Abstract:
What are the security consequences of population movements? This article seeks to provide a better understanding of when, how, and under what conditions terrorism diffuses across countries via migration flows as a vehicle. We contribute to this debate by studying the influence of migrants’ cultural proximity to the native population of their host country. It is argued that cultural closeness can contain such terrorism diffusion. Similarities in societal norms, customs, or beliefs seem likely to induce trust in the social interactions between migrants and locals. This, in turn, makes it more difficult for terrorist organizations to exploit transnational population movements for radicalization and as a recruitment pool – one of the core mechanisms linking population flows with terrorism. Conversely, migrants from culturally distant societies may find it more challenging to integrate into their new homes. A fertile ground for terrorist organizations for the recruitment of new followers is thereby more likely. Our analyses present consistent evidence that the effect of terrorism diffusing across countries weakens when accounting for cultural closeness between migrants and host societies. This key finding of our research has crucial implications for policy’s and scholars’ understanding of terrorism, the diffusion of terrorism across countries, and the security consequences of population movements.

Abstract:
This article examines cross-national variation in the diffusion and adoption of military technologies and ideas. The history of warfare has been marked by periods of innovation in which the institutions and practices of war-making adapted in response to technological opportunities, and social and political developments. As information about new practices spreads, through the demonstration effects of innovating states or transnational social networks, military innovations have diffused throughout the international system. Diffusion can restructure power relations as states leverage new capabilities to increase their military power and enhance their international influence.

Abstract:
The article analyzes the problem of the ratio of everyday and specialized culture. We consider the division of culture into two levels: specialized and ordinary, the variants of cultural diffusion, and indicate the directions of distribution of cultural flows, while noting the beginning of the counter process of penetration of ordinary ideas into specialized ones. It is assumed that specialized knowledge, in constant contact with the knowledge of representatives of ordinary culture, loses its integrity and begins to include elements of its representations, which stands out as a new aspect. The term "cultural paradox" is proposed to be used for naming the specific socio-cultural situation. Conclusions are drawn about the need to pay attention to the subject in question in order to influence the current socio-cultural situation in society.

Abstract:
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to examine the diffusion of a popular Korean music video on the video-sharing web site YouTube. It applies a webometric approach in the diffusion of innovations framework to study three elements of diffusion in a Web 2.0 environment: users, user-to-user relationship and user-generated comment. Design/methodology/approach – The webometric approach combines profile analyses, social network analyses, semantic and sentiment analyses. Findings – The results show that male users in the US played a dominant role in the early-stage diffusion. The dominant users represented the innovators and early adopters in the evaluation stage of the diffusion, and they engaged in continuous discussions about the cultural origin of the video and expressed criticisms. Overall, the discussion between users varied according to their gender, age, and cultural background. Specifically, male users were more interactive than female users, and users in countries culturally similar to Korea were more likely to express favourable attitudes toward the video. Originality/value – The study provides a webometric approach to examine the Web 2.0-based social system in the early-stage global diffusion of cultural offerings. This approach connects the diffusion of innovations framework to the new context of Web 2.0-based diffusion.

Abstract:
PurposeThe objective of this study is to advance the understanding of the connection between cultural distance and the cross-border diffusion of innovations by conducting a systematic review and analysis of previous literature.Design/methodology/approachThis study involved a literature review. A total of 35 articles published in ABS journals were identified from key management, international business and marketing journals. The articles were analyzed by the methodologies and findings presented.FindingsThe literature review shows that the adoption and diffusion of innovation and new products are bound to be deeply influenced by cultural distance. Specifically, national cultures influence the willingness of consumers to buy new products at both the individual and organizational levels; organizational culture plays a key role in the process of launching new products and diffusing innovations to the market. However, existing studies and their findings are fragmented and inconsistent. Controversial views remain regarding the impact of national cultural dimensions on the diffusion of innovation at the individual and organizational levels.Originality/valueThis is the first systematic review of the literature specifically focusing on the impact of cultural distance on the cross-border diffusion of innovation. In identifying the research gaps and limitations of extant studies, the authors point to avenues for future research to develop a more integrated research agenda for marketing, management and international business research.

Abstract:
Der vorliegende Beitrag setzt die Überlegungen eines Forschungsentwurfs fort, dessen erster Teil im Band 63/2 dieser Zeitschrift erschien. Die historische Formel des sog. ›Disjunktionsprinzps‹ entwickelt Panofsky u.a. in dem 1944 im Kenyon Review erschienenen Artikel Renaissance and Renascences. Die grundsätzliche Mobilität antiker Kulturelemente, die er seiner Formel zuschreibt, impliziert einen bei ihm bisher unbenannten kulturtheoretischen Zugang mit deutlicher Nähe zum ethnologischen Modell der Diffusion. Ausgehend davon entwirft Panofsky mittels einer kulturmorphologischen Vorgehensweise ein transepochales Modell kultureller Tradierung. Dies ermöglicht es ihm, seine Vorstellung einer hierarchischen Gliederung menschlicher (Kultur‑)Epochen am Beispiel der Antikenrezeption zu festigen. Um sich den kulturtheoretischen Implikationen in Panofskys Ausführungen zu nähern, sollen hier jene Stationen beleuchtet werden, die Panofskys intellektuellen Horizont möglicherweise mitgeformt haben – so z.B. die Prägung durch Aby Warburg, der seine Ausbildung in Bonn u.a. unter der Lehre Karl Lamprechts absolvierte. Zum anderen wird Panofskys Argumentation mit den Ideen deutscher Diffusionisten verglichen. Die vergleichende Methode offenbart nicht nur erstmalig deutliche Analogien, sondern zeigt, wie Panofsky mittels Antikenrezeption eine spezifische Vorstellung von der menschlichen Kulturgeschichte vorgibt. The article continues the considerations of a research draft, the first part of which was published in volume 63/2 of this journal. Panofsky develops the historical formula of the socalled ›principle of disjunction‹ in the article ›Renaissance and Renascences‹ published in the Kenyon Review in 1944. The fundamental mobility of ancient cultural elements, which he ascribes to his formula, implies a previously unnamed cultural-theoretical approach with a clear proximity to the ethnological model of diffusion. On this basis, Panofsky uses a cultural morphological approach to design a transepochal model of cultural transmission. This enables him to consolidate the idea of a hierarchical structure of human (cultural) epochs using the example of the reception of antiquity. In order to approach the cultural-theoretical implications in Panofsky’s remarks, those stations that may have shaped Panofsky’s intellectual horizon will be examined – e.g. the influence of Aby Warburg, who completed his education in Bonn under the teachings of Karl Lamprecht, among others. On the other hand, Panofsky’s argumentation is compared with the ideas of German diffusionists. The comparative method not only reveals clear analogies for the first time, but also shows how Panofsky uses the reception of antiquity to provide a specific idea of human cultural history

Abstract:
Chinese North-western Zone designates the border areas of Northern China, including Xinjiang, Gansu, Qinghai, Ningxia, Inner Mongolia, Shaanxi and Shanxi, inhabited by semi-nomadic and nomadic groups in prehistoric times. The term denotes a broad geographic horizon conceivable as a multitude of cultural phenomena sharing a common material 'language', yet inferences on ethnic affiliation have been hitherto poorly grounded and difficult to ascertain. This work attempts to clarify some of the cultural phenomena occurred in the area, through a contextualised analysis of the available archaeological material. A methodological framework placing proto-historical material culture into 'context' is first enunciated and then employed in the investigation of various aspects of material expression belonging to different 'cultural horizons', from Siba-Huoshaogou, Yanbulake, Zhukaigou, Shajing and Chawuhu, to Alagou, Yanglang and Ordos. The data thus exposed provide clues on funerary behaviour, on patterns of consumption and social constructs, on stylistic and typological variation in ceramic productions, on metals and their social role, on craft specialisations and artistic expressions. Not only bronze and pottery objects are analysed from the stylistic and - when possible - the technological point of view, but also their relationship with 'alternative' types of material evidence (such as various perishable media) and with the contingent space are considered. Attention is further devoted to artefactual productions, ranging from bronze and iron casting to gold and silver metal-smithing. In the absence of contemporary written sources, the bulk of information comes primarily from archaeological reports. Yet manifold are the lines of evidence gathered. All these elements eventually contribute not only to discriminate similar modes of social negotiation such as gender and authority, indirectly reflecting expressions of ethnical affiliation, but also to assess both the degree of conscious cultural interaction and the extent of demic diffusion between Central Asia, Southern Siberia and China during the 2nd and 1st millennia BCE.

Abstract:
Culture is a hugely important process in the evolution of humans and many non-human animals. Through the formation of long lasting traditions, culture provides an extragenetic inheritance mechanism that can facilitate rapid behavioural adaptation to novel environments. This can ultimately alter the selection pressures acting on different phenotypes including those that underlie cultural transmission itself, i.e. the mechanisms of social learning. Understanding culture poses many challenges for researchers due to the complex nature of interacting biological processes at multiple organisational and temporal scales. In this thesis I investigate some of these complexities through the integration of different theoretical and statistical modelling approaches, and argue that rich models are particularly important for the study of culture. In chapters 3 & 4 I use an evolutionary agent-based model to study the functional value and cultural significance of strategically copying from other individuals based on particular cues, such as age or payoff. I find that a bias to copy the successful can provide substantial adaptive advantages, potentially outweighing other strategic considerations such as when to engage in social learning. I also demonstrate that the strength of selection on social learning strategies is closely linked to the cultural diversity within a population. In chapters 5 & 6 I study the mechanisms of learning and how social influences can impact decision making. In chapter 5 I model the behaviour of nursery children and chimpanzee groups when solving a complex task and identify clear species differences in the importance of different forms of learning on decision making. Finally, in chapter 6 I use an agent-based model to examine the influence of population structure on the spread of novel behaviour. I demonstrate that, contrary to infectious disease type models, when learning occurs through operant conditioning, highly clustered network structures promote cultural transmission rather than hinder it.

El objetivo de la presente investigación, consiste en evaluar el impacto del diseño de información, como medio de difusión, en las agendas culturales limeñas. Por lo cual, se debe de examinar el nivel de eficiencia comunicativa de la información y analizar la estrategia de difusión que tiene. Lo que conlleva a que la implementación de los principios del diseño de información en donde prima la eficiencia comunicativa y su utilidad, contribuya a la mejora en el acceso de contenido y comprensión del teatro como actividad cultural de Lima. Este trabajo tiene como finalidad examinar si las agendas culturales limeñas presentan información eficiente sobre el teatro y cuentan con un diseño de información que facilite al lector la obtención y comprensión de la información presentada. Por ello, se llevará a cabo una investigación mixta, en donde se analizarán las agendas culturales limeñas, entrevistar a expertos y desarrollar encuestas. Los resultados de la investigación establecen que siete de los nueve medios de difusión analizados no implementan correctamente los principios del diseño de información. Ello provoca que el acceso y comprensión del contenido no sea efectivo en el lector meta. Gracias a ello se puede concluir que al no aplicar el diseño de información, el nivel de eficiencia comunicativa de las agendas culturales como estrategias de difusión del teatro limeño no brinda el contenido necesario para asistir a una actividad cultural.
The objective of this research is to evaluate the impact of information design, as a means of dissemination, in Lima's cultural agendas. Therefore, it is necessary to examine the level of communicative efficiency of the information and analyze the dissemination strategy it has. This means that the implementation of the principles of information design contributes to improve the access to the content and understanding of theatre as a cultural activity in Lima. The purpose of this work is to examine, if Lima's cultural agendas, present efficient information about the theatre and have an information design that facilitates the reader's understanding. For this reason, a mixed research will be carried out, in which the Lima cultural agendas will be analyzed, experts will be interviewed and field research will be developed. The results of the research establish that seven of the nine media analyzed do not correctly implement the principles of information design. This means that access to and understanding of the content isn't effective for the target reader. Therefore, it can be concluded that by not applying the information design, the level of communicative efficiency of the cultural agendas as strategies of diffusion of the Lima theater, don´t provide necessary content to attend a theatrical presentation. Consequently, there is a low influx in the performing of cultural activities.

Abstract:
This thesis considers cultural diffusion in the context of oriental carpets. Geometrical symmetry and its classification are an important feature. Literature review covers a wide range of relevant concepts from the disciplines of anthropology, sociology and psychology and includes consideration of aspects from the work of Boas [1938, 1940, 1948], Burton [1992], Levi-Strauss [1963], Jung [1959] and Koffka [1935]. The published work of Woods [1935, 1936], Washburn and Crowe [1988], and Hann [1991, 1992], from the area of geometrical symmetry and its classification, is also considered in some detail and further conceptual development proposed, including a range of concepts relating to the classification of two-colour counterchange patterns. The principle emphasis in the research is on the analysis of patterns and motifs with respect to their symmetry characteristics. Data were collected from 1,000 Persian and Anatolian carpets, and similarities and differences are highlighted. Case studies are presented of the Pazyryk carpet (the oldest known complete pile-woven carpet, held in the Hermitage Museum, St.Petersburg) and the Ardabil carpets (the only dated pair of Safavid carpets, one held in the Victoria and Albert Museum, London, and the other in the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, Los Angeles). The geometrical characteristics of each carpet are examined, compared to the results of the larger survey of Persian and Anatolian carpets, and a discussion is developed relating to cultural diffusion.

Abstract:
Cultural evolutionary models that relate spatial and temporal patterning in artifact sequences to human social learning processes and history have made many recent advances. Specifically, these models connect evolutionary forces and social leaning mechanisms along cultural pathways with expectations that can be assessed using material culture. In this dissertation, I use an historical archaeology case study of carved New England gravestones to evaluate three different aspects of cultural transmission and artifact patterns. First, I study the role of social network structure in the transmission of cultural information among carvers organized in workshops that were principally comprised of a carver and his apprentices. The results of this study suggest that the motifs reflect widespread similarity that transcends workshop organization. However, the finer grained decorative elements that make up these motifs correspond with cultural lineages of gravestone carvers. Second, I examine the relationship between the diffusion of innovations and cultural transmission mechanisms that result in spatiotemporal patterning. The spatial patterning suggests that social contagion among consumers created brief instances of wave-like diffusion from a distinct workshop, highlighting the role of consumer choice. A review of probate payments shows that gravestones were rarely purchased from distance sources, as transport costs could be prohibitive. The spatial patterning and historic record suggest that carvers also learned from other carvers creating a hierarchical diffusion process. These two populations created a feedback mechanism that leads to complex emergent phenomena, as illustrated by the rapid and widespread adoption of the cherub motif. Third, the neutral model of stylistic variation is applied to gravestone data to examine the ways that increased consumption and an expanding carving industry led to dominant decorative motifs. This study shows that neutrality can be a fleeting and transitional state between the dominance of single decorative styles. These three studies use New England gravestones to illustrate the evolutionary forces and cultural transmission mechanisms among artifact producers and consumers, which generated the stylistic patterning we observe in the archaeological record.

Resumo: Esta pesquisa levantou a produção cultural argentina durante o governo de Juan Domingo Perón (1946-1955). O estudo indicou a existência de uma expressiva produção cultural alinhada com o peronismo, resultado de uma política cultural do governo. Entretanto, essa política cultural não prevaleceu na produção cultural do período. ascensão de Perón não impediu o reconhecimento de escritores antiperonistas como Borges, Bioy Casares, Victoria Ocampo e Julio Cortázar, dentre outros, ligados à tradição liberal argentina. Além disso, entre os próprios peronistas, as propostas culturais do governo provocaram divergências quanto à centralidade do nacionalismo, à formação que deveria ser dada aos setores populares e ao legado da tradição liberal.
Abstract: This research investigated Argentina's cultural output during the government of Juan Domingo Perón (1946-1955). The study identified the existence of substantial cultural output aligned with Peronism as a result of the government's cultural policies. However, these policies did not completely direct the country's cultural production during this period. For instance, Perón's rise to power did not prevent recognition of antiperonist writers such as Borges, Bioy Casares, Victoria Ocampo, and Julio Cortázar, among others, who represented Argentina's liberal tradition. In addition, the government's cultural proposals led to meaningful disagreements among the Peronists themselves over the centrality of nationalism, the training proffered to the population at large, and the legacy of the liberal tradition.

Abstract:
AbstractCompulsory education is closely related to the reproduction and change of a country’s culture. As we know from international comparative cultural research, however, there are different pathways into modernity, and so the particular role of education for a nation-state’s cultural basis might differ as well. At the same time, different relations between countries, such as cultural similarity or trade, can function as channels of diffusion of welfare policies. Our empirical analysis tests which dimensions of global networks structure the diffusion of introduction of compulsory education. We find a positive effect of exposure to other countries in a network of cultural similarity. Policy diffusion does not proceed via economic ties and colonial histories, but does through spatial proximity.

AbstractThis study investigates the diffusion of compulsory education in a global perspective. Compulsory education closely relates to the reproduction and change of culture and moderates the process of modernisation. We analyse the diffusion of compulsory education by focusing on the effect of a country’s membership in different "cultural spheres". Global cultural clusters of countries do not have rigid, clear-cut "fault lines". We capture the fuzzy-set nature of "cultural spheres" by using a relational approach. In the resulting network countries increasingly connect with a higher amount of cultural characteristics they share. We test the impact of cultural spheres on diffusion controlling for indicators of economic development. Exposure in terms of close cultural ties to other countries with compulsory education, significantly and substantially increases the rate of adoption.

AbstractIn Chap. 10.1007/978-3-030-78885-8_2, Helen Seitzer, Fabian Besche-Truthe, and Michael Windzio investigate the diffusion of compulsory education from a global perspective. Compulsory education closely relates to the reproduction and change of a country’s culture. In this chapter, the authors focus on the effect of a country’s membership in different clusters defined by cultural characteristics, on the diffusion of compulsory education. They apply social network analysis to define global ‘cultural spheres’, which have fuzzy boundaries. This network is the structural framework behind the diffusion process of compulsory education. The impact of cultural spheres on diffusion is tested by exposure in terms of close ties to other countries with compulsory education, and they are found to significantly increase the rate of adoption.

Abstract:
In recent years, the campus cultural and creative industry has attracted significant attention, yet its innovation and development still face multifaceted challenges. One of the most prominent challenges is the difficulty of fully incorporating consumers' deep-seated thoughts into the design elements of cultural and creative products. To gain a deeper understanding of consumers' sentiments towards the campus and to precisely meet their needs, this study aims to drive the innovative development of campus cultural and creative products.Through an analysis of the innovative diffusion process of cultural and creative products at the City University of Macau, the study reveals the challenges encountered by the campus cultural and creative industry in its innovation and development. The study utilizes the Zaltman Metaphor Elicitation Technique (ZMET), combining on-site investigations, questionnaire surveys, and semi-structured interviews to explore the metaphorical elements of campus culture and transform them into specific design elements for cultural and creative products.Additionally, the study applies models from innovation diffusion theory to explain and predict the market penetration process of campus cultural and creative products. The in-depth analysis of metaphorical elements in campus culture successfully disrupts traditional design patterns, injecting new vitality into campus cultural innovation.The application of the innovation diffusion theory model indicates that the innovative development of campus cultural and creative products is influenced by various factors, including product characteristics, market environment, and consumer behavior. The findings of this study provide new theoretical and practical guidance for the development of the campus cultural and creative industry. The application of the innovation diffusion theory model improves understanding of the market penetration process of campus cultural and creative products, offering fresh insights and directions for product innovation design. By gaining a deeper understanding of consumers' inner needs, we can more accurately anticipate the development trends of campus cultural and creative products, thereby enhancing the market adaptability of the products and user satisfaction.

Schwartz, Shalom. "Causes of Culture: National Differences in Cultural Embeddedness." In International Association of Cross Cultural Psychology Congress. International Association for Cross-Cultural Psychology, 2009. http://dx.doi.org/10.4087/wxsh9817.

Full text
Abstract:
What causes national differences in culture? Past attempts to answer this question take insufficient account of how slowly culture changes or of the fact that culture itself influences the social structural, political, and demographic variables identified as causes. Convincing causes of cultural differences must meet three criteria: They should reflect the formative historical experiences of societies, they should not be influenced reciprocally by culture, and theoretically plausible process should explain their impact on culture. I propose and explain causes of national differences in cultural embeddedness, a value orientation that calls upon people to find meaning in life through identifying with their in-group, participating in its shared way of life, and striving toward its shared goals. Analyses of data from 77 cultural groups (74 countries) demonstrate that cultural embeddedness is greater in ethnically heterogeneous societies, with a relatively short history of viable state institutions, whose historically dominant religion was Islam rather than Protestantism or Roman Catholicism. These causal findings are not due to diffusion of culture to nearby countries or colonies. They hold up even when predicting differences in cultural embeddedness among eight world regions or within Eastern and within Western Europe. This research can be a model for investigating causes of various cultural differences among nations and other groups.

Full text
Abstract:
Diffusion of information and communication technologies is a global phenomenon. In spite of rapid globalization there are considerable differences between nations in terms of the adoption and usage of new technologies. Several studies exploring causal factors including national cultures of information and communication technology adoption have been carried out. The focus of this paper is slightly different from other studies in this area. Rather than concentrating on the individual information technology an overall eGovernment readiness is the focus. This research conducted an analysis of the impact national culture has on eGovernment readiness and its components for 95 countries. eGovernment readiness assessment used in this study is based on the UN Global eGovernment Survey 2003, while the national cultural dimensions were identified using Hofstede’s model of cultural differences. The research model and hypotheses were formed and tested using correlation and regression analysis. The findings indicate that worldwide eGov-ernment readiness and its components are related to culture. The result has theoretical and practical implications.

Full text
Abstract:
The main question of this analysis is a character of mechanism of increasingly netted culture as an intercultural communication context. The shift of culture is related with tendencies of post-modernity and globalization. In fact the contemporary culture is lying on another paradigm, which has a different structure and consecution from traditional culture.” Double virtuality” and infotainment are the hegemonic characteristics of current cross-cultural communicating. The netted culture implies new forms of information representations and dynamic orientations of intercultural actions. There are the consequences of trans-informationality and cultural diffusion, which are internal processes of postmodern culture. We assume the radical transformation of idiosyncrasy of intercultural communication.

Abstract:
While there has been a great deal of research on the application and implementation of Information Technology (IT), there is less research on the variables which can contribute to the successful diffusion and implementation of IT within an organization. This paper looks at the relationship between the cultural/work values of the people involved and IT adoption. Three cultures and the correlation of their cultural/work orientations and the adoption of IT via the Technology Adoption Model (TAM). Findings suggest a correlation between some of the variables in the two models used.

Abstract:
Once considered a partial exception to the recent diffusion of populism worldwide, Romania saw Radical Right populism return to Parliament in 2020. The Alliance for the Union of Romanians (AUR) successfully campaigned on a platform of defending the Christian faith, freedom, the traditional family, and the nation. Although the party was initially considered the result of individual entrepreneurship linked to its founding leaders, it has successfully built on diffused networks of societal activism whose origins could be traced back to the early 2000s. However, the AUR’s track record of discourse aligned with Kremlin rhetoric calling for Western economic, political and cultural hegemony to be resisted and rolled back saw a temporary decline in voters’ support for the party. However, the party managed to rebuild consensus strategically by drawing on voters’ increased anxiety regarding the economic effects of the war. This report offers a cogent analysis of the political performance of the AUR, examining the party’s formative phase as well as its evolution since 2020, alongside a discussion of the impact of the war in Ukraine on Romanian party politics.

Abstract:
The release into the public domain and massive growth in the user base of artificial intelligence (AI) foundation models for text, images, and audio is fuelling debate about the risks they pose to work, education, scientific research, and democracy, as well as their potential negative impacts on cultural diversity and cross-cultural interactions, among other areas. Foundation models are AI systems that are characterized by the use of very large machine learning models trained on massive unlabelled data sets using considerable compute resources. Examples include large language models (LLMs) such as the GPT series and Bard, and image generator tools such as DALL·E 2 and Stable Diffusion. This discussion paper focuses on a widely used foundation model, ChatGPT, as a case study, but many of the points below are applicable to other LLMs and foundation models more broadly.
