The following article seeks to understand the power relations participating in the discourse formation of Iran's water problem in “Shargh” and “Iran” newspapers. To this end, critical discourse analysis has been applied and 14 samples “Shargh” and “Iran” newspapers from 2013/8/3 to 2020/3/19 have been reviewed. According to the findings, some texts of the “Shargh” newspaper were published with the aim of laying the groundwork for implementation of the plans and policies of the 11th and 12th governments programs. In “Iran” newspaper, the role of officials and policy makers in creating the crisis and their responsibility in solving it is invisible. Furthermore, some of the “Iran” newspaper texts indirectly serve to vindicate government’s failure in solving the water crisis and reduce the expectations from the government. In “Iran” newspaper, people are blamed for not participating in solving the problem. In this way, the structures that prevent people's participation are become invisible and people's participation is reduced to saving. “Iran” newspaper portrays the society as a savior and discourages them from changing government policies. Based on the results, the effect of political powers on the formation of the water problem discourse in these newspapers is evident. Furthermore, water issue has become an excuse to make the opposition party appear ineffective, reduce expectations from the 11th and 12th governments, and eliminate responsibility from the governments and parliamentarians.

In the 2013 elections, for the second time, debates were held in which controversial criticism was raised; Therefore, the present study examines the political-media waves created by the debates in this election. Each debate has a special impact on the news media, and the present study uses quantitative and qualitative content analysis to categorize the news from each debate, taking into account criteria such as the amount of news coverage, the time distribution of coverage in several different media; The issues raised in the newspapers were classified as political waves. Political waves, following Wolfsfeld in the theoretical model of politics-media-politics, first begin in the political environment (here the same arena of debate), are formed in the media with extensive coverage and storytelling, and while inflamed in the political space, with reaction and Changes in the political environment are being pursued. In the analysis of the detected waves, this logic was considered so that the waves could be examined more deeply. In this election period, the reflection of all the debates was followed separately in 14 newspapers from two factions; The election sparked "protests over the way debates were held," "security space," and "political challenges."

The Research Evaluates new media impacts on Iranian media system. It seems that new media in Iran these days deeply effect on mainstream media and even in some cases makes them to lose their functions. This research tries to evaluate new media impacts on Iranian mainstream media’s internal mechanisms and also relations between them with the people and with the political and economic system. The new media impacts on mainstream media and their relations with system were evaluated by qualitative grounded theory methodology and new media impacts on their relations with the people were evaluated by qualitative survey methodology. Eventually researchers concluded that new media by themselves did not reduce the mainstream media consumption but the tough controls and lack of professionalism in mainstream media were the critical cause of consumption, trustfulness and influence decline so new media rise only has amplified these consequences. In fact, powers and the people have immigrated to new media because of weak mainstream media but they could not entirely alternate with mainstream media. In conclusion, Thesis found a kind of dislocation in Iranian media system in which both mainstream and new media as a kind of public eservice are not in their expected locations.

This research explains "peace journalism" which is regarded as a new concept in worldwide journalism literature. The main goal of this research will help to explain and promote the level of theoretical literature of peace journalism. To this end, the indicators and values of this kind of journalism are defined to evaluate how much six large circulation newspapers applied the said standards during the war between coalition forces and Iraqi military force. The research is based on the Galtung theory and four main approaches of peace journalism (Solution-oriented approach, Process-oriented approach, Truth-oriented approach and People-oriented approach) and we have added two key principles in journalism: professional and moral standards. The researchers assume that interaction between those four approaches and the two principles could lead to sustainable peace for newspapers. After figuring out and explaining the values and approaches of peace journalism by content analysis, the study shows that the above newspapers didn’t applied the four mentioned approaches. In fact, the newspapers paid more attention on people-oriented. Having cultural proximity with Iraq, the Iranian newspapers used people-oriented approach during the war. In other word, the six daily papers just reflected the “innocence of Iraqi people” during the war and the other war dimensions were less addressed by them. Thus, these newspapers had not any correspondent in Iraq to coverage the war news; instead, descriptive reports, analytic and investigative reports were published.

With increasing of the expanding role of the cyberspace in social life, fundamental questions has been created such as about the social and political effects of the cyberspace and its related technologies. The aim of this study is to analyze the situation of Facebook social network with the approach of the Habermasian’s public sphere and possibility of the formation of virtual public sphere.
