The city has long been a strategic site for the exploration of many major subjects such as social relations, socio-political conflicts, social order, class and power. This places cities at the heart of sociology. A space capable of producing and accumulating wealth, power, architecture, memory, collective identity and symbolic systems. The city of Abadan in the last decade of the thirteenth century (1910) until 1977 and to this day has been a city built by oil capitalism which makes it a site for urban development and conflict and this leads to form a variety of socio-urban phenomena. In this study, multiple methods and techniques includes field observation, assessing documents and historical sources, in-depth interviews, and oral history were used to study the development and conflict of the city. The results show that Abadan has been both an experience of socio-cultural development as well as an experience of conflict, duality, domination, hierarchy, and class relations. In the periods of 1912 to 1932, 1932 to 1952, and the early of 1952s to 1979, the process of development and conflict has changed, but the main trend has been to increase development and decrease conflict. Especially in the 1962s and 1972s, the idea of a developed Abadan that emerged during the nationalization of the oil industry sustained the development rather than conflict, but in general, both of these narratives have been formed together and under the influence of the oil industry.

"The right to the city", the notion that Lefebvre introduced, has known as birth of a global social movement which seeks to reveal the legitimacy of all residents to city, beyond the class, racial and gender differences in fair access to the city. Sidewalks (Pedestrians), regardless of the role of the passageway, are recognized as one of the most important areas of social life, so that there is an undeniable necessity to facilitate equal access to all citizens in the context of this intellectual framework. Therefore, the present study seeks to identify obstacles to the right of women to these spaces and the quality of their presence in such spaces.

The findings were based on thematic analysis, statistical description, and spatial analysis and clustering; Semi-in-depth interview, researcher-made questionnaire and drawing of urban maps were used. The field of research was 13 urban areas of Mashhad in 2019. The unit of observation of individuals has been in the household procedure and at the level of spatial analysis of urban blocks. The alpha of the research is equal to (0. 80).

Finally, promoting happiness according to the clustering test between regions (1, 2, 4, 5) is below average and the citizens of regions (3, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 and Samen) the upper average is obtained.

Social capital has positive and negative consequences as social relations, trust and norms. The quantity and quality of relationships in a society play a central role in the type and consequence of social capital. The social capital in Iran more intra-group. Does such social capital play a role in reproducing social inequality? The research method was qualitative and data gathering was done through in-depth interviews with 12 people in the second half of 2017 in Sanandaj. The analysis of the findings has resulted in the extraction of a paradigm model with three main categories: social relations context, intergroup capital (core category) and social inequality. The results showed that many relatives, traditional family relationships and the rituals associated with it were causal conditions that led to intra-group social capital. Using Strategies such as ethnocentrism, nepotism and relationships rather than rules by actors with the underlying economic, political and cultural society and confounding factors such as bureaucracy and lack of supervision led to consequences such as favoritism, nepotism and variation in the distribution of resources All of which points to the reproduction of social inequality in society. It is therefore necessary to consider intra-group social capital in the analysis of social inequality as well as in the distribution of public resources.

Results indicates there is a relationship between generational period and leisure in virtual social networks, there is also a reverse relationship duration of use of the virtual social networks and interaction between generations. With increase the time duration uses of these leisure, reduction occurs in intergenerational communication in the family. Different generational groups communicate in virtual social networks. There is no relationship between intergenerational communication and audience in the virtual social networks, and communication with family and relatives, did not result strengthening generational interaction. Increased membership in social networks has caused change the leisure pattern towards an active in cyberspace; such condition has the considerable effect on intergenerational relationships and changes in lifestyle.
