Social Analysis of Modernization Impacts on Iranian Families and the Necessity of Planning an Iranian-Islamic Example

Abstract

Social institutions have not changed equally, completely and simultaneously under the impact of modernization process. Different levels of the family construction have been formed disharmoniously with social changes. That is why we are witnessing incompatible coactions among a some parts of traditional family norms on one side, and the values arisen from modernization. So that in some cases this issue has become a reason for harms and family problems because of incompatibility with the present social changes. In such conditions, families cannot be encouraged to accept traditional family norms, nor are they expected to accept modern system norms. This article studies the theoretical controversies about the future of the family and suggests the formation of a family example to go with the Iranian-Islamic identity and with applying new elements compatible with new changes which can provide the capabilities to prevent issues and social harms.
