Indeed, nation-states continue to be the best analytical tool concerning migration policies and racial narratives. National behavior responds to the needs of the global economic system, although maintains a certain margin of action regarding the improvisation of racial policies. Commonly, the analysis of racism articulated through the nation-states has presented investigative deficiencies by not addressing the causes that justify their needs. The present research suggests that nation-states' domestic policies regarding racism primarily embody a cultural conflict between social classes. Likewise, it is suggested that the conflict between classes constitutes a need of the entire social system that arises from the commitment to racialize human groups of workers. However, the present study should be expanded, mainly through an analysis of the social situation of native workers assimilated in societies traditionally receiving immigration.","PeriodicalId":196571,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of The 3rd International Conference on Social Sciences in the 21st Century","volume":"73 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123185341","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the study reported here, we ran a series of agent-based simulation experiments to see whether groupwide adherence to certain specific moral rules and practices might provide an evolutionary advantage. In each experiment, two groups of individuals competed with each other to harvest food. The members of one group (“sharers”) then shared food with each other as specified in one of two sharing rules; members of the other group (“hoarders”) never shared food. Individuals who had at least a specified amount of food survived and reproduced, while those who did not died of starvation. Changes in population size were used as a measure of evolutionary fitness. In some experiments, the sharers followed an “unconditional” sharing rule under which they were always obligated to share food. In other experiments, sharers followed a “conditional” sharing rule that made an exception when sharing could put the sharer itself at risk of starving. We found that unconditional sharing had an evolutionary advantage over hoarding when food was plentiful, but a disadvantage when food was scarce. Conditional sharing also offered an advantage over hoarding in a high-resource environment, but unlike unconditional sharing, it did not result in a disadvantage in a low-resource environment. Our observation of these evolutionarily favorable characteristics of conditional sharing provides an interesting example of the potential use of agent-based modeling to inform discussions about the evolution of morality.","PeriodicalId":196571,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of The 3rd International Conference on Social Sciences in the 21st Century","volume":"85 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133787520","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

India is today the second largest and the fastest growing telecom industry in the world in terms of number of wireless connections and is steering towards technological advancements in wireless mobile communications. With the introduction of Digital India Programme, the Wireless Mobile Communications Industry promises to place India on a strong footing with other developed economies of the world in the near future. However, the Industry has been facing several roadblocks on its way to the future growth due to inefficient spectrum management. In this paper, the Researchers have discussed the significance and contribution of the Wireless Mobile Spectrum in the economic growth of India and have critically analyzed the Wireless Spectrum Assignment process. The Researchers have also highlighted the performance indicators of Wireless Cellular Mobile Communications Industry in order to emphasize on the importance of spectrum management in the growth and development of this industry. The researchers have highlighted the various issues and challenges in Spectrum Allocation of India and have given suggestions for efficient spectrum management before the next 5G Auction in the Year 2022 that can further accelerate India towards ‘Digitalization’ and Globalization.","PeriodicalId":196571,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of The 3rd International Conference on Social Sciences in the 21st Century","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116675385","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, it is very important to identify the influence on the political decision-making process made by propaganda directly, or indirectly, through activation of the fear factor. Due to the nature of the fears (they might be rational or irrational) caused by propaganda, they can lead to social turmoil. Thus, we link outside propaganda influence to the security of the state, including small states that do not have the resources to pursue their own interests and therefore become a policy object for large actors. We investigate outside propaganda pressure in small countries and its impact on the policy – internal affairs, or international relations. In this regard, we studied open and covert propaganda of major actors and the frequent appeals of their narratives to the fear factor as a tool of achieving short-term goals at the expense of the same time harming long-term goals. We investigated narratives of target countries’ political spectrum (as internal as well as external actors) which amplify the fear factor (intentionally or unintentionally). We studied the nature of these narratives and the forms of societies’ responses to them. The article is based on the results of an in-depth case study in Georgia and a comparison of the results of other post-communist (post-Soviet and central European) case studies. In the case of Georgia, we identified harmful and useful narratives for the long-term strategic development of the country. This enabled us to identify pressure that might negatively impact the national security of the country. Nowadays, at the background of the development of contemporary communication technologies and highly effective focus of communication channels that can be made on the audience, when we face the transformation of information warfare methods, political communication is necessarily multifaceted and the relevant campaigns do contain elements of psychological warfare. That is, communication texts of political entities mostly contain messages that comprise a component of information warfare and affect the mental health of society.","PeriodicalId":196571,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of The 3rd International Conference on Social Sciences in the 21st Century","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116148755","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
