Abstract:   (1271 Views)
The Iranian-Islamic lifestyle, as the currently emphasized lifestyle of Iran, along with fulfilling the material and spiritual needs of the citizens, can be manifested in all parts of people's lives, such as residential areas. However, due to the introduction of unknown ideas in the form of modernism, the neighborhoods have faced a kind of identity crisis and lack of place belonging, the older neighborhoods have been deteriorated and worn out, and the new neighborhoods have been oriented towards western styles. Therefore, this research aims to evaluate the indicators of Iranian-Islamic lifestyle in urban neighborhoods with a case study of Maghsodieh neighborhood from the historical context and Yaghchian neighborhood from the newly founded context of Tabriz metropolis. In this applied and descriptive-analytical research; the required data and information have been collected through a questionnaire that was randomly distributed among 386 citizens of the two studied neighborhoods. In this regard, in order to evaluate the indicators of Iranian-Islamic lifestyle in the studied urban neighborhoods, the one-sample T-test was employed, and to compare the mentioned two neighborhoods, the independent T-test was used in the form of SPSS software. In this regard, the results of the research have shown that the indicators of Iranian-Islamic lifestyle indicators in urban areas are in an average to good condition and that the condition of the indicators is better in Maghsodieh neighborhood than in Yaghchian neighborhood. In fact, the lifestyle in historical neighborhoods (particularly Maghsodieh neighborhood) is more Iranian-Islamic than the newly founded neighborhoods (especially Yaghchian neighborhood). Historical neighborhoods are more closely aligned with the Iranian-Islamic lifestyle than the newly founded neighborhoods which are generally built with western urban planning principles, due to their age and identity and adherence to Iranian-Islamic urban planning standards.
