Food security in Iran: Edareh-ye Arzaq, 1910-1935
"Until recent times, Iran regularly had to cope with local or national famines. The various governments, until the second decade of the twentieth century, had neither a policy nor institutional arrangements to deal with grain shortages, artificial or not, and the resulting famines. In severe cases of famine governments might have temporarily intervened in the market, but usually they left care for the hungry to private philanthropy. Invariably, this private effort was inadequate when compared to needs. Although there were earlier incidental efforts, it was only as of 1918 that a beginning was made for more permanent and structural pro-active measures to prevent rather than to combat famine. The creation of the Edareh-ye arzaq or Alimentation Service in Tehran and Tabriz to ensure food security saved thousands of lives in the years that followed. Despite this result, its work is almost totally ignored; there is not even an encyclopedia article about its activities. In this study, Willem Floor discusses the early efforts to combat famine as well as the beginning of a more targeted and structural approach developed by Lambert Molitor in Tabriz during 1917-18 as well as its application in Tehran as of 1918. Whereas in Tabriz, after 1918, the approach was reactive, in Tehran a pro-active program was developed, which as of 1922 became part of the tasks of the Millspaugh mission. During 1926-27 there was even a quasi-national food security program. After Millspaugh's departure in 1927 the food security of Tehran became an entirely Iranian affair, which as of 1935 was transferred from the Alimentation Service to a State company that had a national food security responsibility." --
Energy; Alkahest of The Third Millennium
It is difficult to estimate the set of reserves that can ultimately be extracted in the world. Here we mean reserves that have the potential to produce energy and can be extracted at economical prices and without unsolvable extraction problems. However, the world's fossil resources are really limited, and if depletion of fossil resources is the norm, the world has considerable time to reduce its heavy dependence on fossil fuels and move to other alternative sources of energy supply. The main problem is that on the other hand, it takes decades to replace the supply of other types of energy. On the other hand, the time must come now to meet the needs and take appropriate action. One of the great advantages of wind energy and solar cells, especially for landlocked countries like Iran, is that they do not need water to generate electricity. Due to the reduction of water resources in recent years and the water conditions of many provinces in the state of water stress and more provinces benefit from the benefits of sunlight, changing the pattern of energy consumption to more use of new energy sources, especially solar energy should be Be on the agenda. There has been talk for years about the depletion of energy resources in the world. Interestingly, even in 1914, this issue was discussed and one of the American newspapers wrote that the world's oil reserves had been depleted for a maximum of ten years. Later in 1939, the US Department of the Interior announced that there were only 13 years left to run out of oil reserves. Over the past decade, advances in technology have led to more oil being extracted from oil fields, while high oil prices have made it more cost-effective for companies to search for harder-to-reach reserves. While there is still enough oil in known areas, forecasts show that the depletion of global reserves has led to more oil being discovered. Until recently, the environment was considered a fantasy topic and beyond the basic human needs. And the result has been a vital and universal issue from the ...

Opportunities and threats to mandatory law of child restraint usage in Iran
Background and Aim: About one-third of Iranian children mortality is caused by injuries from which 36% occur due to road traffic injuries. Using child restraint embedded in vehicles can reduce road traffic fatalities by 71% for neonates and 54% for children. Based on its effectiveness in reduction of fatality and prevention of injury severity, child restraint usage mandatory law is a priority. Therefore, this study was conducted to assess opportunities and threats to mandatory law of child restraint usage in Iran. Materials and Methods: Initially, a mixed methods research is carried out by a phenomenological qualitative study, a discussion session by traffic injuries' stakeholders was performed to assess & discuss the opportunities and threats to mandatory law of child restraint usage in Iran, by brain storming method to find the themes in the related topic. A structured questionnaire is later prepared and completed by the stakeholders in the area of road traffic injuries. Assigned scores of 0-100 were considered for each response and analysis of results was performed according to target themes & the total score of the filled questionnaires.Results: Overall, 28 stakeholders participated in the study. According to the stakeholders, traffic police department obtained the highest score of 90 (from 0-100) as an organization to establish the mandatory law of child restraint usage, and acquired the score of 100 for future enforcement and monitoring. As threats and obstacle to the mandatory law of child restraint usage, lack of television and media campaigns and child restraint law and legislation, obtained the highest scores of 85 & 70 respectively. And family sensitivity to their children's health, officials' support and national facilities for broadcasting, and community awareness to use child restraints had the highest scores among existing opportunities and facilities in the country, by scores of 83, 69 and 68 respectively.Conclusion: Due to sensitivity of the family about their children's health & safety, and officials' support to safety establishment through media campaigns, implementation and applicability of child restraint usage laws and legislations, and subsequent enforcement and monitoring seem practical.

بررسی تعهدات زیستمحیطی دولتها در خصوص محصولات تراریخته در پرتو اصول حقوق بینالملل محیط زیست، اتحادیه اروپا و ایران ; The Studying of Governments' Environmental Obligations on Genetically Modified Organism (GMO) in the light of the International Environmetal Law, European Union and Iran
زمینه و هدف: کمبود مواد غذایی، تغییرات اقلیمی و دیگر عوامل سبب شده تا تولید گیاهان تغییر شکلیافته ژنتیکی (محصولات تراریخته) از دهه 90 میلادی مورد توجه قرار گیرد. تولید این گیاهان همانگونه که موجب امیدواری در رفع گرسنگی بود، به دلیل تأثیر احتمالی بر محیط زیست موج نگرانی را نیز برانگیخت. هدف از این تحقیق، بررسی تعهدات زیستمحیطی دولتها در حوزه محصولات تراریخته در پرتو اصول حقوق بینالملل محیط زیست، اتحادیه اروپا و ایران است. مواد و روشها: نوشتار حاضر به شیوه توصیفی ـ تحلیلی ابتدا اصول پیشگفته حاکم در حقوق بینالملل محیط زیست را بررسی میکند تا دریابد تعهدات زیستمحیطی دولتها درباره محصولات تراریخته از نظر اصول حقوق بینالملل چگونه است و سپس رویکرد اختصاصی اتحادیه اروپا را بررسی و تطبیق داده و بالاخره گذرا این وضعیت را در ایران مرور میکند. یافتهها: اتحادیه اروپا برخلاف ایالات متحده دیدگاهی احتیاطآمیز توأم با سختگیری در حمایت از مصرفکننده و محیط زیست پیش گرفته که ریشه در اصول کلی حقوق بینالملل محیط زیست دارد. اصولی مانند توسعه پایدار، اقدام احتیاطی، ارزیابی و اطلاعرسانی که به جمع رعایت مصالح دولتها در دستیابی به توسعه و پیشرفت و حفظ محیط زیست میانجامد، در حالی که در ایران از سویی قوانین حمایتی از محیط زیست به صورت کارآمد تصویب نشده است و یا اینکه در برخی موارد محیط زیست و حمایت از آن مغفول مانده است. ملاحظات اخلاقی: در تمام مراحل نگارش پژوهش حاضر، ضمن رعایت اصالت متون، صداقت و امانتداری، رعایت شده است. نتیجهگیری: نتایج این جستار نشان میدهد که دولتها در خصوص محصولات تراریخته متعهد به رعایت اصول کلی یا عرفی توسعه پایدار، اقدام احتیاطی، ارزیابی و اطلاعرسانی بوده و رعایت اصول مزبور بهترین راهکار جهت صیانت از حقوق مصرفکننده و حمایت از محیط زیست است. ; Background and Aim: Food scarcity, climate change and other factors have led to the production of genetically modified crops (transgenic crops) since the 1990s. The production of these plants, as they had hoped to eliminate hunger, also raised concerns about the potential impact on the environment. The purpose of this study is to examine the Governments' Environmental Obligations on Genetically Modified Organism (GMO) in the light of the International Environmetal Law, European Union and Iran. Materials and Methods: The present paper is descriptive-analytical paper and firstly examines the aforementioned principles of international environmental law in order to understand what is the environmental commitment and obligation of governments in the process of cultivation and supply for transgenic products from the perspective of international law. Then, it examines and applies the EU-specific approach and finally reviews this situation in Iran. Findings: The European Union, unlike United States, has taken a cautious approach to consumer and environmental protection. This approach is rooted in the general principles of international environmental law. Principles such as sustainable development, precautionary principle and the principle of notification that bring together the interests of governments in achieving development, improvement and environmental protection, while in Iran,It has not been enacted environmental laws effectively on the GMO or in some cases the environment and its protection have been neglected. Ethical Considerations: In order to organize this research, while observing the authenticity of the texts, honesty and fidelity have been observed. Conclusion: The results show that governments are committed to adhering to the general or customary principles of sustainable development, precautionary principle and the principle of notification in the process of cultivating and supplying for Genetically Modified Organism (GMO), and adhering to these principles is the best way to safeguard consumer rights.
