1 - Contemplation on Semiotics of Qazvin Houses Entrance of During the Qajar Era from Aspects Ferdinand de Saussure, Charles Sanders Peirce and Umberto Eco

By broad and multilateral studying upon objects in different cultural and social fields, it can be considered as an efficient factor (effect) in architecture and impressive agents in creating spaces. This research, investigates the reasons and meaning of the factors (effects) which were used in the entrance of Qajar's houses of Qazvin City from view of semiotics, and by considering “Ferdinand de Saussure”, “Charles Sanders Peirce” and “Umberto Eco” points of view. The theory is that in researching every detail of these entrances with Semiological view, whatever that interpreted as a sign is a result of human's thoughts (mind) and also has been impressed by cultural and social structures. However, the main part of this research is mostly about objective (visual) factors (effects) but as the aforementioned theory suggests, these visual factors (effects) are also made by following the thoughts (mind). In this research it is decided to study the entrance of Qajar's houses of Qazvin City by using semiotics (semiology) to analyze these areas more deeply than what was thinking about them- that these areas are just a linking part of the houses. The research also wants to find and analyze the factors (effects) among cultural and social fields, which can be interpreted as signs. As it can be understood from research's title and its theory, necessity of meaning interpretation and social analysis as the main base have an important role, so by considering them, the research method is qualitative and in analyzing, it is supreme, comparative and descriptive. Semiological analysis were carried out in accordance with the views of “Saussure”, “Peirce”, and “Eco”. Therefore, the cause-and-effect relationships of signifier and signified were discussed in Saussure’s perspective. Then, the designatum, Sign, interpretant, and three types of semiotics (index, symbol, and icon) were discussed in “Peirce’s” point of view. Finally, the centrality of culture was analyzed in the formation of symbols in accordance with Eco’s view. In addition to analyzing the functional and conceptual causes of spatial elements of the entrance symbolically, the research results indicated the most effective factors in the analysis of signs in reference to subjective and conceptual components. Such components resulted in cultural, social, religious, and behavioral structures by considering the physical features leading to a meaningful form. Accordingly, the researchers managed to determine the philosophical method of semiotics in the legibility of architectural elements by preserving the nature of the method. The aforesaid approach described the conventional relationship between physical forms and the elements of entrance space comprehensively in addition to their applications. It also justified those entrance symbols which were merely decorative and useless, due to the lack of a specific functionality, in the legibility of deep semantic strata in reference to sociocultural structures. In interaction with the views of theorists, the legibility of entrance space symbols was provided in a more detailed context in relation to the residents and users of space in addition to behavioral and religious patterns affecting the creation of a meaningful physical for such elements.

Changes in the physical, socio-cultural, and natural environment are inevitable in the process of urban development. These changes are the result of planning through development plans or they happen without any planning. Obviously, changes that are along with the past are optimized and changes that are discontinuous with it are not. Trend of changes in recent decades shows that natural values and sometimes historical and heritage values have been overlooked. The disappearance of these values, results in destroying the identity of cities.Citizens take more responsibility to their urban environment. Their behavior in the urban environment that called "environmental behavior" may seem small, but when it is viewed as a whole, shows its importance. Citizens don't only have the right of contributing to improve the urban environment but also have the duty of protecting different values in cities. Citizens should recognize their duties and know that they should raise their awareness of the urban problems, being sensitive and concern for the problems, enhance their skills to decrease these problems, and participate in solving these problems, to create environmental citizenship behavior.Thus, in this paper, after reviewing the existing literature in the field of environmental behavior, the most important contexts and factors of environmental behavior have been extracted. Environmental behavior of Qazvin's citizens has been reviewed and analyzed also. This city, in recent decades, had faced with considerable development pace and some problems such as, loss of orchards surrounding the city (environmental values) and the loss of historical contexts (historical_ heritage values). So, after evaluating the sensitivity and concerns of Qazvin's citizens about the main changing trends, the level of environmental citizenship behavior is questioned and both the causes and contexts of this behavior are obtained. Total purpose of this study is identification and analysis of contexts of Qazvin citizen's environmental behavior and its methodologies are survey and Correlational. Population of this study is Qazvin citizens that base of Cochran Formula, the number of sample is 233 people. In order to analyze the questions of the questionnaire, one-dimensional square test and to find the correlation between variables, Spearman correlation and Kruskal–Wallis tests are used. The results indicate a low level of environmental citizenship behavior of citizens in Qazvin. The most important factors in this case, are the low level of knowledge, lack of infrastructure, institutional, and legal factors for the occurrence of these behaviors.In fact, among the three actions that are defined in this study as the environmental behavior (including membership in environmental organizations, increase the knowledge on urban environmental issues, and protest to urban environment problems), Qazvin's citizens only study environmental issues, and other behaviors are very low. Accordingly, Citizenship education, codification (according to the Legal rights and criminal rights together), demonstrating the desired behavior or the consequences of inappropriate behavior and providing the contextual factors to outbreak the behavior (especially increase the communications between the public and authorities), are the main suggestions for changing environmental citizenship behavior....

Findings: The results show that the right to habitat comfort has the most impact and right of appropriation has the least impact on satisfaction. Results: Therefore, it can be analyzed as follows: Residents of Qazvin are not satisfied with the quality of urban spaces Measuring this level of dissatisfaction and distributing the level of satisfaction in order to prioritize the improvement of spaces in the city is of great importance in order to increase the level of satisfaction with the right to the city. The least impact has been achieved in terms of the right to produce and develop space, which is clearly due to the lack of awareness of citizens about their rights and how to demand it. It can also be concluded that there is a significant difference between satisfaction with the right to the city in different areas. Manuscript profile -

This issue is more important in a city like Qazvin because the population is always increasing and on the other hand, natural and artificial barriers have limited its expansion in different directions. Because the Infill architecture development takes place within the urban context and in direct connection with society, social participation, meaning the voluntary activities of individuals to enhance their social life, must be considered as a potential at all stages of development. The main purpose of this study is to express the relationship between the above two variables using the correlation research method. After library studies and field research, indicators, components, then, elements for both variables were explained and provide a conceptual model to justify their correlation and accordingly a questionnaire was developed. After distributing the questionnaire, using Cronbach's alpha coefficient, its reliability was determined. Then, using SPSS method, Pearson coefficient equal to 0.830 (which indicates a high and positive correlation of variables), and a significant coefficient equal to 0.000 (which indicates a significant relationship between the two variables), was calculated. The result of this research states that the concept of infill architecture development with the aim of meeting all the needs of users and considering the available facilities, creates trust and increases people's sense of satisfaction and as a result, it expands their sense of cooperation and use of their potential abilities and increases social participation at all stages.Extended AbstractIntroduction: Infill architecture development with regard to development within the area and redevelopment of the area, tries to use its internal potentials (such as being historical) to use unused and worn out lands in the urban context, through the creation or reconstruction of spaces with solutions such as; Create mixed uses and improve the conditions of the urban fabric, save infrastructure and also prevent urban creep. This issue is more important in a city like Qazvin because the population is always increasing and on the other hand, natural and artificial barriers have limited its expansion in different directions.Because the Infill architecture development takes place within the urban context and in direct connection with society, social participation, meaning the voluntary, conscious and creative presence and involvement of people in various activities that can be done in their local organizations, must be considered as a potential at all stages of development. It is noteworthy that during the revitalization of troubled urban contexts, historical contexts are emphasized as the manifestation of economic and social dimensions and the crystallization of urban culture and identity.The main purpose of this study is to express the relationship between the above two variables using the correlation research method. Research question is; How the concept of infill architecture development affects the increase of social participation and The research hypothesis states; It seems that the concept of infill architecture development by increasing the level of user satisfaction and improving the quality of the environment (especially neighborhoods) is effective in increasing the sense of cooperation and using the potential of individuals and increases social participation.Methodology: After library studies, field research, qualitative review and description and analysis of data; Indicators, components, then, elements for both variables were explained and provide a conceptual model to justify their correlation and considering the House of Culture and the Library of Mohammadiyah as a case study, a questionnaire was developed and according to; The number of clients, Cochran's formula and Morgan table, 80 questionnaires were distributed and completed and then, using statistical software and correlation research method, the correlation between variables was investigated. Due to the use of the views of the statistical community and the descriptive nature of the results, we use the survey research method. The assessment tool in this research to collect information is a questionnaire that has been developed according to the elements expressed in the previous sections. The validity of the questions is of a content type. In order to analyze the data, according to the completed questionnaires and using the SPSS method (version 22), we calculated the reliability coefficients of the questionnaire, significance and correlation between variables and determined its direction. Finally, the obtained results are analyzed by inductive reasoning and the hypothesis is examined.Results and discussion: According to calculations, the degree of reliability and Cronbach's alpha coefficient for; The total questions of the questionnaire is 0.944, the variable of infill architecture development is 0.914 and the variable of social participation is 0.917, which indicates the appropriateness and standardization of the questionnaire and the questions asked for the variables.In order to test the hypothesis, according to the answers and using statistical software, the Pearson coefficient and the correlation between the two variables were calculated to be 0.830 that the proximity of the above digit to the number one indicates a high correlation and its positive sign indicates a direct correlation between the variables and also zero (less than 0.05) significance indicates a significant relationship between them.Infill architecture development can be according to the parameters; Promoting the culture of participation with appropriate culture building, strengthen the sense of belonging of the beneficiaries according to the identity of the place, gaining the trust of people by trying to meet the needs of the population, efforts to maintain the desired physical and biological characteristics with respect to the surrounding tissue and promote vitality with flexible design and improve the quality of the environment, increase social cohesion and participation. As in the case study, the creation of a cultural building in one of the historic neighborhoods of the city, by trying to meet the needs of users and holding group activities increases the participation of people in the place.Conclusion: According to the most important data, the concept of infill architecture development by; Utilizing the existing environmental and human potentials, population absorption, increase the self-confidence of local people and their self-sufficiency power, promoting the culture and quality of the environment, attention to the identity and personality of the existing architecture and promoting a sense of belonging, creates trust and a sense of satisfaction and increases social participation in the whole development process. Strategies to achieve the indicators of the mentioned variables according to the specific data; A) Infill architecture development variable: 1- Socio-economic index; Increasing social interactions, benefiting from popular participation, raising society public awareness, generate income for the residents of the neighborhood, provision of municipal services, use of abandoned buildings and spaces, increasing attention to the culture and history of the neighborhood. 2- Functional-operational index; Increasing public service, support for the city's main service areas, restoring prosperity to historical and abandoned textures, reconstruction of dilapidated buildings, increasing the quality of performance among several important buildings. 3- Physical-environmental index; Attention to the height of buildings, harmony with the surrounding tissue, reconstruction of old buildings. B) Social participation variable: 1- Social capital index; Increasing social solidarity, adherence to cultural and social commitments, welcoming personal initiatives, raising awareness and strengthen participation. 2- Index of participatory spaces; Attention to needs, improving the quality of living space, increasing sense of belonging, ability to make changes in space. 3- Index of factors affecting participation; Increasing social cohesion, improving the quality of urban life, welcoming people's ideas, providing individual and collective facilities, increasing emotional dependence, giving identity, attention to the environment. Finally, it is suggested that the participation of individuals in all stages of the development process be used by informing the society about the goals and benefits of the infill architecture development, especially in historical contexts that are prone to achieve to the development goals due to their rich identity.

9 - Explaining the impacts of the rational development of the city on the realization of a slow city (a case study of Qazvin city)
Fatemeh Asadollah Sharifi Seyyed Mohammad Reza Khatibi Jamaleddin SoheiliNowadays, aimless and hasty urban development is emerging. The issue of slow city and rational development has been proposed to improve the conditions. The slow movement of cities in 1986 was created in the world as a cultural movement to enhance the quality of life and MoreNowadays, aimless and hasty urban development is emerging. The issue of slow city and rational development has been proposed to improve the conditions. The slow movement of cities in 1986 was created in the world as a cultural movement to enhance the quality of life and reduce the speed in cities. This movement first started with the idea of slow food and protests against the McDonald's food chain in the world, especially in Italy. It gradually made its way to other parts of urban development. The slow city is trying to make the city slow. Rationality is an ideological orientation for city planners. In other words, rationality is a principled option to achieve an efficient compromise in difficult situations. Since a slow city emphasizes humanistic urban development, increasing vitality, paying attention to culture, local history, and planned urban development, it can have a close association with the rational development of the city. The components of a slow city, which include improving the quality of life, paying attention to infrastructure, improving environmental conditions, improving the urban texture, developing local products, and awareness, lead to the rational development of the city. It is followed by comfort, relaxation, and facilities for the citizens. Some of the significant and basic symbols of rational urban development are reviving the texture, paying attention to the infrastructure, and improving the quality of life and urban services. It can be concluded that the model of rational urban development and the issue of the slow city complement each other and are related to each other. We are living in the age of speed and the basis of the rational development of the city with emphasis on the components of the slow city is not based on not being left behind by speed and progress but the goal is to be careful in this situation to prevent deprived comfort and peace in life. The necessity and significance of investigating the slow city and rational urban development: improving the quality of life, and building a better life for all citizens in a lively urban environment, providing a suitable model with the original form of the city in line with improving the existing situation and revitalizing the texture, providing optimal facilities, creating peace, and reducing stress In other words, the goal of explaining the impacts of rational development on the realization of a slow city is to achieve an ideal city away from stress and tension. The question of this project is what are the effective solutions for the realization of a slow city concerning rational development in Qazvin city? This article was an attempt to investigate the problems of Qazvin city considering the issue of planned development and its impact on the realization of a slow city. The principles of this article are applied and its method is a descriptive analysis. It was conducted qualitatively and quantitatively. Questionnaires were completed by 10 experts in this field to measure the importance of each of the components. Then, the criteria were calculated by Expert Choice software. In this regard, based on the analyses performed, the quality of life standard with a mean weight of 0.200 was ranked first, environmental quality with a mean weight of 0.167 was ranked second, and diversity with a mean weight of 0.122 was ranked third. The results showed that Qazvin city is surrounded by the traditional garden from three fronts, and problems such as the intersection of worn-out texture with historical texture and population density have significantly limited the development of the dimensions of Qazvin city.For this reason, the burden of urban development in Qazvin province has been shifted to the north side of the city. However, due to the lack of some infrastructure facilities, favorable city atmosphere, vitality, land uses appropriate to the scope, accessibility, inefficient texture, purposeful, and rational development of the city have not been fully realized. In this regard, it is necessary to consider all dimensions to realize a rational development and a slow city in Qazvin. Given the limitations of each region, solutions such as giving identity, supply, and distribution of services and land use, trust building, modification of the texture structure, protection of gardens, and introducing the traditions and culture of the city should be presented.

This study delves into the KBUD features of Qazvin, tracing its journey towards becoming a knowledge city. With its universities, knowledge workers, and knowledge industries, Qazvin boasts a high capacity and potential for knowledge city status. The study explores the critical connections between Qazvin’s sources, internal capabilities, and KBUD. Utilizing qualitative content analysis, data were collected from documentaries, libraries, affiliate organizations in Qazvin, and the statistical agency. Experimental data were gathered through a survey employing the Delphi method. Meta-SWOT and PESTEL analyses were applied to process information and formulate KBUD strategies. While Qazvin possesses the foundations for a knowledge city, it exhibits deficiencies in various indicators. The research findings highlight Qazvin’s abundant sources and internal capabilities, such as the Science and Technology Park, KBUD vision, knowledge workers, and the creative class, which play invaluable roles in the city’s development as a knowledge hub. Conversely, weaknesses in urban research and development, coupled with economic downturns, pose significant barriers and threats to this endeavor. Manuscript profile -

Following this, the need to pay attention to the concept of quality in residential areas, along with attention to quantitative problems, is felt more. Human settlements can be most desirable for residents, to meet their demands. Urban spaces are the places where the most interactions occur between them. In fact, the quality of the urban environment leads to the presence or absence of citizens in urban space. Lack of favorable environmental qualities has led to a diminution of social life in recent years. The city of Qazvin, as one of the middle cities with a historical background, is no exception to this and it is necessary to review the views of citizens on the quality of urban space in it. This research studies the views of citizens on the quality of life in Qazvin city with the aim of achieving effective indicators of urban quality of life in physical and social dimensions. In order to identify the factors, the exploratory factor analysis (EFA) method has been used. To determine the priority of factors, Friedman test was used. Five factors in social dimension and six factors in the physical dimension are identified and named. According to the results of the Friedman test, the most important factors in the social dimension are respectively social life and public participation, and in the physical dimension, respectively, are legibility and personalization.

In this research, critical scientific research method was used and archival method was used to collect data. Feminist theories include a wide range of theories, such as: women-centered theory, theories of difference (cultural feminism, Simone de Beauvoir theory), sociological theories of gender difference (institutional theory and interactionist theory), theories of gender inequality (liberal feminism), theories of oppression (psychoanalytic feminism, feminism radical), theories of structural oppression (socialist feminism, interference theory) and postmodern theories of feminism. Criticism of the research findings shows that feminist theories, due to being ahistorical, not considering different cultures, pessimism towards men, the same attitude towards all men, a purely materialistic attitude towards love, failure to respond to the mechanism of creating patriarchy, considering men as oppressors, Opposing the teachings of world religions and the same attitude to all religions, fanatical attack on heterosexuality, imposing homosexuality on women as a superior epistemology, promoting a new identity against the reversed identity, opposing individualism by claiming individualism, plurality and sexual freedom, and defining sexuality. For women, criticism of the institutional feminist theory, lack of attention to "unrealization", lack of attention to the difference in the body and finally the weakness of psychoanalytic feminism in examining the social arrangements of emotions are criticized. It can be stated that despite their practical and theoretical effects, feminist theories have many theoretical weaknesses that have been addressed in this research. Manuscript profile -
