Most researchers merely describe the functional and structural features of space policy management and explain how countries are divided and ignore the impact of different factors on the way political management of space has been. Governments have to reorganize their territory politically in order to govern and govern their territory. Also, the level of power and authority of the regions within the countries depends on the type of political system governing the countries. The context and framework of the administrative organizational structure of a country is determined by the political management of space. If the system of political management of space is hierarchically high, the organizational structure will also tend to be high. The high structure, in addition to slowing down the information process, has led to the expansion of bureaucracy due to the need for facilities, resources and manpower, and the complication of bureaucracy, waste of resources and high costs. Marxism has been chosen as a discourse centered on justice, and Castro-era Cuba has been chosen for analysis as a country influenced by this discourse. In Cuba after the 1959 revolution against the dictator Batista, the centralist structure that prevailed during his time continued in a different way. Cuban society before the revolution was different from the civilized societies of the time, the fundamental distinction between the deprived and the affluent, the rulers and farmers and citizens of Havana with other peoples, had created a rift that could make Cubans two separate nations. A select group of prominent government officials, army officers, and landowners ruled the community, and the rest of the people lived in deplorable living, health, and educational conditions.This study is about the political management of space in Cuba after the 1959 revolution.MethodologyThe nature of exploratory research is descriptive-analytic and uses library resources, and the method is also influenced by the provocative methods; discourse is, according to a dominant definition, intellectual and practical logic ruling over a specific time and place, the ideology of a state Can be considered a hegemonic discourse. Using the method of Laclau and Mouffe discourse analysis to analyze phenomena, events and socio-political issues requires accurate knowledge of the concepts used by the two, as long as the researcher has not learned these concepts properly, their application and formulation in various subjects. It is difficult and impossible, the most important concepts and terms of Lacla and Mouffe that are often used in this research are such as articulation, domain of discourse, obstruction, chain of equivalence and so onResults and discussionThe ideology of government in Cuba has had a special impact on its political management. The characteristics of Cuba in the form of the analysis of the discourses of Lacla and Mouffe, describe and then influence the dominant discourse on Cuba in its political management after the 1959 revolution. After the revolution, ideology of Marxism paid attention to the necessity of paying attention to all aspects of the Cuban nation, and it became apparent on all issues of this country. At periods in the life of Cuba's socialist system over the past 60 years, this discourse has had its weaknesses. Not all Cubans agreed with the new regime, and the US-backed opposition created problems for a goal-oriented and egalitarian justice discourse. The popular discourse in post-revolutionary Cuba was easily introduced to the traditional society of the country. People had not forgotten the bitter experience of the Spanish, American and colonial period of Batista and his allies, the new discourse gained credibility with them. The type of government in Cuba is centralist and simple, and the main powers and institutions of government are all concentrated in Havana. All states are under the control of the central government and are subordinate to the government in important decisions and have no special autonomy. This centralism is also one of the policies of the Cuban revolutionary discourse. Autonomy has been widely condemned for economic sabotage and interaction with the United States since the beginning of the revolution, and states are unlikely to become autonomous for many years to come. The states have full authority over local affairs, and all elements of local government are elected by the local people, but the policy of most local policies is also determined by the Communist Party offices there, although this has changed since the constitutional amendment. ConclusionFrom the research results, it appears that Cuban political management of space is centered on the separation of powers and recognizes the constitution of civil and religious freedoms. The blockade of the Cuban revolutionary discourse after the collapse of the Soviet Union led to a revision of the constitution, which has guaranteed the revision and revision of the entrenchment of Cuban revolutionary discourse}, keywords = {Discourse Analysis,Cuban Revolution,Political management of space,Laclau &and,Mouffe,Socialism}, title_fa = {تحلیل گفتمان مدیریت سیاسی فضا در کشور کوبا پس از انقلاب 1959}, abstract_fa = {کارکرد سیاسی واحدهای مختلف درون کشوری به نوع حکومت و سیستم سیاسی کشور بستگی دارد. مدیریت سیاسی فضا، بیشتر تسهیل حاکمیت تا پایین­ ترین سطح سیاسی است. بیشتر پژوهشگران صرفاً به توصیف کارکردی و ساختاری مدیریت سیاسی فضا و تشریح چگونگی تقسیمات کشوری اکتفا کرده و از توجه به تأثیر عوامل مختلف بر شیوۀ مدیریت سیاسی فضا غافل بوده­اند. ماهیت پژوهش اکتشافی بوده و محتوا توصیفی- تحلیلی و مبتنی بر روش تحلیل گفتمان است و از منابع کتابخانه ای استفاده شده است. گفتمان طبق یک تعریف مسلط، منطق فکری و عملی حاکم بر یک دورۀ زمانی و مکانی خاص است، ایدئولوژی یک حکومت را می ­توان یک گفتمان هژمونیک محسوب کرد. ایدئولوژی حکومت در کوبا تاثیر خاصی بر مدیریت سیاسی فضای آن گذاشته است. ویژگی های کوبا در قالب تحلیل گفتمان لاکلا و موفه، تشریح و سپس تاثیر گفتمان حاکم بر کوبا در مدیریت سیاسی این کشور بعد از انقلاب 1959 تحلیل و بررسی شد. بعد از انقلاب 1959 ایدئولوژی مارکسیسم، ضرورت توجه به همه آحاد ملت کوبا را مورد توجه قرار داده و در همه مسائل این کشور نمود پیدا کرد. از نتایج پژوهش چنین بر می­آید که مدیریت سیاسی فضا در کوبا تمرکزگرا با تکیه بر تفکیک قوا بوده و قانون اساسی آزادی­ های مدنی و مذهبی را به رسمیت می­ شناسد. انسداد گفتمان انقلابی کوبا بعد از فروپاشی شوروی موجب بازنگری در قانون اساسی شد، که این اصلاح و بازنگری استیلای گفتمان انقلابی کوبا را تا امروز تضمین کرده است.}, keywords_fa = {گفتمان,انقلاب کوبا,مدیریت سیاسی فضا,لاکلا و موفه,سوسیالیسم}, url = {https://mag.iga.ir/article_246226.html}, eprint = {https://mag.iga.ir/article_246226_2f73efc73253333d59aa62f47fa959cd.pdf} } @article { author = {Lasemipoor, Robabe and saidi, abbas and Rahmani, Bijan}, title = {Affecting Factors on Formation of Rural Sprawl in Chamestan Area Case Study: Noor County.

One of the factors influencing the physical-spatial developments of rural settlements that in recent years, these areas have faced a complex spatial crisis is the physical phenomenon of "sprawl" that over time by swallowing rural lands, agricultural and garden uses to It transforms residential, commercial and service and, ultimately, leads to the integration and unification of  villages to meet the rapid growth of population and meet high demand, reflecting the flow of influence - the impact of internal factors (natural forces - ecological and social - Economic) and external forces (political-administrative decisions and civil actions), each of which in the context of time and dynamic interaction, somehow cause physical-spatial  changes and vulnerability of rural areas.        MethodologyThe present study is a descriptive-analytical research in terms of purpose, method and description of the current situation and conditions, and data collection has been done using documentary and library methods and survey data. The statistical population of this study includes all rural settlements in Chamestan section of Noor city located in three villages (Natel Rustaq, Mianroud and Lavij) with 87 villages that are naturally located in mountainous, foothill and plain sections. The selection of rural settlements from all three villages is based on their natural characteristics, population and distance from the city.  In order to determine the sample size, an average of 20% of the villages from each village was considered and based on the proportional allocation, out of 87 villages, 17 villages were selected.  Then, using Morgan and Krejcie table, according to the population and number of households in each village, 250 heads of households were selected as a sample and  questionnaires were distributed among them using a simple random sampling method. Local managers (councils and village heads) were also questioned due to their responsibility to monitor and control land use change in rural areas in full.  Data collection in this study wasobservational and questionnaire and information analysis was performed both qualitatively and  quantities.    Results and discussionFactors affecting the formation of sprawl  in rural lands of Chamestan region can be divided into two categories: internal factors (environmental or natural-ecological, economic, social and physical factors) and external factors (political and legal factors). According to the research findings, it was found that the pattern of sprawl and land use change in rural settlements of Chamestan region has been affected more than anything by its environmental-ecological factors;  The existence of three plains, foothills and mountains and the existence of  different slopes from north to south of the region, indicates the existence of diverse topography of the region, which has caused all areas in different heights and slopes of the region, the phenomenon of sprawl and change  Experience land use.  On the other hand, the economic problems of the people such as low income and decrease in income of rural households from the agricultural sector, rising prices and stock exchanges after land use change, low prices of agricultural products, low productivity of capital in the agricultural sector and land returns in the sector  Agriculture and service and housing activities and changes in household income along with higher prices of agricultural inputs, import of similar products at lower prices, higher profitability in service and industrial activities, high production costs, high risk and risk in agricultural activities, hard work  Agriculture has joined hands to make the phenomenon of sprawl and land use change occur widely and with much higher speed and intensity in the agricultural and garden lands of the studied rural areas, especially in the Chamestan plain area. In this regard, population growth and migration along with the spontaneous expansion of second-home tourism, lower social status of agriculture compared to activities related to services(tourism), changing the lifestyle of villagers from simplicity to luxury, the existence of smallholder farming and plots Land fragmentation has been a social factor in the formation of the creep phenomenon. The expansion of communication routes, transportation networks and easy access, has  played an important role in creating spatial and functional connections between settlements in the region and in fact by providing the possibility  Infrastructure and superstructure services in rural areas have caused   spatial changes and sprawl in the region. Weak government support   policies for agriculture and farmers were recognized as one of the most important and effective external factors in the formation of sprawl in the rural areas under study. Approval and implementation of the rural  master plan, weakness of institutions and executive bodies in the implementation of land use protection laws, weakness in control and supervision. Construction and issuance of licenses by the responsible organizations, the law of successive division of land between children due to inheritance law, the lack of a system of registration of documents and property and the predominance of the charter system of real estate, the process of sprawl formation and increase in construction  And has accelerated gardens in the  areal. ConclusionIn general, in order to explain the causes and factors of sprawl formation in rural areas of Chamestan, the effectiveness of each factor alone in this process will be a one-dimensional, simplistic and reductionist analysis and a systemic, co-synergistic and synergistic view.To all the internal and external factors governing rural settlements, it is inevitable. And studies showed that rural sprawl in rural settlements of Chamestan is not sustainable for development, so that the path and goal of development has been reduced from a comprehensive development process to economic growth. }, keywords = {Rural sprawl,Internal factors,External factors,Rural settlements,City Noor}, title_fa = {عوامل اثرگذار بر شکل‌گیری خزش روستایی در ناحیه چمستان مطالعه موردی: شهرستان نور، استان مازندران}, abstract_fa = {خزش، یکی از ویژگی­ های شناخته ­شده در بیشتر سکونتگاه ­های روستایی است که موجب تخریب اراضی طبیعی و کشاورزی و در نتیجه تغییر کاربری اراضی می شود. با توجه به اهمیت موضوع، نوشتار حاضر در پاسخ به این پرسش اساسی تحقیق که چه عواملی در شکل ­گیری پدیدۀ خزش در اراضی سکونتگاه های ناحیۀ چمستان شهرستان نور مؤثرند، تدوین شده است. این مطالعه از نظر هدف، کاربردی و از نظر ماهیت و روش جمع ­آوری داده­ ها، پژوهشی توصیفی-تحلیلی است. جامعۀ آماری پژوهش، تمامی 87 سکونتگاه­ ها روستایی ناحیۀ چمستان بوده که بر­اساس تخصیص متناسب، تعداد 17 روستا انتخاب شد. سپس با استفاده از جدول مورگان و کرجسی، برحسب جمعیت و خانوار هر روستا، 250 سرپرست خانوار، به­عنوان نمونه انتخاب شده و پرسشنامه ­ها با استفاده از روش نمونه­ گیری تصادفی ساده میان آن ها توزیع شد. همچنین، از مدیران محلی (شوراها و دهیاران) نیز به­دلیل داشتن مسئولیت نظارت و کنترل تغییر کاربری اراضی در مناطق روستایی به ­صورت تمام ­شماری پرسشگری صورت گرفت. یافته ­ها نشان داد که شکل­ گیری خزش در سکونتگاه­ های روستایی چمستان تحت تأثیر شرایط توپوگرافی و اقلیمی متنوع،  کاهش درآمد خانوارهای روستایی از محل کشاورزی و افزایش قیمت و بورس­بازی زمین پس از تغییر کاربری، پایین ­بودن قیمت محصولات کشاورزی، پایین ­بودن بهره­وری سرمایه در بخش کشاورزی، افزایش و رشد جمعیت روستایی، مهاجرت معکوس از شهرها به روستاها، گسترش خانه ­های دوم، بهبود حمل و نقل و ارتباطات، ضعف در تدوین دستورالعمل آیین ­نامه مربوط به قانون کاربری اراضی، ضعف در کنترل و نظارت بر ساخت و ساز و سیاست ­های حمایتی ضعیف از کشاورزان، بوده است.}, keywords_fa = {خزش روستایی,عوامل درونی,عوامل بیرونی,سکونتگاه‌های روستایی,ناحیۀ چمستان,شهرستان نور,استان مازندران}, url = {https://mag.iga.ir/article_246227.html}, eprint = {https://mag.iga.ir/article_246227_4fc76a66b0d636994411638315f60595.pdf} } @article { author = {Jafari, Mahtab and vasegh, mahmood and Pishgahi Fard, Zahra and Yazdan Panah Droo, Kiomars}, title = {Systematic Analysis of Political Division of Space in Iran}, journal = {Geography}, volume = {19}, number = {69}, pages = {39-52}, year = {2021}, publisher = {Iranian Geographical Association}, issn = {2783-3739}, eissn = {2717-2996}, doi = {}, abstract = {Extended Abstract IntroductionAchieving social justice and development is one of the most important concerns of developing countries today. Whereas how the political organization of space affects the realization or non-realization of social justice; Therefore, the ruling political system in order to better manage its territory, to establish maximum coordination and efficiency based on various geographical, political, economic, social, cultural elements and in order to facilitate the sovereignty of the government to the lowest political levels in the country, uses the tools of political organization of space. In the meantime, it should be noted that the division of the country as one of the most important tools of political organization of space, for better management and greater use of regional talents. In other words, the realistic application of divisions of the country based on scientific principles and spatial needs is done with the two objectives of optimizing places and optimizing functions and activities, ultimately, it will fertilize internal-place capacities and achieve local, national and regional development.Now, due to the existence of unbalanced natural conditions, lack of uniform distribution of vital resources, the existence of a centralized government system that has led to a lack of optimal distribution of population and facilities in Iran; It should be noted that wrong decisions related to the geographical space of the country can lead to the emergence of various challenging factors in the interests of the country. In the meantime, recognizing how the elements and factors affecting the political division of Iranian space with the aim of gaining a realistic and comprehensive view in this field, to address the challenges to achieve the goals of political division of space is essential. Therefore, during the present study, we intend to determine the impact of elements and factors such as the form of government, ecological minorities, geography of power and support, etc. on the division of space in Iran, and finally through systematic analysis with the presentation of the model to evaluate the role of factors and elements affecting the political division of Iranian space and its consequences.MethodologyTherefore, the present study was conducted to identify and prioritize the factors affecting the political division of space in Iran in the form of systemic thinking in a descriptive-analytical manner, in terms of applied results and with an exploratory purpose. Therefore, at first, the factors affecting the political division of space in Iran were determined through library studies, and then to determine the importance of each component in the political division of space, a quantitatively and specifically researcher-made questionnaire was used, which is based on the Likert scale of one (very low) to five (very high) rated. The reliability of the questionnaire was determined through Cronbach's alpha. If the Cronbach's alpha coefficient is calculated for a scale greater than 0.7, the reliability of that scale is considered desirable. Cronbach's alpha coefficient in this study was calculated to be 0.71. Therefore, the reliability of the questionnaire has been evaluated as desirable and its validity has been confirmed by the judgment of experts as well as full coverage of theoretical foundations. Friedman inferential test has also been used to prioritize the impact of each component on the political division of space. A small sample of 30 experts related to the subject was considered and finally the result was modeled and reviewed based on systemic thinking through Vensim software.Results and discussionBased on this model, we finally found that the form of government with a rank of 10.3, informal factors with a rank of 9.8 (which include the influence of supra-regional powers, parliamentarians, imams, government institutions, Islamic councils) and the population with a rank of 9, are the most effective components in the political division of the Iranian space.ConclusionAlso, in the Law of national divisions approved by 62, the basis of unification is mainly considered as a single criterion and based on population; It is obvious that considering such incomplete bases for Iran's geographical spaces, in which the topographic structure is heterogeneous and the pattern of population distribution and resources is unbalanced, will result in the emergence of various functional and physical challenges in the political division of Iranian space. Therefor amending and clarifying the law of division of the country with an unchangeable executive mechanism in such a way that no intervention by power agents is possible, while considering a multi-criteria model to achieve a more balanced pattern of space divisions, fertilization of internal-place capacities and finally achieving local, national and regional development is essential.}, keywords = {System Analysis,political division of space,Iran,vensim}, title_fa = {تحلیل سیستمی تقسیم سیاسی فضا در ایران}, abstract_fa = {تقسیمات کشوری به عنوان یکی از ابزارهای سازماندهی با دو هدف بهینه کردن مکان‏ها و بهینه کردن کارکردها و فعالیت‏ها صورت می‏پذیرید که نهایتاً سبب بارورسازی ظرفیت‏های درون‏مکانی و دستیابی به توسعۀ محلی، ملی و منطقه‏ای خواهد شد. حال از آنجا که تصمیمات نادرست مرتبط با فضای جغرافیایی کشور می‏تواند با توجه به وجود شرایط طبیعی نامتوازن، عدم توزیع یکنواخت منابع حیاتی و وجود یک سیستم حکومتی متمرکز که منجر به عدم توزیع بهینۀ جمعیت و امکانات در کشور ایران شده است؛ می‏تواند موجب بروز و ظهور عوامل چالش‏زای گوناگون، ناهمگونی‏ هایی همچون توسعۀ نامتوازن استان‏ها و بطور کلی ایجاد آثار منفی بر منافع کشور شود. در این میان شناخت چگونگی اثرگذاری عناصر و عوامل مؤثر بر تقسیم سیاسی فضای ایران با هدف کسب دید واقع‏ بینانه و همه‏ جانبه در این زمینه، جهت رفع و حل چالش‏های موجود و کاهش و کنترل آثار منفی عوامل و عناصر نامبرده جهت تحقق اهداف تقسیم سیاسی فضا ضروری می‏باشد. بنابراین، پژوهش حاضر از نوع توصیفی- تحلیلی با روش جمع‏آوری اطلاعات کتابخانه‏ای- میدانی و بکارگیری آزمون استنباطی فریدمن جهت شناسایی و اولویت‏بندی عوامل مؤثر بر تقسیم سیاسی فضای ایران در قالب تفکر سیستمی انجام شد. سپس از طریق تحلیل سیستمی همراه با ارائۀ مدل در بستر نرم‏افزار vensim به ارزیابی میزان و چگونگی نقش‏آفرینی عناصر مؤثر در تقسیم سیاسی فضای ایران پرداخته شد. در نهایت دریافتیم از میان عوامل مؤثر شناسایی شده، سه عامل شکل حکومت، عوامل غیررسمی  و جمعیت غالباً بیشترین تأثیر منفی را بر تقسیم سیاسی فضای ایران دارند.}, keywords_fa = {تحلیل سیستمی,تقسیم سیاسی,فضا,ایران}, url = {https://mag.iga.ir/article_246232.html}, eprint = {https://mag.iga.ir/article_246232_d20f89c1c5a48370468d56d55a6a977e.pdf} } @article { author = {Rezaei, Baqer and Pakdel Fard, Mohammad Reza and Sattari Sarbanqoli, Hassan and Akbari Namdar, Shabnam}, title = {Satisfaction Analysis of Mehr Housing Residents based on Physical-Social Dimension in Sahand New City, Case Study: Aftab Complex}, journal = {Geography}, volume = {19}, number = {69}, pages = {53-69}, year = {2021}, publisher = {Iranian Geographical Association}, issn = {2783-3739}, eissn = {2717-2996}, doi = {}, abstract = {Extended AbstractIntroductionIn Iran, especially after the Islamic Revolution, an attempt was made to provide maximum housing with an urban land plan. However, population growth and population flows along with economic trends in the following decades led to a large population of homeless people (especially in urban areas). In this regard, in 2008 (during the first term of Ahmadinejad's presidency), the Mehr housing project was implemented in Iran. Few studies in the field of pathology of Mehr housing have identified significant challenges in various fields. In the field of architecture, insufficient use of Iranian-Islamic architecture features and little attention to the use of identity indicators is a considerable drawback of Mehr housing. Also, in the field of social stability and in the form of indicators such as security, identity, sense of belonging, and cultural spaces, Mehr housing has not had the necessary efficiency. Therefore, in terms of the dimensions of residential quality such as economic and physical, cultural and physical, cultural and environmental, and environmental and physical, Mehr Housing has not been able to provide appropriate residential quality. In the implementation of the sewage project, shortage of educational and recreational units, urban space, asphalting of streets and provision of public spaces such as parks and ways to access units and street layout are facing challenges. Also, in terms of locating, studies have shown that the selected areas have not been identified as areas with priority and suitable for housing construction. In general, although comprehensive studies have not been conducted in the field of Mehr housing challenges of Sahand new city, considering the overall compliance of housing projects with the same structure and framework, it can be claimed that the set of economic, social, environmental and physical problems listed in the studies (in the cities of the country) can also be referred to the housing of the new city of Sahand.MethodologyThe present research method is descriptive-analytical and survey, and both quantitative and qualitative methods have been used. The present research method is descriptive-analytical and survey, and both quantitative and qualitative methods have been used. The study's statistical population includes the resident population of the Aftab complex in the new city of Sahand, which is equal to 945 people, and the sample size was obtained through Cochran's formula equal to 273 people. First, the normality of the data was examined using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test to examine the research questions, and after confirming the normality of the data, Pearson correlation and second-order confirmatory factor analysis were applied. The structural equation modeling approach was exerted using SPSS, MPLUS, and AMOS software to analyze the data. In this research, first, exploratory factor analysis based on principal component extraction and VARIMAX rotation method was applied using SPSS software to discover factors affecting the architecture of Mehr housing. Then, using MPLUS software, a confirmatory factor analysis method was used to confirm the exploratory factor structure. In the qualitative method, in-depth interview method was used. The statistical population is 36 architecture and urban planning professors and experts in the East Azerbaijan Housing Foundation. Responders' voices were coded using MAQXDA software. Responders' voices were coded using MAQXDA software and analyzed based on the method of structural equations and the alternative table.Results and DiscussionThe present study is related to Mehr housing architecture based on the physical-social dimension in the new city of Sahand, which the results showed that the index value (CMIN / DF) is equal to 3.85 which is desirable value for model fit. Also, the goodness of fit index (GFI) is 0.999, which indicates the acceptability of this rate for optimal fit of the model. The root mean square error of approximation (RMSEA) is 0.000, which is acceptable due to being smaller than 0.05 and indicates the confirmation of the research model. Also, the comparative fit index (CFI) is 1.000, and the parsimony normed fit index (PNFI) is 0.82, which all indicate the desired fit and approval of the research model. Also, the second-order factor analysis shows that the factor loadings of all physical-social factors on the Mehr housing architecture are greater than 0.4 and are significant at the 99% probability level. Comfort and security with a factor loading of 0.83 have the greatest impact on the housing architecture of the new city of Sahand. After that, landscape beauty (with factor loading 0.82), strength (with factor loading 0.80), privacy (with factor loading 0.79), facilities and equipment (with factor loading 0.71), location optimal (with a factor loading of 0.64), compatibility (with a factor loading of 0.56), accessibility (with a factor loading of 0.49) and culture (with a factor load of 0.11), respectively.ConclusionAccording to the obtained results, it is concluded that physical-social factors are influential in the satisfaction of Mehr housing residents of the new city of Sahand and there is a direct relationship between them.

Prerequisite for understanding these developments recognize the fundamental and important factors that shape these changes (Saeedi and Shafiei, 2008). These changes have forced planners in the process of land planning to carefully consider the issue of changes in the spatial system of land-use. Meanwhile, some researchers have focused on understanding land use change independently and based on studying the trend of change. Others have sought to understand the impact of demographic or environmental issues on land use change.MethodologyThis research is of a fundamental-applied type and relies on both library and field methods and has investigated the factors influencing land-use changes. In the library method, by referring to various scientific sources, including books, articles, scientific reports and related documents, classification techniques, resource evaluation, note-taking and summarizing have been used. According to field research techniques, multi-time remote sensing images and GIS, direct observation and interview methods have been used.Results and discussionKashan, is the significant administrative, political and economic center of Isfahan Province and most-populous cityin the region. Due to its special structure in providing various services and facilities, There are also cities outside the towns, so that perhaps the term "exclusive usurpation of needs" (Ehlers, 2001, 234) in the region can be best attributed to it. The study shows that in the last thirty years (1986-2016) the population and size of the city have expanded that itself has a direct relationship in the uses . Factors affecting land-use change in the central part of Kashan include: Socio-cultural, economic and physical factors. As indicated earlier, the city of Kashan, due to its important economic position in the region as an important external factor, has affected the land use system of the surrounding villages. Accordingly, the trend of these changes is towards the destruction of more agricultural lands and increasing man-made uses. In 2017, the area of ​​lands built in the central part of Kashan reached 6995.75 hectares. Forecasts show that this figure will be added to 6996 hectares in 2031 which indicates physical-spatial conflicts in the study area. Table 6 shows the matrix of land-use changes during the years 1396-1381 in terms of percentage. The results of land-use changes show that in the study area, the highest change with 17.75% and barren lands with the lowest change of 0.009% had the lowest conversion rate to constructed lands.ConclusionsAccording to the research findings, in the study area, several internal and external factors have led to changes in the use of agricultural lands (agricultural and horticultural) from other uses. Also, analysis based on demographic indicators show the polarity of the population in Kashan city and surrounding villages and other villages in the district. Continuation of the current unbalanced spatial-spatial trend have irreversible environmental consequences and, consequently, socio-economic consequences. In addition to intensify urbanization in the region, lead to a sharp rate of migration of villagers to the city and depopulation of villages. This means increasing spatial imbalances in the region. The effects and consequences of this growth, meanwhile, increase the polarity of Kashan city and surrounding villages, which is associated with the focus on changing agricultural lands (agricultural and horticultural) to industrial man-made uses and related production units. Industrial and manufacturing uses, meanwhile, have had far-reaching effects on environmental conditions due to their unbridled and uncontrolled nature. These include consequences such as the expansion of the city in rural areas and agricultural lands around the city, the destruction of small pastures in mountainous and mountainous areas, pollution of water and soil resources, air pollution and human problems caused by these pollutions. In addition, the logical result of agricultural land-use changes in the region exposes pressure on infrastructure networks such as water, gas, electricity, etc. Practical goals should be set to preserve the environment, the independence of the villages and to prevent dispersal. To facilitate the achievement of the mentioned content goals, in the process dimension, it is required to take the necessary measures to formulate the organizational, institutional and managerial structure. }, keywords = {Structural-functional dynamics,Internal and external factors,land use developments,Surrounding Villages of Kashan}, title_fa = {تحول کاربری اراضی در نواحی روستایی پیرامون شهر کاشان}, abstract_fa = {در بستر زمان، عوامل و نیروهای درونی و بیرونی، هر یک به شکلی در روند تحولات سکونتگاه‌های روستایی تأثیرگذارند. به عبارتی کاربری اراضی سکونتگاه‌های روستایی و شهری به‌عنوان یک نظام مکانی- فضایی دائم در حال تحول‌اند این تحولات از یکسو تحت تأثیر نیروها و روندهای درونی این نظام‌اند، و از طرفی از عوامل و نیروهای بیرونی که خود از سایر واقعیت‌های مکانی- فضایی و یا غیر فضایی نشأت می‌گیرند، تأثیر می‌پذیرند. بخش مرکزی کاشان نیز در حال تجربه این تحولات می‌باشد. این منطقه با بیش از 300 هزار نفر جمعیت، از مشکلاتی همچون، عدم تعادل فضایی، پراکنده رویی و تمرکز شدید رنج می‌برد. پیامد منطقی این تمرکز را می‌توان در رشد کالبدی شهر کاشان، خالی شدن سکنه روستاها، پدیدار شدن نابرابری‌های اجتماعی و اقتصادی، تخریب اراضی کشاورزی، بورس‌بازی زمین و رانت‌خواری، آسیب‌های اکولوژیکی و... مشاهده نمود. ازاین‌رو، تحلیل کاربری اراضی در این محدوده ضرورت دارد. برای این منظور نخست با استفاده از تصاویر ماهواره‌ای لندست 8 و با تکیه‌بر بعد ریخت‌شناسی ساختار فضایی، تغییرات کاربری اراضی استخراج، تحلیل و برای سال 1410 شبیه‌سازی می‌شود. در گام دوم، با استفاده از سه شاخص توزیع، خوشه‌بندی و تجمع، بر پایه داده‌های جمعیت در سال‌های مزبور، سیمای فضایی منطقه ترسیم می‌گردد. نتایج تحقیق نشان می‌دهد، نظام کاربری اراضی منطقه به‌طور شدیدی متأثر از پدیده خزش شهری است، که این امر زمینه تحول کاربری‌های اراضی روستاها به‌ویژه اراضی کشاورزی را فراهم کرده است. همچنین، عوامل و نیروهای درونی و بیرونی مختلف با منشاء محیطی- اکولوژیک، اجتماعی- اقتصادی و کالبدی در تغییر کاربری اراضی اثرگذار بوده‌اند، که در این میان نقش منابع آب و جریان جمعیت از اهمیت بیشتری نسبت به دیگر عوامل برخوردار است. درواقع، روستاها به‌منزله عرصه تکمیلی برای کارکردهای شهر کاشان شده‌اند.}, keywords_fa = {پویش ساختاری-کارکردی,نیروهای درونی و بیرونی,تحولات کاربری اراضی,روستاهای پیرامونی کاشان}, url = {https://mag.iga.ir/article_246243.html}, eprint = {https://mag.iga.ir/article_246243_0e1d15fe78296ba677d19e311d884697.pdf} } @article { author = {Sadeghi, Ali and ahmadi, Sayad Abbas and Hosseinkhani, Ruhollah}, title = {The strategic and geopolitical challenges of the Zionist regime (Israel)}, journal = {Geography}, volume = {19}, number = {69}, pages = {83-98}, year = {2021}, publisher = {Iranian Geographical Association}, issn = {2783-3739}, eissn = {2717-2996}, doi = {}, abstract = {Extended AbstractIntroductionIn the field of politics and global relations, all countries, in addition to enjoying their strengths, always face many challenges and threats in order to survive and continue their political existence. Israel, that formed as a Jewish state by the conspiracy of the great powers in the twentieth century and in the heart of one of the Muslim countries of the West Asian region (Palestine), posed significant geopolitical challenges for both the Muslim countries of the region and itself. Affected by these challenges, it is concerned about his future and the continuation of his political life. Hence, some experts believe that this regime will not be able to overcome the massive volume of its internal and international problems in the coming decades, and as a result, a vague and dark future awaits it. Among these experts is Ayatollah Khamenei, the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution of Iran, stated: "After the end of these nuclear talks, I heard the Zionists in occupied Palestine say that at the moment, with these talks, we are relieved of Iran's concerns for 25 years; I answer that you will not see the next 25 years. (Khamenei, 2015)». Therefore, the present article seeks to answer the fundamental question of what are the most important weaknesses and geopolitical challenges of Israel that may threaten the future of this state?MethodologyThis research has been done in a descriptive-analytical method and has used a qualitative method of logical reasoning to analyze the required data and information obtained through libraries and documents and the opinions of experts on the strategic and geopolitical challenges of the Zionist regime. Results and discussionBased on the studies, the most important studies related to the opportunities and challenges facing the Zionist regime have been obtained and summarized as follows:-Opportunities and strengths of the Zionist regimeIt seems that at present Israel has good relations with some of its neighbors such as Egypt and Jordan (Ghasemi, 2004: 53). Israel has good economic capabilities such as benefiting from modern technology, increasing connection with the capitalist world, benefiting of free aid from the United States and Germany, and finally economic growth (Derakhsheh and Sadeghizadeh, 2015: 105).- The internal challenges of the Zionist regimeIncluding the existence of Palestinian militants (Ghasemi, 2004: 71) The issue of Palestinian refugees, political, social and ethnic divisions such as: differences over the type of treatment of Palestinians, demographic composition in favor of Muslims; (Derakhsheh and Sadeghizadeh, 2015: 228), Popular encounters with different cultures, with each other, ideological differences and the challenge of legitimacy (Mohammadi, 2015: 7), Serious dependence on migration and the phenomenon of reverse migration, security of socio-political space.- External or compound challenges of the Zionist regimeSuch as: hydropolitical crisis and energy and relative weakness of the population (Eftekhari, 2001: 175), Difficult geographical situation and lack of strategic depth and feeling of threat from classic and guerrilla attacks (Dehghani, 2014), Regional and global isolation (Chupani and Myar Abbasi, 2011: 62), the Islamic Revolution of Iran and the process of Islamic awakening and the axis of resistance (Ghasemi, 2004: 54), Confirmation of the unreality of the Holocaust In some scientific researches (Dost Mohammadi, 2012: 183 and Weber, 2009: 64), increasing differences with the European Union (Faizi, 2015) are the most important external challenges of this regime.- Predictions made about the vague future of the Zionist regimeKing Abdullah II of Jordan warned that if the process of reconciliation in the Middle East between Israel and Palestine is not achieved, Israel's long-term future will be in danger (King Abdullah, 2010). The CIA, which had previously predicted the collapse of the South African regime as well as the collapse of the Soviet Union, has expressed doubts about the survival of the Zionist regime after the next 20 years (CIA, 2015). Sixteen US intelligence agencies and institutions have also studied the reverse migration of Jews from Palestine to their original countries and concluded that Israel will collapse by 2025 (Mohammadi, 2015: 9). A narration in Baharalanvar states: The Jews will come from the West [to the Arab region of the Middle East] to form their state in Palestine. The Arabs fought the Jews three times, and in the fourth stage, victory overshadowed them (Majlisi, 1070: 59). In the book The Fall of Israel, three things are stated as the political preconditions for the fall of Israel: 1- Replacing the compromising Arabs with Israel, with the Persians fighting against Israel 2- The emergence of a new leadership and alternative current during two historical movements 3- The emergence of anti-Zionist resistance in the Sham. (Al-Fatlawi and Zolghadr, 2006: 130-184).  The Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution also stated in 2015: Insha'Allah, for another 25 years, by God's help and by God's grace, there will be no such thing as the Zionist regime in the region. ConclusionIn the international political climate and global relations, all countries have been affected by some internal and external challenges, worried about the future and the continuation of their political life. Meanwhile, some experts believe that Israel will not be able to overcome its internal and international problems in the future decades, and as a result, the issue of the destruction of this state is regularly raised in some political forums. This claim was examined with a list of internal challenges as well as external threats to Israel, in the form of theories such as the difficulty of adapting to the region's geopolitical environment and various narratives such as the CIA forecast and the leadership of the Islamic Revolution mentioned above. All this evidence, in general and based on the current situation, indicates the destruction of the political life of the Israeli, which should be cunsidered constantly of the Muslim countries in the region, especially the Palestinians.}, keywords = {Strategy,geopolitics,Geopolitical Challenge,Palestine,Israel}, title_fa = {تنگناها و چالش‌های راهبردی و ژئوپلیتیکی رژیم صهیونیستی}, abstract_fa = {یکی از مسائل و چالش‌های اساسی جهان به‌خصوص در منطقه غرب آسیا موضوع اسرائیل و آینده رژیم صهیونیستی است. به نظر می‌رسد که این مسئله را باید فراتر از یک مناقشه عادی بین اعراب و رژیم اشغالگر قدس دانست؛ چراکه کل مسائل جهان اسلام را تحت تأثیر قرار داده است. درواقع، برای بسیاری از مسلمانان، نابودی رژیم صهیونیستی به‌صورت یک آرمان درآمده است. قضاوت درباره اینکه آیا این آرمان محقق می‌شود یا خیر امر ساده‌ای نیست که بتوان بدون تکیه‌بر پژوهش‌های دانشگاهی بدان پرداخت. بنابراین لازم است تا جوانب مسئله موردبررسی‌های بیشتری قرار گیرد. در این راستا این مقاله درصدد است تا مهم‌ترین تنگناها و چالش‌های راهبردی و ژئوپلیتیکی رژیم صهیونیستی را مورد ارزیابی قرار دهد. داده‌های موردنیاز این پژوهش به روش کتابخانه‌ای و اسنادی گردآوری‌شده است و روش‌شناسی حاکم بر تحقیق نیز ماهیت توصیفی- تحلیلی دارد. نتیجه پژوهش نشان می‌دهد بااینکه رژیم صهیونیستی برخی فرصت‌ها را در اختیار دارد که از نقاط قوت آن به شمار می‌رود، درعین‌حال، با تنگناها و چالش‌های بزرگی نیز روبرو است. ازجمله مهم‌ترین این چالش‌ها می‌توان به شکاف و دودستگی‌های سیاسی، اجتماعی و قومی، وابستگی جدی به مهاجرت و پدیده مهاجرت معکوس، بحران هیدروپلیتیک و انرژی، وضعیت دشوار جغرافیایی و نداشتن عمق استراتژیک و نقش‌آفرینی محور مقاومت اشاره کرد.}, keywords_fa = {راهبرد,ژئوپلیتیک,چالش ژئوپلیتیک,فلسطین,رژیم صهیونیستی}, url = {https://mag.iga.ir/article_246240.html}, eprint = {https://mag.iga.ir/article_246240_780a7521a3ad246386de0a487957bf0b.pdf} } @article { author = {Tahmasebi Moghaddam,, Hossein and Heydari,, Mohammad Taghi and Shamai, Ali}, title = {Analysis of economic drivers in Zanjan and its effects on the quality of life of Peripheral villages Case study: Doasb and Paeen kooh villages}, journal = {Geography}, volume = {19}, number = {69}, pages = {99-113}, year = {2021}, publisher = {Iranian Geographical Association}, issn = {2783-3739}, eissn = {2717-2996}, doi = {}, abstract = {Extended AbstractIntroductionIn recent decades, excessive concentration in metropolitan areas and the polarization of industry and employment in cities and the abandonment of the surrounding area have led to land grabbing and uneven development of land use change, functional and structural changes in developing societies, including Iran. This spatial inequality has disrupted sustainable development in villages as well as cities, especially in urban peripheral environments.In this research, the functional relations of Zanjan city with the surrounding villages, which are under the direct influence of the city, have been considered. These villages have undergone fundamental changes in recent decades, and even their function and structure have changed completely. Considering these developments and their differences in special cases of suburban settlements in Zanjan, the integration of the spatial system of the city and its surroundings has been done based on the theoretical approach; Therefore, the research questions are as follows: What are the explanatory drivers of urban economy in Zanjan according to its current situation? Secondly, which factors related to the economic drivers of Zanjan have the greatest impact on the quality of life of peripheral villages? MethodologyThe present study is descriptive-analytical in terms of method and applied in terms of purpose. To collect the analytical data in a combined way, the survey and Delphi methods were used. In this regard, first, a conceptual indicator explaining the urban economic drivers was collected in a systematic study and review of resources, and then, the data analysis stage was carried out using a survey method as a questionnaire from the opinions of 50 related experts. Final concepts were analyzed using exploratory research tools, heuristic and confirmatory factor analysis models and regression analysis of path analysis, amount and manner of impact of economic components of Zanjan on the livelihood of peripheral villages in the form of structural equation modeling software (smart pls). To assess the validity of the questionnaires, several professors and experts in the field of urban planning and urban planning confirmed it. The reliability level of the research questionnaire was 0.81 using Cronbach's alpha method, which indicates a high coefficient of confidence. Results and discussionSpatial imbalance is evident in the urban system of Zanjan province and despite 21 urban points in this province, urban growth and expansion is more specific to the four main cities of Zanjan, Qeydar, Khorramdareh and Abhar. Over time, despite the decline of the first city in Zanjan province, the urban system tends to balance. Despite the increase in the number of small cities to reduce the imbalance in the urban system of the province, we witness a long distance between these cities and the first city; Other effective factors in exacerbating this inequality and imbalance can be the geographical factor, the way of budget allocation in the cities of the province, inadequate distribution of population and concentration of facilities and infrastructure in Zanjan and its undisputed role in the urban system of the province and the insignificant role of cities. ConclusionThe research findings show that most of the villagers are completely dependent on the city in terms of services, since cities are places where information is spread around. Based on field studies and distribution of questionnaires, sales of agricultural and horticultural products to the city scored the highest score among marketing and sales indicators and the amount of food supplies purchased from the city per month with a load of 0.73. Many experts and specialists in the agricultural sector believe that marketing is one of the necessities of the rural production system and agriculture, the importance of which is very evident in the process of rural production. The importance of this issue is such that, marketing is a more important category than production and marketing is mentioned as the invisible hand of production in developed countries and even in developing countries. This amount is above average, so the villages are completely dependent on the city of Zanjan for marketing and selling their products. Villagers come to this city to sell their products. Of course, proximity and short distance are also more reasons and causes numerous traffic and visits of the villagers. Then there is the index of purchasing food items from the city per month. The flow of urban investment in the economic activities of the villages, the flow of communication to purchase and supply of necessities with the values ​​of 2.227 and 2.045 have the lowest amount. Also, all independent variables could have a significant effect on the dependent variable. Therefore, the findings show that the economic drivers of Zanjan have had a great impact on the quality of life in peripheral villages. }, keywords = {Economic drivers,rural livability,rural-urban links,peripheral villages,Zanjan City}, title_fa = {تحلیل پیشران‌های اقتصادی شهر زنجان و اثرات آن بر کیفیت زیست پذیری روستاهای پیرا‌شهری مطالعه موردی: روستاهای دواسب و پایین کوه}, abstract_fa = {هم پیوندی بین شهر و روستاهای پیرا شهری، از عوامل اصلی و تعیین‌کننده توسعه روستایی به‌ویژه در بُعد اقتصادی است. هدف اصلی پژوهش حاضر تحلیل اثرات پیشران‌های اقتصادی شهر زنجان بر کیفیت زیست پذیری روستاهای پیرا شهری دو اسب و پایین کوه شهر زنجان است. این پژوهش ازنظر روش توصیفی ‌– ‌تحلیلی و ازلحاظ هدف کاربردی است، برای جمع­آوری اطلاعات از مطالعات کتابخانه و مقالات استفاده‌شده و ابزار گردآوری اطلاعات پرسشنامه می­باشد. برای تجزیه‌وتحلیل از تکنیک تحلیل عاملی و روش تحلیل مسیر بهره گرفته‌شده است. در مرحله اول با روش تحلیل عاملی از 27 مؤلفه، 25 مؤلفه بالاتر از 6/0 به‌دست‌آمده است که در ادامه موردبررسی قرارگرفته است. نتایج نشان می­دهد متغیرهای مستقل پژوهش حاضر جریان ارتباطی مربوط به بازاریابی و فروش محصولات، جریان خدماتی، جریان مبادله پول، جریان نیروی کار، جریان سرمایه‌گذاری شهرنشینان در فعالیت‌های اقتصادی روستاها، جریان ارتباطی جهت خرید و تأمین مایحتاج به ترتیب با ضرایب 044/14، 208/6، 296/4، 565/2، 227/2 و 045/2 در سطح معنی­داری p
