and Kevin Anderson’s Foucault and Iranian Revolution:Gender and Seduction of Islamism (University of Chicago Press:2005). Highly critical of Foucault’s “romantic” depiction of the revolutionarymovement, these two authors also found in his reports an occasion to attackhis early, post-structuralist writings, interpreting them as anti-modern. Thebook’s overt critique of Foucault rested upon the intellectual pillar of the Enlightenmentdiscourse, with its teleological and secularist approach to history.Needless to say, Afary and Anderson were also critical of Islam’s public role,not only in the revolution but also beyond ...

Despite the difficult international situation, philologists from Iran, Russia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Tajikistan, Tunisia, Georgia, Ukraine, China, Bulgaria took part in the conference. Representatives of Russian universities and research centers from Moscow, St. Petersburg, Minsk together with scientists from 10 Iranian universities formed the core of the conference. Russian scientists are attracted by the high scientific level of the forum, the interest of Iranian colleagues in Russian culture, the success of students in learning the Russian language, a cultural program that allows to get acquainted with the cultural treasures of ancient Persia and, most importantly, the tradition of Russian-Iranian cooperation. The expanding ties between Iran and Russia have made the Russian language significant in university teaching in Iran. It has been conducted for 90 years, since the foundation of the University of Tehran in 1934. Today, Russian language and literature departments have been established in 15 Iranian universities, where about 270 students begin their studies every year. The Russian Language and Literature Association was established in 2012 on the initiative of professors of the Tehran University Janolah Karimi-Motakhhar and Marzieh Yahyapur. Its activities enjoy great respect and full support among Russian scientists: 28 literary scholars and 72 linguists are represented in the collection of abstracts of scientific reports published by the Tehran University by the beginning of the conference. The reports delivered at the conference focused primarily on the topical problems of learning the Russian language in Iran and a selection of the reports will be published in The Research Journal of Russian Language and Literature published by IARLL, is an only scientific peer–reviewed journal in Russian in Iran.

Abstract:
This paper intends to underline the importance of historic public spaces as the deposits of collective memories, proposing the critical analysis, reinterpretation, and systematization of relevant informative historical layers as a counter model to the globalizing tendencies and their fast pace of transformation. Baharestanis a historic square located in the northeast of Tehran?s Historic Center, and it is the home to Iran?s Parliament and the Ministry of Culture. It makes the square significant at the national level, especially due to its location surrounded by several exquiste historical heritage buildings. However, following the decline of Tehran?s historic center, Baharestan lost its socio-cultural vitality and spatial quality, hosting urban functions mainly heterogeneous to its identity, and eventually turning into a traffic node. Through the comparative study of numerous historical documents, and adapting the concept of ?palimpsest?, Baharestan Square has been interpreted as the assemblage of different city layers in relation to the environmental and socio-political narratives of the city. The shift from one layer to another intends to reflect some of the lost memories of Tehran and its collective identity in the transition from traditional to modern society. Later on, the paper argues how this palimpsest quality and co-evolution of those plural layers and narratives in Baharestan demonstrate this symbolic square as a ?catalytic social infrastructure?, giving Tehran an opportunity to overcome the challenge of ?social amnesia? and promoting its civic culture and cohesion.

The article provides an ethnographic study of the lives of the ‘dangerous class’ of drug users based on fieldwork carried out among different drug using ‘communities’ in Tehran between 2012 and 2016. The primary objective is to articulate the presence of this category within modern Iran, its uses and its abuses in relation to the political. What drives the narration is not only the account of this lumpen, plebeian group vis à vis the state, but also the way power has affected their agency, their capacity to be present in the city, and how capital/power and the dangerous/lumpen life come to terms, to conflict, and to the production of new situations which affect urban life.

AbstractThis photo essay provides a visual archive of Parsi philanthropic efforts toward the Iranian Zoroastrian communities of Yazd, Kerman, and Tehran during the 1930s. The essay reproduces a collection of photographs from a photo album produced by the Iranian Zoroastrian Anjoman (est. 1918) for the benefit of Parsi audiences in Bombay. These photographs were taken and compiled by administrators of the Parsi-funded charities in order to demonstrate to Bombay-based Parsi benefactors how their charity efforts were being used inside Iran. The essay also discusses the importance of including visual archival material as part of the social and cultural history of modern Iran, as well as the unique sets of challenges that such archival preservation represents.

Abstract:
The invasion and succession in cities is a phenomenon that affects the functions of thebazaar. Heavy traffic in downtown areas, air pollution in cities, the transformation of thestructure of economic activities, the flow of immigrants on the market, the transfer of certainfunctions of the bazaar to commercial companies and etc all this has created problems forthe bazaar. In the present decades, "Bazaar" has faced a new and distinguishable rival in Iran.Every day "Shopping Centers" are spreading all over regions in Iranian cities. They are as asymbol of the extension of consumerism and the occurrence of a consumer society andglobalization. These places represent youth subcultures and cultural challenges against thehegemony at national level. Will the bazaar tolerate and survive these changes, or has italready been eliminated from the urban cycle? Will it coexist with this urban monument orwill it be eliminated?

Abstract:
The Tehran Museum of Contemporary Art (TMoCA) is an art museum located next to Laleh Park, in Tehran, Iran. The museum houses a large collection of modern and contemporary Iranian art, as well as one of the most valued collections of modern Western art outside Europe and North America, mostly dating from the late nineteenth to the mid-twentieth century. In 1977, having purchased large quantities of art during Iran’s 1970s oil boom, the European-educated Iranian Empress Farah Pahlavi inaugurated TMoCA. The Iranian architect Kamran Diba designed the museum, incorporating elements of traditional Persian architecture into a structure that many consider to be a piece of contemporary art itself. The inauguration of TMoCA prior to the 1979 Iranian Revolution exemplified Mohammad Reza Pahlavi’s secular monarchy and symbolised a common bond between Iran and the West.

Abstract:
It focuses on the decades of 1960s and 1970s and explores the concept of neo-traditional art in Iran in this period. Along with the postcolonial Middle East, at an intellectual level, the neo-traditionalists aimed to create a synthesised form of modern art that fused past pictorial heritage with the modern aesthetic language of art. Without ignoring the artists’ distinct self-referential individualism, the chapter examines how this notion was realised within and in correspondence with Iran’s mid-twentieth century socio-cultural practices. Crucial debates over the creation of a balance between the two polarities of modernism and cultural authenticity that had started in the earlier decades reached to a peak in the 1960s and resulted in the creation of the most acclaimed neo-traditionalist movement, the Saqqā-khāneh tendency. Bringing together both historical facts and analytical and critical accounts, the chapter also examines other elements that may have contributed to the creation and promotion of this movement, namely the influence of the official culture (already materialised through the Tehran biennials and the Shiraz Arts Festivals) and market interests.

Abstract:
Abstract In January 1978, Tehran experienced a “revolutionary upswing.” Protesters flooded the streets day after day in mass demonstrations against Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, the Iranian monarch, hated by many of his subjects for the repressiveness of his regime and for his close alliance with the West. A year after the protests began, the political fallout for the West—and the economic cost to Western companies—would be immense. Trade between Iran and the United States, valued at $5.7 billion in 1977, would be effectively wiped out. A new government would expropriate vast amounts of U.S. and other foreign-owned property. These companies would recoup some of the losses years later in an international claims tribunal, but a combination of Iranian hostility toward America and U.S. embargoes would guarantee a loss of potential revenue for these firms for decades to come. The shah would be gone; Iran would be ruled by a theocracy hostile to the West. The Islamic revolution and the regional political realignment it provoked are still very much with us. After the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor and the September 11 terrorist attacks, the shah’s overthrow in 1979 may well represent modern America’s greatest intelligence failure.

A set of features are shared by traditional cities where dominated by Islam religion. The notion of “Islamic city”, often criticised for its Eurocentric nature, has guided most studies of these traditional cities. The modernisation process in so-called Islamic cities is crucial due to its serious impacts on the traditional morphology and transformation of their urban structure. We, thus, need more holistic and integrated understanding about changes of these cities derives from the modernisation process. In order to explore the broad and wide-spread changes due to modernisation process in the traditional cities in Muslim world, it is more enlightening if we study second order cities, rather than studying the transformations of major capitals such as Cairo, Istanbul or Teheran, where interventions are goal to approach a more exceptional and rhetorical characters. Therefore, the aim of this paper is to study the historic core of Kermanshah city, to understand the link between urban transformations and social due to modernisation process by tracing it historically. We will focus, particularly, on studying the stages of urban transformation and changes of urban morphology as well as conflict and differences between traditional urban features with the modern ones. For example, we are interested in understanding how traditional morphology and structure of residential and commercial zone are affected by the opening of new and wide boulevards in course of modernisation process, and how these changes influence everyday people life.
