Introduction and purposes: Learning organization is a mission; it's not by developed country in the entire world used crisis management courses and texts in university and colleague. To know this you can see Learning organization management in several natural and disnature Learning organization.Method: According the importance of topic, learning organization criteria in I.A.U.this research is applied research. Population is all of the top and middle management and faculty from I.A.U.in this research use Cochran model to select sample of population 385 persons.Finding: The result of research shows, the ideal relationship between an organization and its knowledge management Program should mirror the pattern of "courtship," "engagement", and "marriage" that occurs in romantic love, and, to a degree, this already has begun to take shape. After all, we have observed knowledge management activities in organizations for quite some time. The field of knowledge Management has its roots in the works of philosophers who spent much effort probing the epistemological issues of knowledge.Results: According to the study in this research, suggested: In discussion with senior managers at the regional offices, we learnt that the regional approach rather than an organization-wide endeavor gives the Benefit of shorter lead-time between thought and action. Organization-wide endeavors take years to be executed owing to the sheer mass of personnel, networks, and inter-relationships that require management. Regional efforts are substantially less time-consuming owing to the close-knit ties and commonality found between local offices. One adverse effect of this strategy was the difficulty in sharing knowledge beyond the individual regions. Since each region deployed its own tools and initiatives to capture and store knowledge, exchanges between regions became Cumbersome, with email as the only viable exchange mechanism.

Preface and purpose of research: The purpose of this research is to consider the amount of managers and experts connection with process of cultural planning and measuring its effect on the degree of tendency towards the essence purpose of cultural organizations. The result of the research shows that the strategic range of planninglong-term and practical range of planning-short term has partly great effect on managers and experts tendency towards essence purposes of cultural organizations.The research method: This research is practical from the purpose side and has a descriptive and measurement nature from the method side which is based on correlation, that researcher has collected the data by research-mode tests and by whole net complement census in a period of time.Findings: Among the effects of planning process, 5 dimensions, the most effect belongs to the notification amount of planning contents and it has party a great effect on managers and experts degree of tendency towards the essence purposes of organizations. After that the amount of participation in producing plans has a good effect on the degree of tendency and in the 3rd step amount of agreement with the routine planning has affected this tendency partly well. Among these basis variants background of cooperation has affected tendency towards the essence purposes. It means that if the people have more background of cooperation, their tendency increases towards their organizations essence purposes.Results: On the base of this researches findings, cultural planning as a part of cultural organizations technical knowledge doesn’t have any effect per se, on the tendency of planning experts and cultural managers towards the essence purposes of organizations and it is not possible to make changes by prophecy planning to an organization, and planning executors are human capitals that their education, background, power of thinking and practicing are qualified for giving ideas, planning and cooperation in edited plans, so being inattention to them means not assisting them, and this will cause the purpose of organizations not to be done completely.

Introduction and research objective: Presently, the culture of economics in some countries is given top priority against other sectors of civilian economics. This important is not only due to the economical values of culture but also due to the outmost important effects which are able to boost the civilian economics both direct and indirect. In Iran also, the culture economics has its own specific importance and it includes industries such as cinema, theater, mass media, publications, tourism and sports. Among these, cinema industries as an attractive phenomenon is much more effective with compare to other cultural products and is considered as a center of attraction and interests not only by all the culture and art lovely people but also by the sensitive politicians and economists too. Unfortunately, cinema demand in Iran has been decreased during last 3 decades. Therefore, in view of such importance issue, this paper is aimed at estimating the function of demand for cinema in Iran based on the Iran's time series data during 1985-2007 periods.Research Methodology: this research tries to use Case and Field Study Research Method. Also according to Classic demand theory and econometric models is used Ordinary Least Square Technique (OLS) for function of demand for cinema in Iran. This estimation is carried out by Eviews economical modeling package.Findings: In this research we have selected the best linerly equation as function of demand for cinema in Iran after estimation some equations and tested them. Regarding cinema demand in Iran, average price of ticket, and income, we found all relevant test statistics indicate that there is relation between these variables. Here, cinema attendance in Iran (cinema demand) as dependent variable and other variables such as ticket price, population and income are independent.Conclusion: We start our analysis with the specification of several approaches for cinema demand. According to calculation all of cinema demands elasticity, we analyzed the effective factors on cinema demand in Iran, such as iterance cost, consumers income index and population growth during 1985-2007 periods in this paper. However, in this study we found cinema demand to be inelastic and elastic with respect to price and income. Thus, cinema in Iran as cultural good from economic of viewpoint may indeed be seen as a luxury good.

Wittgenstein's account of philosophy and the researches performed by him in the field of human behavior has got vast consequences on humanities and the studies on human being as a social and cultural creature. As the study of these phenomena is, in fact, the study of voluntary behavior of human being-any behavior subsumes under norms and criteria which have certain rules and normative constrains, having had definite reasons for producing and consuming these productions-Wittgenstein's philosophy could provide a convincing philosophical and logical background to explain the impact of culture on creating an artwork.Method of this research is documentary and the results are obtained from the documents which are gleaned from Wittgenstein’s philosophical system.According to later Wittgenstein, language is the context of the emergence of cultural and social phenomena, and art, as a language, is related to the culture and the form of life of a linguistic community.So the creation of an artwork occurs in a cultural context.

Introduction and purposes: Today’s crisis management is important branch of management. By developed country in the entire world used crisis management courses and texts in university and colleague.

Population is all of the top and middle management and faculty from I.A.U.in this research use Cochran model to select sample of population 479 persons.Finding: The result of research shows, according the managers and faculty ideas, cultural-social dimension has a les differentiation and political dimension has more differentiation to other dimension in this research. In other hand political dimension is in crisis circumstance.Results: According to the study in this research, suggested: In educational research and technology dimension must be attention: The term engagement has different meanings depending on its context. We most commonly hear the word when we say that two people are engaged to be married. This condition normally means that they are seriously committed to each other’s ell being, have mutual romantic feelings, understand each other’s behavior well enough to accept one another, and are planning a happy future together. For a marriage to be successful, the two parties must be seriously interested in each other. They must be able to understand how each complements the other. Ideally, there will be areas to complement and areas where the two’s skills overlap. They must enjoy spending time together, seeking advice from each other, playing together, and even working hard together. They must have a common dream that guides their actions. Unless most or all of these conditions are met, chances are that the two parties will eventually go their separate ways.
