description | Persian Constitutional Revolution, in addition to changing the political and social structures of Iran, challenged the dominant discourse of traditional medicine. In the new approach to medical life, the government, physicians, and the educated class paid special attention to the issue of personal health and the need to diagnose diseases and their complications. Furthermore, they place special emphasis on disease prevention rather than treatment. To accomplish this, each took a particular mission. With the rise of journalism in post-constitutional Iran, they played a crucial role in advancing modern medical goals and educating people. In the present study, through the lens of a modern approach to journalism in medicine, taking an analytical approach, an attempt has been made to examine the mission of the Bidari newspaper to the issue of modern health and medicine in Kerman during the first Pahlavi period (1304-1320 SH/ 1925-1941 AD). Findings show that, to inform the public, the most important missions of the newspaper comprise putting emphasis on healthy living by identifying the types of common diseases in Kerman and the way to deal with them through paying attention to the principles of prevention and introducing governmental regulations in the field of medicine. |
