Answer:

ranian Culture and Tradition

Culture Curation

Iran (Islamic Republic of Iran) is a country in southwest Asian, neighboring Turkmenistan, Azerbaijan and Armenia on the north, Afghanistan and Pakistan on the east, and Turkey and Iraq on the west. Iran holds an important position in international energy security and world economy as a result of its large reserves of petroleum and natural gas.

This blog will give you a snapshot into Iranian culture and tradition.

Culture

Farsi, the official language of Iran, is historically one of the most prominent languages of the Middle East and extended regions. Iranian culture is one of the oldest in the region, and it has influenced cultures like Italy, Macedonia, Greece, Russia, the Arabian Peninsula, and parts of Asia. Islam is practiced by the majority of Iranians and governs their personal, political, economic and legal lives.

The Persian calendar is a solar calendar, however, some of the official religious Islamic and Shia holidays are based on a lunar calendar. Government official working days are from Saturday to Wednesday.

Family

In Iran, family matters are very important, as they take their responsibilities to their family very seriously. Women are to be protected and taken care of and it is inappropriate to ask questions about an Iranian’s wife or other female relatives. Their loyalty to the family comes before everything.

Typical wedding rituals occur in two stages. The first stage, Aghd, represents the legal aspect of marriage in Iran, where the bride and groom sign a marriage contract, usually in the bride’s home. The second phase, Jashn-e Aroosi, is the wedding reception, where feasts and celebrations are held.

Arts and Literature

Iran has a great art heritage visible in architecture, paintings, calligraphy and poetry. This heritage was translated to several languages and influenced many cultures. Contemporary literature was influenced by classical Persian poetry although it reflects the particularities of modern day Iran. Houshang Moradi-Kermani, is one of the most famous modern Iranian writers and is considered the most translated modern Iranian author.

Iranian films are celebrated and internationally acclaimed. The films have won 300 international awards in the past 10 years. The best known Persian directors are Abbas Kiarostami, Majid Majidi, and Asghar Farhadi.

Iran has a long history of fine silk and wool rug weaving, that is why Persian rugs are internationally known as the most beautiful across the world. Iran produces more rugs and carpets than all other countries put together.

Etiquette and Customs in Iran

If you are planning to conduct business with Iranian people, below are some important rules for etiquette and customs that should be observed.

The most common greeting is “salaam alaykum” or more simply “salaam” which means “peace”.

Introductions are generally restricted to members of the same sex since men and women socialize separately.

When Iranians greet each other they take their time and converse about general things.

Try to never be late, punctuality is appreciated.

Show respect for elders by greeting them first.

Iranians prefer to do business with those they know and respect, therefore they expect to spend time cultivating a personal relationship before business is conducted.

Iranians are deliberate negotiators and can drive a hard bargain.

Companies are hierarchical. Decisions are made at the top of the company, either by one person or a small council.

Business attire is formal and conservative.

When presenting business cards, it is recommended to have one side of your card translated into Farsi, and to present your card so the Farsi side faces the recipient.

Most sociologists accept that most of what we now recognize as medicine is a consequence of developments in Western society over
Airida [17]

This question has no answer, as it explains the DEVELOPMENTS IN MEDICINE IN WESTERN SOCIETY OVER THE PAST THREE CENTURIES or safe to say this isn't exactly a question, rather it is a list of statements Sociologists are likely to develop in reference to the development of medicine in the western culture.

For instance, Sociologist is a scientist that studies the subject SOCIOLOGY which in turn is the study of society, human social interaction and the rules and processes that bind and separate people not only as individuals, but as members of associations, groups and institutions.

With this definition of Sociologist and Sociology, we can deduce that the listed statement;

(a. a trend toward seeing the origins and treatments of disease as physical and explicable in scientific terms

b. the acceptance of the hospital as the setting within which to treat serious illnesses

c. the development of the medical profession as a body with codes of ethics and significant social power

d. the requirement that medical training be systematic and long term) are likely what Sociologist will include in the development of medicine.

Answer:

Negative

Enemies usually refer to bad guys. So if it is a "common enemy" then it is a common bad guy that everyone knows about. It can also mean that you and someone else share an enemy, but that is stilll negative.

lina2011 [118]
I think that the TTIP (Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership ) is a prime example of this, and some example of media failing to report on it are the media in the US, UK, Norway, Germany and Spain.

The TTIP is a trade agreement which will very much change the nature of trade, the quality of the products and personal freedom in the countries, yet, it's hidden both by the Media and by the governments.
