ABSTRACTThe "new rurality" means not only the influence of neoliberal policies in Europe and America have had in rural areas but as, fundamentally, the relationship of reciprocity or resistance that exists between the social and business actors , Indians, peasants and the state in ideological aspects of geographic nature (the urbanization of the countryside, for example), political (the effacement of the other as a peasant, the loss of their identity), economic (the presence of transnational corporations controlling agricultural production and livestock), cultural (the loss of "tradition" as a category that implies the conservation of values and norms of behavior, etc.), religious (paradigm shifts in relation to the concepts of land and property they provide and the breakdown of the relationship man - earth man - nature). Three categories are fundamental in relation to the study of living conditions of the rural population in the above mentioned context: a) the phenomena of "resistance" to the peasants, men and women have faced in terms of policies misnamed "rural development"; b) the erasure by canceling their traditions and their identity c) the phenomenon of hybridization as a result of reciprocity in the integration processes of different models of life. Such categories are widely developed from evidence inductive section through which sets the type of life they live in rural communities where the effects of urban population growth affect everyday and engages.RESUMENSe entiende la “nueva ruralidad” no sólo como la influencia de las políticas neoliberales que tanto en Europa como en América han tenido en el medio rural1 sino como, y fundamentalmente, la relación de reciprocidad o resistencia que se establece entre los actores sociales y empresariales, indígenas, campesinos y el Estado en aspectos ideológicos de índole geográfico ( la urbanización del campo, por ejemplo), político ( el borramiento del otro como campesino; la pérdida de su identidad), económico (la presencia de empresas transnacionales controlando la producción agrícola y ganadera), cultural (la pérdida de la “tradición” como categoría que implica la conservación de valores y normas de comportamiento, etc.), religioso (los cambios de paradigma en relación con las concepciones de la tierra y los bienes que éstos proveen y la ruptura de la relación hombre – tierra; hombre – naturaleza). Tres categorías son fundamentales en relación con el estudio de las condiciones de vida de la población rural en el contexto arriba señalado: a) los fenómenos de “resistencia” que los campesinos, hombres y mujeres, han tenido que enfrentar en función de las políticas del mal llamado “desarrollo rural”; b) el borramiento que implica la anulación de sus tradiciones y de su identidad y c) el fenómeno de hibridación como conse-cuencia de la reciprocidad en los procesos de integración de modelos de vida distintos. Tales categorías serán ampliamente desarrolladas a partir de las evidencias de corte inductivo a través de las cuales se configura el tipo de vida que viven las poblaciones rurales donde los efectos del crecimiento poblacional urbano día a día los afectan y los involucra.

The article discusses a non-standard view of the formation of human capital for work in organizations of the agricultural sector of the economy, in the context of modern socio-economic transformations. In the classical sense, human capital for agriculture should be formed and developed in rural areas. But in real life, this is not always the case, because there are many factors that prevent the classical solution of this problem. First, the demographic factor affects, second, social and household factors, and third, in many rural areas there are no working agricultural organizations where qualified agricultural specialists can work. All these and other circumstances actualize the problem of the quality of human capital in rural areas in relation to the development of agricultural production.

The social policy of a country is a set of specific activities aimed at regulating the social relations between different in their social status subjects. This approach to clarifying social policy is also called functional and essentially addresses social policy as an activity to regulate the relationship of equality or inequality in society. It provides an opportunity to look for inequalities in the economic positions of individuals in relation to ownership, labor and working conditions, distribution of income and consumption, social security and health, to look for the sources of these inequalities and their social justification or undue application.The modern state takes on social functions that seek to regulate imbalances, to protect weak social positions and prevent the disintegration of the social system. It regulates the processes in society by harmonizing interests and opposing marginalization. Every modern country develops social activities that reflect the specifics of a particular society, correspond to its economic, political and cultural status. They are the result of political decisions aimed at directing and regulating the process of adaptation of the national society to the transformations of the market environment. Social policy is at the heart of the development and governance of each country. Despite the fact that too many factors and problems affect it, it largely determines the physical and mental state of the population as well as the relationships and interrelationships between people. On the other hand, social policy allows for a more global study and solving of vital social problems of civil society. On the basis of the programs and actions of political parties and state bodies, the guidelines for the development of society are outlined. Social policy should be seen as an activity to regulate the relationship of equality or inequality between different individuals and social groups in society. Its importance is determined by the possibility of establishing on the basis of the complex approach: the economic positions of the different social groups and individuals, by determining the differences between them in terms of income, consumption, working conditions, health, etc .; to explain the causes of inequality; to look for concrete and specific measures to overcome the emerging social disparities.

Takis Zenetos was enthusiastic about the idea of working from home, and believed that both architecture and urban planning should be reshaped in order to respond to this. He supported the design of special public spaces in residential units, aiming to accommodate the inhabitants during working hours. This article argues that Zenetos’s design for “Electronic Urbanism” was more prophetic, and more pragmatic, than his peers such as Archigram and Constant Nieuwenhuys. Despite the fact that they shared an optimism towards technological developments and megastructure, a main difference between Zenetos’s view and the perspectives of his peers is his rejection of a generalised enthusiasm concerning increasing mobility of people. In opposition with Archigram, Zenetos insisted in minimizing citizens’ mobility and supported the replacement of daily transport with the use advanced information technologies, using terms such as “tele-activity”. Zenetos was convinced that “Electronic Urbanism” would help citizens save the time that they normally used to commute to work, and would allow them to spend this time on more creative activities, at or near their homes. The main interest of “Electronic Urbanism” lies in the fact that it not only constitutes an artistic contribution to experimental architecture, but is also characterized by a new social vision, promising to resynchronize practices of daily life. An aspect that is also examined is the relationship of Zenetos’s ideas and those of the so-called Metabolists in the 1960s in Japan, including Kenzo Tange’s conception of megastructures. Zenetos’s thought is very topical considering the ongoing debates about the advanced information society, especially regarding the social concerns of surveillance, governance, and sovereignty within the context of Big Data. His conception of “tele-activities” provides a fertile terrain for reflecting on potential implications and insights concerning home-office conditions not only within the context of the current pandemic situation but beyond it as well.

Does civic participation lead to a large social network? This study claims that high levels of civic participation may obstruct individual social embeddedness. Using survey data from the German Survey on Volunteering (Deutscher Freiwilligensurvey; 1999–2009), this study conducts macro- as well as multi-level regressions to examine the link between civic participation and social embeddedness. Findings reveal that civic participation on the sub-national regional level is not generally associated with social embeddedness, but it affects the participants’ and non-participants’ possibilities for friendships differently. This holds especially true in urban areas, but the effect cannot be found in rural areas. The analysis has implications for further research to enhance the social embeddedness of the excluded.

The research, based on uses and gratifications theory, identifies consumer motivation and factors that influence consumers' intention to follow brands on the social media platform of Instagram. Accordingly, this study empirically examines the role of need for self-enhancement, the need for entertainment, and deal-seeking behaviour on the intention to follow brands on Instagram. Further, the study investigates the mediation of social media usage behaviour for consumption decisions on eliciting brand following behaviour. Moderation of consumer skepticism on the relationship of deal-seeking behaviour, and intention to follow brands is also investigated. Findings reveal a significant direct effect of need for self-enhancement, need for entertainment, and deal-seeking behaviour on intention to follow brands. Indirect effect of social media usage behaviour for consumption decisions was also significant; however, moderation of consumer skepticism was not found to be significant. The study will help marketers create engaging content that enables consumer-brand interactions.
