This case study have done in four Ministries; I-Sciences, Researches and Technology, 2-Communications and Information Technology, 3- Culture and Islamic Guidance & 4- Economic and Property Affairs. Findings of this research indicates that Public relations in social, cultural, economical and technological ministries of Islamic Republic of Iran, is a formalistic and none efficient profession and have not yet achieved to maturation and couldn't be a really profession with favorable structure and functions. It's rather a quasi modem subsystem that helps to quasi organization (system) to guise a modem entity with really propagandistic activities. It has no responsibility to inform public opinions and publics (optimistically if there is) and costumers, because the Ministries that encompasses these public relations are dependent social systems and systematically responsive just to government or regimen and have no need to inform beneficiaries and there is no reason and compulsion to push them to be informative agency that has commitments to answer and inform any beneficiary! Hence, Theoretic model of these public relations seems to be propagandistic model. Interim interests and disguise of modem subsystem is main aspect of these public relations; with none informative and illusive communicative activities. Finally, their main job is to seduce people and costumers. Therefore, In Iran's public relations agencies, there is no policy and commitment to mutual and trust communication and even logic relations to gain mutual and long term rational interests.

The objective of this paper is to offer a study on the mechanism of representing Irano-Islamic discoursive elements in the Iranian TV commercial advertising. The problem dealt with in this paper pertains to the Iranian constitutional law that urges the national media to contribute to the development of Irano-Islamic cultural codes. We treat the commercial advertisements as cultural texts and then we study and analyze them based on Rolan Barthes's semilogic approach. The primary findings of our analysis indicated that although these advertisements used religious and cultural symbols in their content in order to advertise commodities, they in fact used these symbols as an instrument to instigate the buying motif of their audience and did not contribute to development of religious teachings. The advertisements also used national symbols to construct motivating advertisements but these they were only used as slogans and clishe and not as a tools to improve national identity. Generally speaking, Iranian TV advertisements have not been successful in representing Irano-Islamic discourse and have not reached the targeted objectives made clear in constitution.

Political democracy has mainly developed in respect to the rights for electing and being elected in recent centuries. But by the rise of new social movements, political democracy is inclined to different. issues. nonetheless, it would seem that the development of democracy is in such a way that it does not oppose the current political premises in advanced industrial societies, nor does it reject the present socio-economic models. Thus this study argues that new social movements are conservative mainstreams, because they lack an advanced socio-economic alternative. meanwhile, new social movements, from the functional point of view, have a reinforcing role of maintaining political democracy, in final analysis, therefore, the new social movements, in terms of their nature, belong to the conservative forces.

A significant relation was also found between parents' educational level and occupation and children academic achievement.
