The results of various theories and actions related to the development of this type of technology in the city, provide a lot of evidence about the inconsistent effects of information and communication technologies on urban space and place in the context of cities. Therefore, in order to find the nature and direction of changes due to the development of these technologies in the city, the main question of the present article is to find the components affecting the development of these types of technologies and determine their development process. The main purpose of this study was to identify the factors and components affecting the relationship and how information and communication technology affects the city and urban space and place and to find their relationship with the categories extracted from the theoretical literature in order to determine the urban policy trajectory. The research based on the qualitative method of interviewing elites with 15 specialists and university professors in the fields of urban planning, sociology, transportation and urban geography until theoretical saturation has been conducted in a semi-structured manner, based on a questionnaire designed in the form of 15 open-ended questions. Findings show that based on 6 main categories (value of physical space, new concept of time and distance, optimal technology-based urban development, freedom of activities from the spatial component, replacement of face-to-face activities, favorable urban traffic), 4 dimensions (social, political-economic , Physical and infrastructural), 36 main components and 121 sub-components were extracted, studied, refined and classified in the form of two characteristics of reinforcement (64 components) and limiting (57 components). Accordingly, the policy resulting from these two approaches, the urban planning system undergoes a fundamental change and transformation, and certainly affects the urban management and planning system of Iranian cities. Therefore, the present study tries to present effective factors, components and policies in the two directions of deterrence and propulsion in the form of conceptual matrices.

This study aims to investigate the quiddity of an Islamic city and the urban planning needs based on it. The research data is qualitative and in the data collection, the library method has been used. Content analysis and meta-analysis methods have been used in the analysis of the findings. The results of the research indicate that after the documentary studies, the studies conducted in the Islamic city so far can be classified into four main categories: The physical aspect of the Islamic city, the social nature of the Islamic city, the governance and management of the Islamic city and the relation of philosophy of Mulla Sadra and the justice aspect of the Islamic city. Secondary concepts of the physical dimension include mosque-orientation, introversion, neighborhood- orientation, and naturalism, which include 11 primary concepts and 50 primary codes. Secondary concepts of social nature include social security, civic ethics, social supervision, social participation, social justice, social duties, strong social interactions, neighborhood, which includes 7 concepts and 50 primary codes. Secondary concepts of governance and management include divine sovereignty, Islamic management and economic prosperity, which includes 6 concepts and 28 primary codes. Secondary concepts of Mulla Sadra's Islamic philosophy and social justice include utopia policies and leadership, citizen participation, utopian justice, and physical dimensions, which include 4 concepts and 9 primary codes. The results of the analyzes show that none of the mentioned discussion groups can explain the nature and meaning of the Islamic city in a testable way for various possibilities of place and time, lonely. The Islamic city does not have an absolute nature and has a relative nature. Based on justice, cities can move towards becoming more Islamic during their degrees of perfection.

Due to the interdisciplinary nature of urbanism, it seems necessary to use related sciences to the cognitive and perceptual structures of the individual to explain the process of meaning development in urban. Objectives: In response to the question, " What is the cognitive-cultural process of meaning formation in urban space and what are its achievements in comparison with other developmental approaches to meaning?", the purpose of this paper is to generalize the application of cognitive science concepts related to cognition of human and environment to the field of environmental studies, including urbanism and reduce the gap in the interdisciplinary theoretical studies of these two fields. Method: The research method in this article is a comparative- analytical method that is done by explaining the position of cognitive-cultural approach in comparison with post-positivist and post-structuralist approaches in the field of urban studies. Result: The cognitive-cultural approach is distinguished from post-positivist and poststructuralist approaches in terms of epistemology and factors of meaning development in urban spaces. Epistemologically, in the cognitive-cultural approach, meaning is reproduced simultaneously at two pervasive levels with cultural mentality and at a specific level with cultural practices. Cognitive-cultural affordances of urban space, cognitive-cultural experience of the individual from urban space and how to be available/accessible in a particular situation are the factors of meaning development in the cognitive-cultural approach. In other words, this approach examines the traces of culture both in the environment and in humans. Conclusion: The proposed cognitive-cultural approach of the research with a multilevel and situational view of meaning, covers the shortcomings of previous approaches in urban studies such as a single-level view of meaning and introduces urbanism as situational cultural knowledge.

From this perspective, in the urban study of space, as a problematic concept, two categories of literature of (social) production and (cultural) consumption of space can be distinguished, which seems to have been developed most of all under the two disciplines of cultural studies and political economy. Also, the public space, which is at the center of urban design studies, has been mixed with a kind of critical understanding in recent years. This is where the interdisciplinary nature of urban design has forced it to pay attention to the literature of production and consumption of space for a deeper understanding of the transformation of public spaces in the midst of the conflict between the forces of power and the people. Objectives: This article aimed to develop critical understanding of public space, especially under the knowledge of urban design, by combining the two theoretical concepts of social production and cultural consumption of space. Method: This theoretical essay tries to present a legible picture of the position of urban public spaces in a theoretical frame that stemmed from examining a hierarchy from philosophical roots to tangible concepts derived from the above two concepts. Result: The findings show how the concepts considered in the three categories of literature (social production of space, cultural consumption and critical studies of urban design) at three levels of discussion (paradigmatic, theoretical and objective). Conclusion: The realm of everyday life can be understood as the confluence of the two concepts of cultural consumption and social production of space; which a visible part of it is occuring in public spaces as the field of action of urban design and the constant crystallization of production and consumption flows. In this position, everyday can be read through the concept of homogenization of space, where the upstream forces of abstract production in dialectics with downstream forces of objective consumption are evolving contemporary urban spaces.

On the other hand, lack of attention to the social dimension of vitality is observed in most studies. This study seeks to identify the most important indicators of sociability to achieve vitality in Valiasr St., Tehran from the perspective of experts and street users. Objectives: The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between the two concepts of sociability and vitality in Valiasr Street, Tehran to use the results in urban public space planning. Method: In this regard, a comparative analysis is performed based on the views of experts on Valiasr Street and the users of this street. By adopting a combined approach with a sequential exploratory research design and using three methods of unstructured interview, observation committee and field observation, research data were collected. Result: A total of 7 main criteria were identified by experts, but 3 of these 7 criteria were not approved by users. The results were then discussed in two areas. First, it was found that, contrary to experts' views, criteria that are more collectivist are less preferred by users. There were also fundamental differences in the views of the two groups. So that the experts had a scientific but idealistic attitude towards the issues and issues of public spaces. While users' point of view is a simple, minimal but realistic view of their preferences and desires from a public space, which is based on their lived experience of public spaces. Conclusion: Finally, the realization of the sociability of public spaces depended on a series of requirements and underlying conditions that can be sought in the field of macro-political, institutional and social structures.

Urban crime and violence are factors that undermine security in cities. Urban violence is one of the social harms that can be examined to determine the social health status in a city. Goal : The purpose of this study is investigation of relationship between urban quality of life and urban defenseless spaces where have tendency to urban violence. Method : in this research, descriptive-analytical method, documentary methods and questionnaire tools were used for collecting data. The statistical population of the study consists of 18-35 year elderly people in Rasht. This group of population include 224203 people. So sample size is calculated 384 people by Cochran's formula and multi-zone cluster sampling method. The concept of quality of urban life was assessed using Rabbani Khorasgani and Kianpour (2007) research, urban defenseless space was assessed using Mansouri, Ghanimati and Nafar (2017) and urban violence was assessed using Mohseni, Mikaeli and Talibpour (2016) research questionnaires. Data were analyzed using SPSS and Amos software and Pearson correlation tests and structural equation modeling. Results : There is a significant negative correlation between urban life and urban violence and its quality (social line, psychological violence, violence and economic behavior). But there is a positive correlation between urban defenseless spaces and urban violence and its behavior (social violence, psychological violence, violence and economic violence). Conclusion : Based on the results obtained from structural models, the quality of urban life has an effect of -0.18 on urban violence. It means when the quality of urban life increases, the tendency to urban violence decreases. Also, the effect of urban defenseless spaces on the tendency to urban violence is equal to 0.28. It means when access to vulnerable urban space increases, the tendency of young people to engage in urban violence increases.
