As an Islamic obligation in Iran’s Society, the Hijab doctrine was regarded by Pahlavi Dynasty as an impediment in the way of development. Therefore, the “politics of Nudism” is pursued by the regime. It was not acceptable to the people. The current research argues that Islamic Schools established during the reign of second Pahlavi, from Social Capital perspective, were an influential and significant institutions that acted as a network, which possessing a strong norms such as “Hijab”, contributed greatly to the strengthening of hijab culture in two ways: first, because observing hijab rules in these schools was obligatory, it reinforced the culture of wearing hijab among students and their families. Secondly, from social capital point of view, these networks are suitable places for trustful cooperation. So, with continued governance of Hijab culture in these schools, it naturally opposed the “politics of Nudism” and, therefore, contributed to strengthening of Hijab culture.

The present study attempts to evaluate values and norms among students in the dormitories of University of Gilan in 1385-86. 11 structure –including 10 independent variable and 1 (Anomy) for the dependant variable- has been created in order to recognize cited values and norms. The study is descriptive-analytical, using questionnaire and standard interview. Population includes all the students in dormitories of Gilan University (2917 person). In sampling 304 students were chosen. The questionnaire was self-created and its validity was verified through testing by experts. Reliability of achieved through Cronbach’s Alpha coefficient in pilot-study and avoiding some questions in every 11 structures to gain more than 70% in Alpha coefficient. Results show the average anomy in girl dormitory is 3.64. T-Test too shows a meaningful difference in Anomy between two dormitories. Even in boy’s dormitory which has a lesser anomy (2.76), it is near to 3. However, results show that social control mechanism (Punishment) in both dormitories is inefficient. In conclusion it could be said that there is a kind of social imbalance in both dormitories which should be considered in planning to encounter future possible social crises.

First of all, the present study would explain 6-layer dimensions of culture –including beliefs, values, and norms (as the core of culture), and symbols, rituals, and customs, technologies, skills, and innovations (as the culture surface). Then, applying communication theories besides exploring the concept of “culture-building” involving culture-admission (affecting both core and surface of culture) and culture-orientation (affecting culture’s surface); it would analyze the cultural affects media has in thoughts, normalizing, symbolizing, socialization, modeling, and innovation. The assessed hypothesis emphasizes that in the core of culture, media play an educational and stabilizing role in culture-admission process, while in the surface of culture –the culture-orientation process- they could transform behaviors and social models.
