Abstract:
This article examines the way family and kinship patterns change in the process of immigration — and why. Offering an interpretative synthesis, it emphasizes the way first generation immigrants to the United States fuse together the old and new to create a new kind of family life. The family is seen as a place where there is a dynamic interplay between structure, culture, and agency. New immigrant family patterns are shaped by cultural meanings and social practices immigrants bring with them from their home countries as well as social, economic and cultural forces in the United States.

Abstract:
<p>This paper explores the relationship between work-related values and food production modes. Following cultural materialism theory in anthropology, we hypothesize that the collective programming of mind began when humans adopted different methods to produce food. Using food production data in the 1970s and in the 1990s, we found that per capita production of milk was positively related to Hofstede’s individualism and negatively related to power distance. Meanwhile, the production of fruits and vegetables in the 1970s was directly related to uncertainty avoidance. Similar results were found when applying the GLOBE cultural dimensions in the 1990s although technology development and globalization have weakened the relationship between food production and culture. The policy implications of the findings are discussed within the context of globalization of food industry.</p>

Abstract:
Tamils divide life into two parts, internal and external. They divided the life of the thalaivan and thalaivi’s love affairs that happen together as internal and political life and Socio-economic conditions as external. That's why Valluvar has divided it threefold: virtue, pleasure, and charity. If there is to be happiness and peace in life, everyone should impose certain duties and morals on themselves. Such duties and restrictions are called morals. Sanga literary bioethics serve as universal cultural guides that can be used to make life high and pleasant. These morals are eternal and are common to the entire world. The purpose of this study is to study the changes in the lifestyle and culture of the Tamilians who are living in this era, forgetting such high cultural norms.

Abstract:
With significant political and economic changes over the decades, the limitations of Hofstede's cultural difference dimension model have been heated debated. The purpose of this research is to explore the levels of context culture among people in China of different ages and genders and whether context culture should be considered as part of the cultural dimension. The respondents were 385 people aged 20 to 40 in China, and the study was quantitative, using independent sample tests to answer research questions. This research shows that China is a high context culture country, and the women have higher context culture than men. In addition, context culture differs significantly in age groups, and the level of context culture increases with age. Therefore, context culture can be considered as a new cultural dimension, and it is also suggested to add this new dimension to Hofstede's cultural dimensions model to examine culture more comprehensively.

Abstract:
Cultural changes run through the historical development of human society. Only by having an insight into the cultural changes in the global information age can we grasp the development and future of contemporary culture. Contemporary culture has two major trends of globalization and informatization. This paper focuses on the background of informatization of contemporary culture. Currently, informatization associated with globalization has strengthened the interdependence of national economies, changed the international environment for their development, and enriched their ways of interaction. Under the unprecedented open international environment, the development of any country can no longer be carried out in a closed state. The influence of international public opinion on national development is becoming increasingly important. As a big developing country, China has to communicate with other countries in an all-round and multi-channel way so that the world can better understand China and China can create a good international public opinion environment for its own development. This paper will spread out expositions for three aspects: the informatization tide promoted the rise of the information culture industry; the informatization tide intensifies the cultural interaction and competition among countries; the informatization tide enriches cultural communication among countries.

Abstract:
In terms of its form, the law can be in the form of written law and can also be unwritten law. The purpose of this study is to analyze the influence of socio-cultural aspects on legal changes in Indonesia. The research method used is normative legal research. The results of the study show that talking about legal culture is the same as talking about public legal awareness. These two things are an inseparable unit, because they are closely related to the implementation of law in society. Thus, legal culture and legal awareness are two things that can be developed properly in an integrated manner so that the legal reforms implemented can be accepted by the community as behavioral guidelines that must be followed.

Abstract:
China's national cultural characteristics are diverse, and each national culture has its own characteristics and its own development history, which is a highlight of our country. However, in the wave of development of the times, the cultures of many ethnic minorities have gradually merged and degraded. The interaction among heterogeneous cultures is a common phenomenon in human society, and the exchange and collision of different regional cultures is an important factor for culture to thrive. This article is based on a cross-cultural perspective, combined with the special geographical location and diverse geographical environment of Panxi, China, and in-depth discussion, which is the process of cultural change of ethnic minorities in Panxi region of China. The ethnic culture of the Panxi region and the fascinating natural ecology complement each other, creating a unique place where the Tibetan, Qiang, Yi, Naxi, Lisu, and other diverse cultures converge in the ethnic minority areas of China. After the foundation of New China, the social system in Panxi region has undergone earth-shaking changes, and its national culture has undergone drastic changes. With the development of modernization, industrialization, and urbanization, the national culture of Panxi region of China has been constantly changing in the process of cross-cultural interaction, and new characteristics have continuously formed.

Full text
Abstract:
Every now and then the cultural paradigm of a society changes. While current models of cultural shifts usually require a major exogenous or endogenous change, we propose that the mechanism underlying many paradigm shifts may just be an emergent feature of the inherent congruence among different cultural traits. We implement this idea through a population dynamics model in which individuals are defined by a vector of cultural traits that changes mainly through cultural contagion, biased by a ‘cultural fitness’ landscape, between contemporary individuals. Cultural traits reinforce or hinder each other (through a form of cultural epistasis) to prevent cognitive dissonance. Our main result is that abrupt paradigm shifts occur, in response to weak changes in the landscape, only in the presence of epistasis between cultural traits, and regardless of whether horizontal transmission is biased by homophily. A relevant consequence of this dynamics is the irreversible nature of paradigm shifts: the old paradigm cannot be restored even if the external changes are undone. Our model puts the phenomenon of paradigm shifts in cultural evolution in the same category as catastrophic shifts in ecology or phase transitions in physics, where minute causes lead to major collective changes.

Abstract:
At the moments of bifurcations, random social factors prevail, ensuring the multivariance of social development. The socio-cultural processes taking place in society represent a complex self-organizing system. Socio-cultural changes occur when the previous ordering of social ties does not guarantee the effectiveness of the functioning of the system. The article is devoted to the analysis of various points of view on the socio-cultural process and its determinants. It is shown that society, as a self-rganizing system, constantly changes regimes, implements variability at different social levels. Socio-cultural changes lead to the transformation of society in its morphology, the creation of social forms and structures. Their determinants are mass actions of people. The interpretation of the socio-cultural process reflects the evolution of socio-philosophical thinking. In most approaches, researchers were based on the belief that the laws of the social world are similar to the laws of nature, that society dominates the individual. One of the main features of socio-cultural processes, since they belong to a wide class of self-organization processes, is that they do not have a permanent structure over time and that the changes occurring in them are mostly spontaneous and only partially depend on external influences.

Abstract:
This article explores how the political economy of the cultural industries changes through platformization: the penetration of economic and infrastructural extensions of online platforms into the web, affecting the production, distribution, and circulation of cultural content. It pursues this investigation in critical dialogue with current research in business studies, political economy, and software studies. Focusing on the production of news and games, the analysis shows that in economic terms platformization entails the replacement of two-sided market structures with complex multisided platform configurations, dominated by big platform corporations. Cultural content producers have to continuously grapple with seemingly serendipitous changes in platform governance, ranging from content curation to pricing strategies. Simultaneously, these producers are enticed by new platform services and infrastructural changes. In the process, cultural commodities become fundamentally “contingent,” that is increasingly modular in design and continuously reworked and repackaged, informed by datafied user feedback.

Abstract:
The impact of computer games on human functioning has become the sub­ject of many studies and scientific reports. With the development of technol­ogy, games have transcended boards and become part of the video entertain­ment industry. However, technology did not end traditional games. It was only a matter of time before games were extended to other areas of life. Because games were so popular, educators found that students engage quickly with educational games. The article explains the aspects of serious games (SG), which are defined as digital games used for purposes other than entertain­ment. It describes the areas in which games can be used in the educational process, their effectiveness, and controversies regarding their use.

Abstract:
The paper gives a review and a critical overview of the theoretical approach to the dynamics of cultural and social changes of renowned sociologist Pitirim Sorokin. The first part of the paper is dedicated to the description of the most relevant theoretical contributions contained in Sorokin's most important book Social and Cultural Dynamics. In the second part of the paper, there is a critical overview by the author of this text of Sorokin's sociocultural dynamics theory, as well as of other authors who have studied Sorokin's approach. The conclusion of this paper is that Sorokin's approach is a very significant theoretical contribution to sociology, but also that his theory does not dedicate sufficient attention to external factors as the causes of sociocultural dynamics.

Abstract:
The author reflects on the challenges to theology arising from a sociocultural and religious context. This is the result of varied and complex changes that have taken place in Latin America during the last decades. The analysis pays attention to features of this sociocultural and religious configuration such as the changes occurring in daily life, the intergenerational relationships, new ways of living religious life, and a new understanding of the position of human beings within the ecosystem. This context poses several challenges to the Latin-American theological task at the epistemological and at the methodological levels, and also to value the contributions that these theological approaches have made.

Abstract:
Automobile use is recognized as affecting public health, environmental sustainability, land use, and household expense. Car use is closely tied to car ownership rates. Most car ownership research focuses on urban areas; however, 97% of the United States’ land area and a fifth of its population remains rural. Factors that affect car ownership in these communities may be different than in more urbanized areas. This research focuses on the 2,285 counties in the continental United States that are defined as entirely rural by the guidelines established in the Agricultural Act of 2014. These counties were grouped by five multi-state regions using U.S. Census Bureau definitions. Their percentage changes in car ownership, as well as other demographic variables, over a quarter century were calculated using data from the 1990 Decennial Census and the 2014 5-Year American Community Survey. A multiple regression model was estimated for each grouping to identify counties with lower-than-expected changes in car ownership. For each grouping, one of these outlying counties was selected and matched with another county whose changes in car ownership were within expected ranges given demographic developments. Local professionals were then interviewed to identify policies possibly responsible for the difference in car ownership trends between the matched-pair counties. The interviews suggested that, contrary to expectation, transportation policies had no discernable effect on rural car ownership, but land use polices and, more often, cultural factors linked to changing populations were associated with reduced rural car ownership.

Abstract:
Purpose Various theoretical studies were carried out which attempted to identify impacting factors of cultural changes; however, these studies ignored the correlation among other affecting factors all together. In this paper, the authors aim not only to discuss the hidden layers that trigger the cultural changes but also to answer the questions of how to identify the main factors in each layer based on casual layered analysis (CLA), which could have a strong impact in shaping other layers’ factors? What are the dominant metaphors and worldviews that human beings are telling themselves about our universe that influences the future cultural changes? Design/methodology/approach To answer the questions of “how to identify the main factors in each layer,” the CLA methodology was used to investigate the underlying reasons. CLA takes into account four layers (litany, social systems, dominant discourse and worldviews and metaphors), which could be a tremendous help in identifying the mentioned factors. Findings The analysis shows that there are some contributing factors such as economy, technology, politics, society, environment, mass media, globalization and migration at the second layer – “social systems layer” – which may trigger cultural changes in first layer “litany”; in addition, in the third and deeper layer two dominant worldviews – materialist/secular and religious affecting the contributing factors in the second layer – were identified. Such worldviews are, in turn, supported by metaphors or perfect stories/myths of the deepest layer. Originality/value It can be concluded that because the cultural changes as a reality is composed of different layers, it is important to dig into different layers of reality to comprehend the significant shaping factors of that reality to visualize and make the better future.
