In recent years, research about consumer behavior has not lost its relevance in the face of increased competition and global economic change. In the marketing field specialists are also constantly looking for new solutions that scientists are researching in consumer behavior and vice versa. Modern research on consumer behavior in the market has been conducted mainly by scientists in the USA, Germany and the United Kingdom. It should be noted that a large part of the research is based on the study of psychological and social aspects of consumer behavior, but less on the modeling and prediction of consumer behavior. Purpose and methods. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of marketing on consumer behavior, including special attention to different age groups if they have been studied over the last five years and to answer the question – what is the role of marketing in customer behavior? To address the research question, the author conducted a systematic review of the literature following the rules proposed by David Denyer and David Tranfield. The process of the systematic literature review followed in this study aims to identify the relevant literature related to consumer behavior in relation to marketing and select and synthesize the themes with respect to the research question in a transparent, complete and rigorous manner. Results. Over the last five years, from 2018 to the beginning of 2022, research on consumer behavior in relation to different marketing directions has been studied extensively and in different countries. Marketing provides opportunities not only to learn about consumers, but also to tailor activities to appeal to new and existing products. Research has shown that green marketing seeks to change consumer behavior to make it more sustainable. Conclusions. Researchers' studies on consumer behavior is becoming more relevant. The role of marketing in consumer behavior is important regardless of the industry, country and customer age.","PeriodicalId":34756,"journal":{"name":"SocioCultural Management Journal","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-11-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46638874","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}

Socio-cultural activity managers' training involves students’ mastering and fluent operating the concepts of “cultural landscape” and “semiosphere”, which are used to carry out hermeneutic and semiotic analyses of regional and world culture phenomena.

The article aims to reveal the main provisions of spatial semiotics and landscape hermeneutics and determine their didactic potential in the context of socio-cultural activity managers' training. Research methods include analyzing cultural, art history, and philosophical literature, theoretical generalization, and synthesis. Results. When analyzing cultural space and cultural phenomena as texts, concepts and terms are used that characterize cultural space as a semiotic system: language, text, metatext, intertextuality, and communication. One of the essential shared objects of spatial semiotics and landscape hermeneutics is the city, the high degree of semioticization determined by such essential features as “doneness” and “artificiality”. Conclusions. Space and culture interact and influence each other. At the same time, spatial categories such as “center”, and “periphery” appear as universal models for describing texts and phenomena of any branch of the cultural sphere. The analysis of landscape and cultural phenomena is carried out according to the parameters of the level of semiotic saturation of the environment; the level of significance of symbolic activity; the intensity of semiotic exchange; level of self-identification.","PeriodicalId":34756,"journal":{"name":"SocioCultural Management Journal","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-11-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41509001","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}

Every day, the vast majority of society members are active consumers of various types of socio-cultural products. This gives a significant impetus to the more progressive development of the socio-cultural sphere and the need to improve the quality of its products. The question of how exactly to measure and analyze the consumer's perception of the quality of a certain socio-cultural product is relevant. To understand how a consumer evaluates the quality of a certain socio-cultural product, first of all, it is necessary to discover how he builds his own logical judgments about this product. Purpose and methods. The purpose of the article is to study the characteristics that determine consumers' conclusions about the quality of a socio-cultural product, regardless of whether they do it directly or indirectly. The research methodology consists of the application of system-functional and system-structural analysis as the theoretical basis of this study, which precisely allows the revealing of the relationship between these characteristics. Results. Determining the causal structure of the conceptual representation of a socio-cultural product – a park of culture and recreation, making it possible to reveal a clear relationship between the nature of the property, its causal status, accessibility for understanding, and its significance. The nature of the property determines its place in the system of relationships. Structural properties have the obvious status of a cause, procedural properties determine the obvious status of an effect, and an impression is an impression and a point of convergence of several relationships.

Кардинальні зміни, які сьогодні відбуваються під впливом глобалізації, обумовлюють серйозні претензії до теорії менеджменту, оскільки вона не повністю враховує сутність об’єкта управління – людини, в основі якої лежить культура як щось, що саме по собі ірраціональне й важко виразиме, якщо виразиме взагалі, у скільки-небудь раціональних і вимірних формах. Проте, як виявляється, ні особливого інструментарію, ні розробленої методології роботи з окремою людиною як носієм певної культури в теорії управління немає. У зв’язку з цим актуалізується проблема культури менеджменту. Мета і методи. Мета статті полягає у філософсько-культурологічному осмисленні культури менеджменту як феномену гармонійної організації життєдіяльності суспільства.
