Курсовая работа: Теория социокультурных систем english
Has no ability to generate complicated internal structure of own space. It’s homogeneous because of its insignificant size and in the absence of systematic work with own space as well as neighbouring territories during historically considerable intervals of time
Socio-cultural buffer zone
Has no ability to generate complicated internal structure of own space. The latter is extremely unstable and changeable, and depends on outer factors, in particular, conditions and conflicts of the neighbouring SCS-s
Mixed socio-cultural region
Has no ability to generate complicated internal structure of own space. The latter is extremely unstable and changeable, and depends on outer factors, in particular, conditions and conflicts of the neighbouring SCS-s
1.5. Ability to generate civilizations as a form of the own territory
sporadic colonization and assimilation, at the early stages of evolution
Socio-cultural system
Does have such ability. At the early stages of evolution SCS-s may produce isolated civilizations. Later on, as SCS develops and evolves, it absorbs these civilizations into itself. Generating civilizations is a unique, but, none the less, not obligatory quality and indication of the SCS: it depends on a specific (regional) conditions of a historical process
Socio-cultural domain
Unable to generate civilizations. In spite of their whatever great age and antiquity, SCD-s do not invent such forms of the territories’ colonization / assimilation
Socio-cultural buffer zone
Unable to generate civilizations
Mixed socio-cultural region
Unable to generate civilizations
1.6. Ability to independently generate one or several stable states
within own socio-cultural space
Socio-cultural system
Possesses the ability to independentrly generate one or several stable states. Number of states depends on a stage of the SCS evolution and may vary greatly (from one state occupying the whole SCS territory, and up to several dozens)
Socio-cultural domain
This ability manifests itself depending on the SCD’s type:
1. Stable SCD with stable population and stable homeland, as a rule, generates one stable state;
2. Sporadic SCD with homeland where its population may be absent for centuries, generates one state which however exists only from time to time
Socio-cultural buffer zone
Never independently generates stable states. Buffer states constantly change their boundaries and, in general, greatly vary in their sizes and configurations. Subject to (conflicting) interests and conditions of competing neighbouring SCS-s, they may be represented either by one or several states. Any buffer states are extremely unstable and always greatly depend on external factorsd (conditions and relations of neighbouring SCS-s, in particular)
Mixed socio-cultural region
Never independently generates stable states, though areas inhabited by certain population - but never states - may be quite stable. May have both one or several states as well as no states at all: everything depends on positions of SCS-s participating in the region’s assimilation, and the stage of evolution of the mixed region itself
1.7. Concentration of the considerable reserves of vitally important
natural resources within own socio-cultural space
Socio-cultural system
Usually possesses considerable reserves of vitally important natural resources. Their structure differs significantly and, of course, depends on previous geological history of the SCS territory, but in general available resources allow the SCS’ economy to exist, in practice, autonomously
Socio-cultural domain
SCD’s territory, as a rule, isn’t considerable in itself, and most often reserves of vitally important natural resources are not contained there. In case of Northern SCD, their independent exploitation is in fact impossible due to primitive level of this SCD’s general progress
Socio-cultural buffer zone
As a rule, there are no considerable reserves of vitally important natural resources within socio-cultural buffer zones. And if such resources are found, then unstable space of a buffer zone becomes an object for the next re-partition by competing neighbouring SCS-s, and buffer zone itself is again left without an important natural resource
