This article is of practical type and has been done in a descriptive contextual-case type (because it is not generalizable to other countries) and with a mixed approach (quantitative and qualitative analysis). The time domain is the collection of data required for the research of the last  years and its location is the training and research centers of the Armed Forces such as the Higher National Defense University, Davos Aja, the Faculty of International Relations of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Shahid Sayad Shirazi Information Training Center. According to the research findings, it can be concluded that the first and most important way to reduce or neutralize the negative effects of the presence of regional countries present in the Republic of Azerbaijan, expand diplomatic relations and clarify the strategy of the Islamic Republic of Iran towards neighbors and After that, there is building trust among them. In the next step, strengthening the naval power of the Islamic Republic of Iran in the Caspian Sea and the extensive and powerful presence of ground and air forces, especially air defense in the northwestern borders of the country to neutralize the negative effects of this presence on national security of the Islamic Republic of Iran https://www.sqts.ir/article_149014.html Today, with the advent of cyberspace and the expansion of social networks, users have a wide range of activities in social networks that the importance of issues and their impacts on users have led to extensive analysis in this area, so that this emerging field could be used to improve services to users. In social networks, people are influenced by other users, and this has led the researcher to identify influential users in Twitter, to extract the model for user behavior. Influential users in certain topics spread the behavior and influence the thoughts and ideas of other users. In this study, to find effective users, various types of Twitter network relationships have been used to analyze the network. Based on the indicators of social network analysis, user interactions have been studied and the coefficient of each relationship model has been obtained by performing various experiments. In the next step, the order of each relationship model in determining the effective user in Twitter is specified. The results showed that among the four types of interaction, including retweet, pointing, responding and following to form a communication graph, according to the conducted studies, the effect of retweeting is more than pointing and responding and the effect of following relationship was less than other relationships. https://www.sqts.ir/article_151520.html Climate change is one of the major environmental problems that has attracted the attention of many scientific and political circles in the world over the past two decades. According to the latest report of the World Economic Forum (2016), not dealing with climate change will affect all aspects of human life, and the dimensions of this phenomenon in the future will be wider and its consequences will be more terrible. Human health, food security, natural resources, especially water resources and the economy will all be affected by climate change. In Iran, climate change will be the source of many changes, so that according to available data by 2040, a decrease in average rainfall, an increase in temperature of the country, an increase in heavy rainfall, a decrease in the number of frosty days and an increase in hot and dry days and occurrence Drought will be one of the most important features of Iran's climatic landscape. The consequences of such events in the form of climate change will put Iran in the not-too-distant future facing challenges and risks such as water shortages, drought, threats to food and political security, agriculture, the environment, health, and potential tensions with its neighbors. https://www.sqts.ir/article_149809.html The Islamic Republic of Iran and Saudi Arabia are two main actors, rivals and activists in the Middle East and the Persian Gulf. Due to the constant and changing factors affecting the relations between the two countries in different periods, they have adopted various policies from relative cooperation to competition and confrontation. In this regard, in some periods, both before and after the victory of the Islamic Revolution, we have witnessed the expansion of relations and de-escalation between the two countries; but there has always been a degree of rivalry and animosity between the two countries. In this regard, the tension and incompatibility between the two countries, with the beginning of new developments in the region, has covered a wider level of differences, which has paved the way for more competition and influence in strategic areas in the region. This has led to tactical and operational changes in the geopolitical domains of the disputed areas, including Syria, Lebanon, Yemen, Bahrain and Iraq, which has been able to create regional and internal rivalries in Iran and Saudi Arabia. Therefore, the main purpose of this study is to explain the factors affecting the tension between the Islamic Republic of Iran and Saudi Arabia. In this study, using a descriptive-analytical method, we seek to answer the main research question that; what are the factors influencing the tension between the Islamic Republic of Iran and Saudi Arabia before and after the revolution? To answer this question, the most important factors of tension between Iran and Saudi Arabia in dimensions such as domestic level, regional level, world level, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia's view toward Iran as the core of nation of the Islamic world, highlighting the ethnic differences between Iran and Arabs and emphasizing the political differences between the two countries by the Saudi regime, taking a confrontational approach by highlighting the military threats of Iran and overthrowing the dependent regimes and allies of Saudi Arabia can be investigated. https://www.sqts.ir/article_154815.html In today's world, all organizations and their environments are experiencing ever-increasing instability, turmoil, and constant change. To mitigate the effects of these growing changes and take advantage of the opportunities that have arisen, and to reduce response time and improve flexibility, a completely new form of organization must emerge. In all these organizations, today there is competition in various dimensions, such as speed of customer service, increasing the quality of service, providing services or products in the best possible time, etc. Therefore, organizations and their employees in order to achieve this Goals should move towards increasing flexibility, readiness for change and welcoming it, gaining more competence, increasing production and exchange of information, readiness to face unforeseen events, etc., and in a word, they should become more agile. The concept of agility in intelligence organizations is doubly important given the mission sensitivities and their role in the policy-making process. Using a descriptive and analytical approach, while explaining the necessities and dimensions of agility in intelligence organizations, this study was an attempt to investigate the contexts of agility in intelligence organizations and the effective factors of agility on such an organization. The results show that the intelligence organization can take an effective step towards agility in order to succeed in their missions and goals through changes in organizational structure, staff, technological infrastructure, creativity and innovation. https://www.sqts.ir/article_154816.html Following the annexation of Crimea to Russia, the crisis between Kiev and Moscow reached its peak. Ukraine is of great importance due to its geopolitical position as a crossroads of East and West, industrial potential and historical background in the Eurasian region. Ukraine's willingness to join NATO is a turning point in its foreign relations with Kremlin politicians. Perhaps the root of the current crisis and the ensuing war is the most obvious consequence of Ukraine's integration into the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. The main objective of this study, which is conducted in a descriptive-analytical manner and uses documents, articles , quarterly security and also security and political books to collect information, is to examine various aspects of this crisis and it intends to test this hypothesize that the West's attempt to infiltrate Ukraine in political, military, economic, and security forms, and their confrontation with full support for the country against Russia, will bring what kinds of  gains or consequences in the regional equations and the balance of power. https://www.sqts.ir/article_149813.html The main argument of this article is that the officials of the Republic of Azerbaijan, in the context of their disputes with Armenia on the Nagorno-Karabakh issue especially after the recent conflict and Yerevan's revenge strategy, are considering relations with the Zionist regime. And they are seeking for the regime's advanced military technologies, as well as the support of the Zionist lobby in the United States to counter the Armenian lobby. On the other hand, the Zionist regime looks at its relations with the Republic of Azerbaijan in a way that its main goal seems to be to confront the Islamic Republic of Iran in political, military, intelligence and even economic domains. https://www.sqts.ir/article_151536.html Security and liberation from threats throughout history has always been one of the most important concerns of humanity. In international relations, countless works have been written on the theories of various thinkers, but few can be found whose central concern is to answer the question of what exactly security studies seek to address, and theories of international relations specifically in What is their view on the issue of security? In this article, after examining the central issue of security studies and analyzing the importance of the issue of security, we intend to examine the views of international relations theories in both rationalist and reflective groups on the issue of security and how to explain this issue. . The method used in this research is analytical and in order to collect data from the main sources of the authors of each of the theories of international relations has been used. https://www.sqts.ir/article_151537.html Identifying the dimensions and elements of the threat that cause instability and fragility in the survival of countries is one of the important and strategic areas of study and operation. The Islamic Republic of Iran, as a geopolitical entity in Southwest Asia with Islamic and revolutionary ideology, is one of the influential poles in its environment on a regional and supra-regional scale. Continuation of Iran's geopolitical depth and influence in the region requires the identification, review and scientific and practical deepening of factors and structures that can challenge the country's geopolitical depths in local, national and regional scales in various ways. Due to such importance, the identification of defense-security threats of neighboring countries of the Islamic Republic of Iran and Iraq as an example has been considered as the aim of the present study. The present study has identified the defense-security threats of Iraq through a mixed method. In this regard, the identification and classification of threat types in the framework of seven dimensions of military, economic, political, social, cyber, technological and environmental and then using the method of trend analysis and scenario writing in 2025 horizon and using SPSS software to estimate The total of the above seven threats has been addressed by Iraq. The findings showed that the surrounding area of ​​western Iran is a relatively safe strategic environment. From a political and economic point of view, Iraq is considered a source of relative threat against the country. Therefore, the environment around western Iran seems to be relatively insecure in terms of strategic threats. https://www.sqts.ir/article_151523.html Due to the increasing developments of today's environmental phenomena, it has become equally complex and multifaceted. Enemies today and in the future will use a variety of different methods of warfare; Future enemies will avoid tough military power and look for alternatives. Intergovernmental wars are shifting to hybrid wars and asymmetric rivalries, in which there are no definite boundaries and a wide range of complexities that we call warfare. (Hybrid) is called a hybrid. In hybrid warfare, control and command systems [1] play a key role in controlling and directing the war, and always preventive and destructive attacks are carried out against command centers, air defense radar sites and systems, command and control centers. The atmosphere of war in the future will be more virtual, fluid, software and out of the human senses, which can be metaphorically called the mind. Fast, power synchronization, nonlinear operations, simultaneous engagement at three levels, preemptive operations, continuous operations under any circumstances, battlefield development, reliance on psychological operations, attack on centers of gravity, flat attack, precision air and missile attack, time management, Paying attention to the economics of war is managing the tolerance threshold of nations and changing the type of maneuver. This study tries to investigate the appropriate country with a descriptive-analytical approach on how to command and control the scene of future wars by emphasizing the military doctrine and determining the appropriate defense strategies of the Islamic Republic of Iran. https://www.sqts.ir/article_155042.html aaaaaaaaaa
