  • Modernizing the Public Space: Gender Identities
    MODERNIZING THE PUBLIC SPACE: GENDER IDENTITIES, MULTIPLE MODERNITIES, AND SPACE POLITICS IN TEHRAN A DISSERTATION IN Geosciences and Sociology Presented to the Faculty of the University of Missouri-Kansas City in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY by NAZGOL BAGHERI Bachelor of Architecture, 2004 Bachelor of Computer Science, 2006 Master of Urban Design, 2007 Shahid Beheshti University, Tehran, Iran Kansas City, Missouri 2013 © 2013 NAZGOL BAGHERI ALL RIGHTS RESERVED MODERNIZING THE PUBLIC SPACE: GENDER IDENTITIES, MULTIPLE MODERNITIES, AND SPACE POLITICS IN TEHRAN Nazgol Bagheri, Candidate for the Doctor of Philosophy Degree University of Missouri - Kansas City, 2013 ABSTRACT After the Islamic Revolution of 1979 in Iran, surprisingly, the presence of Iranian women in public spaces dramatically increased. Despite this recent change in women’s presence in public spaces, Iranian women, like in many other Muslim-majority societies in the Middle East, are still invisible in Western scholarship, not because of their hijabs but because of the political difficulties of doing field research in Iran. This dissertation serves as a timely contribution to the limited post-revolutionary ethnographic studies on Iranian women. The goal, here, is not to challenge the mainly Western critics of modern and often privatized public spaces, but instead, is to enrich the existing theories through including experiences of a more diverse group. Focusing on the women’s experience, preferences, and use of public spaces in Tehran through participant observation and interviews, photography, architectural sketching as well as GIS spatial analysis, I have painted a picture of the complicated relationship between the architecture styles, the gendering of spatial boundaries, and the contingent nature of public spaces that goes beyond the simple dichotomy of female- male, private-public, and modern-traditional.

A. H. Mirzahosseini, Ph.D. U.S. – Iran Symposium on “Urban Air Pollution in Megacities” Beckman Center of National Academies of Sciences & Engineering Irvine, California 1 September 3-5, 2013 Outline • Background • Methodology • Field Measurement • Interpolation Using IDW Model • Cancer Risk Assessment • Conclusions 2 Background 3 Background Main sources of ambient Benzene [ATSDR, 2007]: 1. The vehicles’ exhaust 2. Gasoline evaporation 3. Leakage from natural gas 4. Emissions from the use of solvents and paints, 5. Using as an additive to unleaded gasoline,… Benzene is an aromatic volatile organic compound characterized by US EPA as a “known” human carcinogen for all routes of exposure and is clasified by the International Association on the Risks of Cancer [IARC, 1987] as class 1 carcinogen. 4 Background Annual averages of Benzene concentration have been measured in various European regions (Cocheo et al. 2000; Skov et al. 2001). The annual average concentrations of benzene in metropolitans have ranged from a almost zero to more than 6.25 ppb (Anabtawi et al. 1996). In Japan, the ambient standard for benzene concentration has been set to be 0.69 ppb (Laowagul and Yoshizumi, 2009). Iran Department of the Environment (DoE) and US EPA have set the standard for the ambient Benzene concentration levels to be 1.56 ppb [Iran DOE, 2010]. 5 Background Despite the regulations established, benzene concentrations and cancer risk assessment have not been investigated in Tehran due to the lack of data for ambient benzene concentration levels.

    Tribunal Arbitral du Sport Court of Arbitration for Sport Arbitration CAS ad hoc Division (OG Rio) 16/028 Behdad Salimi & National Olympic Committee of the Islamic Republic of Iran (NOCIRI) v. International Weightlifting Federation (IWF), award of 21 August 2016 Panel: Mrs Carol Roberts (Canada), President; Mrs Margarita Echeverria (Costa Rica); Mr Mohammed Abdel Raouf (Egypt) Weightlifting Decision of the Jury overturning a decision of the referees Field of play decision CAS jurisprudence has consistently reaffirmed that CAS arbitrators do not overturn the decisions made on the playing field by judges, referees, umpires or other officials charged with applying the rules of the game unless there is some evidence, which generally must be direct evidence that the rule was applied in arbitrarily or in bad faith. CAS arbitrators are not specifically trained in the rules of any or all sports and do not have the advantage of being present to observe the events. It would be unfair to a decision‐maker as well as to athletes to interfere with decisions made by match officials, who are the technical experts, in these circumstances. Other practical reasons for the “field of play” doctrine include the prevention of constant interruptions of the game by appeals to a judge or an arbitrator. 1 PARTIES 1. The First Applicant is an athlete from Iran in the sport of weightlifting (the “Athlete”). 2. The Second Applicant is the National Olympic Committee of the Islamic Republic of Iran (“NOCIRI”). 3. The Respondent is the International Weightlifting Federation (the “IWF”). 4. The first interested party is the International Olympic Committee (the “IOC”).
