This research is going to achieve an analysis of the formation barriers of social relationship in Iran by studying proverbs. The relationship-the correct relationship, of course-as a base of human society is subject to the conditions studied by social science scientists-sociologists, specially-to different ways and we can find the type of relationship, by common proverbs, in a society whose people use them. These proverbs which are referred to as cultural sediments consist of cultural, political and social facts so that sociological research (study) on them can help better understanding of these facts, deservingly. The communicative action theory is used as a theoretical framework in this search. In fact, communicative and uncommunicative action through this theory has been accomplished. In this theory, Habermas explains various actions, but what which is important for him is communicative action. Random sampling is used to choose the proverbs and Derrida′s deconstruction is used to...

Sport participation, whether directly as an athlete or indirectly as a sport fan, is formed by social and psychological factors. Sociologically, the rate of athletic supports received from institutional factors such as family, school, peer group, and mass media, have important role in sport fan identification. The purpose of this paper is to study the effects of social institutions on sport socialization and its components such as sport identity, team identity, and sport behavior related to a sport fan. Theoretical framework of this article is based on Interaction theory. Questionnaire and in-depth interviews have been used for data collection. Relevant statistical tests, such as analysis of variance, regression, and Q-square test have been used for data analysis. The results of survey among 124 respondents in Guilan University demonstrate that peer group, mass media and siblings (sister/brother) respectively are the most important factors in the process of sport socialization between soccer fans. There are positive significant correlation between sport supports received and sport fan components (sport identity, team identity, and sport fandom-related behaviors). Also, there are positive significant correlations between the levels of sport identity and team identity with sport fandom-related behaviors.

Derrida has tried to be faced western philosophical tradition with a challenge that has been unique in its kind. The differance, metaphysics of presence, writing and speech are concepts that Derrida has used to construct his own theory.
