As a major maritime power strategically situated along critical waterways, analyzing the intersections between Iran's blue economy goals, evolving maritime policies and sophisticated global diplomatic engagements is pivotal. This study utilizes qualitative techniques and international relations theories to conduct an in-depth investigation into Iran's strategic calculus across these realms. The purpose is to unravel the complex balancing of pragmatic interests, constraints, and selective cooperation opportunities shaping Iran's maritime maneuvering. Extensive document analysis and illustrative case studies are systematically employed to comprehensively analyze Iran's sector-specific strategies, stances on maritime laws and regimes, key international collaborations. The findings reveal that while developmental aspirations in priority blue economy sectors dominate Iran's interests, it faces multifaceted constraints from sanctions, disputes and domestic limitations which require nuanced navigation. Opportunities to expand regional influence through strategic alignments exist but necessitate enhanced dispute resolution, diplomatic creativity and sustainable regional collaboration to fully materialize mutual gains. Overall, the study provides seminal insights into Iran's maritime positioning, highlighting the overarching importance of adaptability, vision, and cooperation despite geopolitical tensions in advancing shared governance of vital waterways and collective maritime interests.

Résumé Une partie considérable de la littérature est née du voyage. L’interaction constante de la littérature avec le voyage et le déplacement entraîne la critique littéraire à évoquer de plus en plus la question de l’espace et de l’altérité dans la littérature. Le parcours littéraire et personnel de Zoya Pirzad, romancière iranienne contemporaine, est toujours marqué par le déplacement. Ses textes entretenant un rapport mobile à l’espace, nous permettent d’interroger les identités par le biais de l’espace. D'ailleurs, les notions de "l'autrui" et de "l’altérité" constituent les éléments inséparables des écritures de Pirzad plus présentes dans C’est moi qui éteint les lumières et On s'y fera. L’altérité, ce concept d’origine philosophique a été redéfinie et élaborée récemment par les nombreux critiques et théoriciens. Selon Emanuel Levinas, dans une relation d'altérité, il y a un engagement réciproque, une responsabilité de l'un envers l'autre (Levinas, 1998 : 65). C’est pour cette raison qu’après avoir découvert autrui, on prend conscience de notre responsabilité. Dans ces deux œuvres, Pirzad raconte les expériences de la vie des personnages féminins, Clarisse et Arezou. Dans cette présente recherche nous étudierons quel rapport les personnages féminins entretient avec l’espace et l'altérité et comment ce dernier entraine chez elles la responsabilité.

Teachers may come across a point in their career at which they would ponder upon choosing to stay or withdraw from their job. Several conditions in their organization would lead them to the ultimate decision. This study aims at providing enhanced awareness of one of the components that might lead instructors to their determination with respect to withdraw from or stay at their teaching position at an institution. Consequently, the link between collective instructor efficacy and withdrawal intention was scrutinized. Data was gathered through an online survey to collect information from Iranian EFL teachers using two questionnaires. The findings of this analysis noted that there exists a negative association between instructors’ collective efficacy and withdrawal intention. As collaborative competence perceptions elevate in teachers, their withdrawal intent is likely to drop. Furthermore, another research question was whether it was possible for collective efficacy subscales to predict withdrawal intention or not. Instructional strategies and student discipline are subsets of collective efficacy. Student discipline was reported to predict to some extent variability in withdrawal intention. It was also concluded that headmasters and educational leaders need to focus on collective efficacy as an asset to diminish the unfavorable attrition of staff members.

Objective: One of the most common childhood disorders is attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). The objective of the present study was to compare the effectiveness of child-parent relationship trianing and Barkley’s parent training in behavioral-emotional problems of children with ADHD.Methods: The research method was quasi-experimental with pretest-posttest and follow-up. The statistical population of the study included all mothers with a son with ADHD. These mothers’ children were studying in one of the primary schools in Ahvaz in the academic year 2021-2022. They were selected through random clusters sampling method and randomly were assigned to child- parent relationship therapy (n = 15), Barkley's parent training (n = 15) and control (n = 15) groups. Moreover, Clinical interview, Children’s Behavior Checklist and SNAP-IV training Scale were instruments of collecting data. Achenbach Behavior Scale was used to collect data. The child-parent relationship group participated in ten 60-minute sessions; the Barkley’s parent training group participated in fifteen 60-minute sessions. However, the control group did not receive any intervention. Data were analyzed using mixed analysis of variance using SPSS software (version 25).Results:  The results of intragroup effects showed that child-parent relationship therapy and Barkley’s parent training were effective in the behavioral-emotional problems in the posttest phase (P < 0.05); they reduced children's emotional-behavioral problems. However, the effects were not sustained (P < 0.05). In addition, there was no significant difference between the effectiveness of child-parent relationship therapy and Barkley’s parent training in children's emotional-behavioral problems (P < 0.05).Conclusion: According to the results of the study, child-parent relationship therapy and Barkley’s parent training were effective in emotional-behavioral problems of children with ADHD. Therefore, clinical psychologists and counselors are recommended to use these methods to reduce emotional-behavioral problems of children with ADHD.
