According to the results of the analysis; perceived price of brand, customer relationships, product characteristics, and product availability were found as determiners of traditional archers’ bow brand preferences.","PeriodicalId":329264,"journal":{"name":"AARN: Other Cultural Anthropology (Topic)","volume":"66 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128184377","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}

Подчеркивается особенность современного периода - переход доминанты институциональных правил от крупных социальных групп к менее крупным, но обладающих большим влиянием и совокупностью капиталов. Обсуждается феномен «спонтанной социализации» применительно к процессам быстрого формирования нового порядка в современных коммуникациях. Высказана идея о возможности применения методологии эволюционной фрактальности и кроссдисциплинарного синтеза естественных, социальных, гуманитарных наук и теологии к исследованию «нормальной» аномии. Показаны возможные пути трансформации социальных институтов или их самосохранения за счет введения «фрактально-рамочного» регулирования, своевременного изменения внутренней структуры, содержания выполняемых функций и скорости изменения социального порядка - необходимых условий устойчивости общества как социальной системы. Представлены варианты рекурсивного распространения фракталов поведения (потенциала «нормальной» аномии) на материалах социологических исследований: а) эффекта дисхроноза - прототипа вариантов концепции «нормальной аномии»; б) применения в блогосфере скрытых инструментов управления; в) продвижения фрактала открытого управления и ответного эффекта сопротивления управленческой среды (свойство резистентности) как ограничения рекурсивного процесса. Поставлен проблемный вопрос, почему одни форматы поведения в социуме фрактально заполняют наше социальное пространство, тогда как другие, не могут осуществлять эти рекурсивные процессы, пребывая в «спящем» состоянии. В качестве гипотезы рассматривается наличие достаточной энергетической мощности рекурсивно распространяемого фрактала (формата поведения) и введение фрактально-рамочного регулирования устойчивости социальной системы.<br><br><b>English Abstract:</b> The author examines the phenomenon of \"normal\" anomie on the example of the transformation of social institutions in a complex society. It is emphasized that the peculiarity of the modern period – the transition of the dominant institutional rules from large social groups to smaller, but with greater influence and a set of capitals. The author examines the phenomenon of \"spontaneous socialization\" in the process of rapid formation of a new order in modern communications. The idea was expressed about the possibility of applying the methodology of evolutionary fractality and crossdisciplinary synthesis of natural and social sciences, humanities and theology to the study of \"normal\" anomie.

Between 1919 and 1986, 34 of the keep-left territories changed to keep-right. No territories shifted in the opposite direction. This paper tests and largely sustains the counterintuitive hypothesis that the reason all changes were in one direction was less that there was any difference between keep-left and keep-right as rules, and more that the geographical position of many keep-left territories happened to put them under pressure to change from keep-right neighbors. This paper also discusses six other potential explanations of change, most of which played some role as well. Finally, it shows that the rule of the road is an example of standardization and convention. The explanations of change proposed for the rule of the road are familiar from many other cases of standardization.","PeriodicalId":329264,"journal":{"name":"AARN: Other Cultural Anthropology (Topic)","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127841638","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}
