The universalization of the use of virtual social networks has caused important changes in lifestyles, habits and social relationships and the relationship between people and governments. Social movements, as one of the methods of conveying demands and communication between people and the government, are strongly affected by these changes. In the last two decades, the mobilization function of social networks has shown a new face of social movements all over the world. The aim of the current research is to explain this effect in the social movements of Iran between 2018 and 2018. The method of this research is descriptive-analytical and collected information using library sources, documents and secondary data. The findings of the research show that the use of social networks has played an effective and central role in facilitating the mobilization of resources for social movements. The major incidents investigated in the mentioned time period show that regardless of the reasons for the existence of social movements, with the control or lack of access to social networks, bringing the supporters of the movement to the stage is hindered, and with the passage of time, these protest movements suffer erosion and weakness.

The expansion of cyberspace and the use of its tools such as Telegram has brought about many changes in the lifestyle and interaction of citizens. Considering that students are one of the most vulnerable sections of the society in this field, this research examines the pathology of the role of Telegram on the isolation and disruption of students in social interactions. Method: The research method used in this descriptive research is correlation, and by using the calculated correlation coefficients, a structural model was developed. The statistical population of the current study includes all high school students in Tehran in the academic year 2017-2018 and the sample size was selected based on the Cochran formula equal to 384 people. Spearman's statistics and Lisrel's structural equations to determine the abundance percentage, density percentage, etc.) have been used to confirm relationships and hypotheses. The world of technology is made up of different parts. Its goals are to improve and accelerate and facilitate communication between people in the society. One of the most used parts of communication technology can be mentioned virtual social networks. The public has become accessible and easy.
Today, virtual social networks have gained a lot of popularity among young people. While these networks are spaces where they find new people and friends or keep their old friends informed about the changes in their lives, the place are for the exchange of ideas in which young people share their opinions and views. This ability for a young person to communicate with other people in the countries of the world makes these networks become a place where New ideas are introduced and discussed. Of course, along with these great advantages, one should also think about its hidden dangers. In this space, new opportunities for displaying personality are provided to users, and this space allows the individualization of ways. It has fueled the lives of young people and has set new boundaries in the formation of values and identification, especially the values related to familiarity and romantic friendships, which are among the harms of social networks. The issue of virtual social networks The main preoccupation of users in the world and consequently Iran has been. These virtual networks brought with them personal, social and cultural changes and had their impact on various social institutions such as family, friends, education, etc. has left, while this phenomenon will be effective in the individual and social behavior of humans and has caused people to distance themselves from real communities and close to virtual communities. virtual networks occur, increasing the importance of the issue and considering the rapid expansion of Internet users in Iran and the high composition of its young population compared to the recent past, this network seems important that the works and its consequences in different aspects, including the psychological, social and cultural effects of these virtual networks, as well as its effects on disrupting interactions and increasing isolation, should be investigated and explored. In this research, after studying several definitions of social networks and its effect on interaction, and in addition to that, examining the different theories of theorists in the field of social networks (advantages and disadvantages or challenges), we can reach the conclusion that the spread of virtual space and social networks Facebook, Telegram, Twitter, Instagram, WhatsApp, etc., on the one hand, can help the dynamics and growth of the society and the youth, as well as the communication of different communities with each other, and can also cause harm to the members of the society. Especially the youth and teenagers.
Findings: The findings of the research show that the harmful factors of social networks and the increase of social isolation are effective with emphasis on the role of Telegram in social interaction or social isolation among high school students in Tehran. Also, the harmful factors of social networks and disruption in social interaction with emphasis on the role of Telegram in social interaction or social isolation among high school students in Tehran are influential. And finally, the results showed that there is a significant relationship between students' isolation and disorder and the use of the Telegram social network. Conclusion: The use of the Telegram social network has an effect on the formation of social isolation among Tehran students, and due to reasons such as the lack of proper management and the weak culture of using Telegram, some social deviations and isolation have occurred in Tehran students.

The Telegraph Social Network is the most user-friendly social network in Iran, which holds a large amount of content and content. The current qualitative research has been conducted with the aim of investigating the factors affecting the membership of married people in this network by means of thematic analysis. The statistical population included married people aged 15-40 years old in Borujerd, who had experience in using this network for at least one year. The sample size of 31 people, the purposeful sampling method and the data collection method was a profound interview. The results of coding the interviews showed that the individual was influenced by: (1) push factors (technology pressure, loneliness, unemployment, normative constraints, mental and physical exhaustion, emotional emptiness, inappropriate self-actualization, consumer society), and (2) Absorption mechanisms (secure, easy, cheap, broad and fast communication, awareness, entertainment, business prosperity, free-thinking seats) have become part of this network. As a result, the individual becomes generally part of the network due to the real world constraints as well as the attractiveness of the telegram as a double factor.

The media along with modern technologies have been influential in the transformation of the cultural and social characteristics of a society. In this regard, humor and irony on general and jokes as a part of sub-culture may be effective in the process of social change. In the light of the extension of virtual space and various messengers including telegram, this space, with respect to its potentials, has created remarkable communications and mutual interactions between social context and its output. Restriction policies of virtual space and the use of symbolic violence has led to some changes in the action of telling-jokes. The present article, is based on a descriptive-analytical approach and uses a combined research methodology. Hence, in quantitative section, experts have analyzed explorative factors among the samples. In qualitative section, netnographic method has been used to compare different jokes in virtual space before and after the telegram filtering. Finally, the jokes has been analyzed using Raymond Boudon’s metatheory and Pierre Bourdieu’s symbolic violence. The results of the present study suggest that the filtering of telegram not only did not reduce the jokes intensity and effectiveness, but resulted in the enhancement of black jokes especially associated with sex category andthe reduction of the white jokes aiming at mere laughter. Furthermore, communicative and access challenges contributed to the change of jokes from pictorial to written form.

Regarding that political humor was one of most prevalent communicative themes during the presidential election in 2017, this research aims to answer this question that how political humor is used in most politicized period of time. So we chose two virtual communities in Telegram messenger including extreme advocates of two main political parties and analyzed more than 7000 massages of these groups during 30 days up to presidential election in 2017, using the Cyber-Ethnographic method. We have found that humor is utilized in two ways: as a weapon (in semiotic battle and keeping up cognitive distance against opponents) and as a relief (for reducing anxiety and nervous pressure and growing sympathy with insiders). But the main distinction between these groups was implementing Survival humor (laughing at misery) by the reformist one. Also these communicative departure to virtual space has caused changes both in Telegram as a medium (customization based on recipient’s lingual and cultural context) and in logic of politics (because of inherent characteristics of this medium). In fact, we are witness of blending areas (political and nonpolitical, personal and impersonal, sadness and happiness and …).

Alongside with the advent and proliferation of internet usage in societies, more debates on the potentials of internet in reviving or reshaping the public sphere or even creating a new one has aroused. Thus, this paper is trying to evaluate if a micro public sphere is shaped in a Telegram group where Iranian journalist had discussed the requirements and conditions for establishing a professional association. Telegram is the most popular Instant Messaging Application in Iran now, and its groups provide a very convenient space for discussions and conversations. That is why numerous groups are created to enable people to participate in public and (potentially) free discussions. In September 2016, when some Iranian journalist tried to establish a professional association for Tehran-based journalists, a group in Telegram was created which attracted more than 600 members at that time. The announced purpose of the group was exploring the circumstances and providing helpful suggestions for those working to prepare the statute of the association. Thus, using a triangulation of three methods, we tried to achieve a close reading of messages in the group (we analyzed 1117 messages from the beginning before the theoretical saturation was achieved). We identified 5 different kinds of conversations: simple, empathy, non-challenging, challenging, and hostile. Findings showed that the members’ actions in some cases can be seen as communicative rather than instrumental or strategic. Results also indicated that as debates got more hostile, many of public sphere’s norms were violated.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship of engagement in social media with the image and tourism destination selection, ultimately. For this aim, a conceptual model that shows the relationship between engagement, cognitive mental image, emotional image and destination selection was designed and the research was carried out by using survey method and questionnaire tool. The target population of the study was the users of the active tourism groups in Telegram, and an available sample was our sampling method. Collected data were tested by using structural equation modeling and by helping SPSS22 and AMOS22. The results of the research model analysis indicated that there is a significant relationship between engagement in tourism-based Telegram groups with a cognitive and emotional image of the destination. In addition, cognitive mental image and emotional mental image have also a meaningful relationship with the destination selection. Finally, this study did not find evidence of a direct relationship between engagements with destination selection. At sum up, practical propositions for using telegram channel by tourism destination management have been provided.

The main purpose which this article follows, is comparative studying on the role of “telegram” as a social network and broadcasting media “IRIB” in advertising about the 12th presidential election. For achieving to this goal, we referred to the ideas of skillful professors and the votes of experts who have cognition about “telegram”, as a new phenomenon. The first result indicates that the user of internet is “very much”, and the measure of using the “telegram” is “much”. I mean not as much as internet but it is much more than others. However, the reasons for using the social channel of “telegram” as the experts said was getting information, data and also getting the recent political and social news. Meanwhile, the researchers have studied on the important recent issue “the 12th presidential elections” and they compered the role of “IRIB” and “telegram” in attracted the attentions of user of telegram and the TV audience. The demonstrative results show that there is a connote (semantic)connection between watching the animations and videos via telegram and the number of people taking part in presidential elections. Among the different functions of “telegram” being on line. Being having accessible and having high speed and spreading the candidates’ messages in election, there is a specific connection. At last, it is suggested that we should think on using telegram as a devise to serve for IRIB not think of it is a threatening device, and we change this threaten to an ideal chance for a future schedule(preview).

Nowadays, many Iranians are using smart phones. Also, the digital divide problem remains an important issue in contemporary urban Iran. Thus, doing research into the relation between these variables is necessary to provide a better understanding of the problem. Using Van Deursen and Van Dijk theory, this paper aims to clear if smart phone usage causes some new kinds of digital divide or not. Furthermore, we measured the correlations between some socio-demographical variables with digital divide. We surveyed 273 of Tehran citizens to answer the research questions and test the hypotheses. Finding shows that the main divide occurs in skills acces also there is a divide in material access but. In addition, class and education have the most effect on digital divide. Class affect the all kinds of accesses and education have effect on 2 of them, while other variables such as age, gender and ethnicity don not have significant effect on different levels of access.

The present survey has been done for studying member’s communicative actions in Telegram virtual teams due to the way of impression management by using self -face work. Haberma’s communicative action and Goffman’s Impression management has been used as theoretical combination for this purpose. According to the specific characteristic of text messages in Telegram, linguistic analysis is an approach of research method. Approximately 10 thousand members from 20 Telegram groups as Art, Science and Sport will be evaluated in this survey. Results indicate significant presence of goal-oriented action in these groups.
