The research work deals with the term “a strong woman” in the XX century in the Caucasus, which was portrayed in “Xatirələrim” (My memories) by Hamida Javanshir. The memoir work gives us the image of a determined woman during the historical events in the face of the important women and the author herself who played significant role in the social life of Azerbaijan. The ignorance of religion highlights the life of an Azerbaijani woman at a time when oriental traditions and the country’s mentality was rampant.

An increasing global focus on sustainability has affected the jewellery industry by raising questions about its environmental and social impacts and ethics due to the negative impacts of gold mining. It is essential to consider the social aspects of mining activities on the socio-economic environment and the affected individuals in order to understand the sustainability of the jewellery industry in a better way. Nonetheless, this is a gap in the evaluation of the issues of jewellery in the other phases of the life cycle, observed in the literature. For these reasons, the goal of this study is to assess the social and socio-economic aspects of a piece of jewellery from the artisan’s point of view by considering the relationship between a piece of jewellery and the local community. The United National Environmental Programme/Society of Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry (UNEP/SETAC) Guidelines on Social Life-Cycle Assessment, the UNEP/SETAC Methodological Sheets and the Subcategory Assessment Method were implemented. The findings show that a piece of jewellery can play an important role in supporting the local cultural heritage by innovating the traditional product, and promoting educational activities related to the history of the product and the territory. Consequently, the local community with its historical background gives an added value to the piece of jewellery. Further research on this topic is desirable in order to improve the knowledge of this particular sector and to identify other social issues that can be involved in this product.

In the modern global world, a study on mentality as a main characteristic of the nation which defines the unity of the religious and cultural tradition of the society is conditioned with the need to develop an effective international religious and cultural cooperation. The purpose of the analysis is to determine religious factors in shaping the Ukrainian mentality taking into account its historical background and the challenges of modernity. The study methodology is based on the principles of the non-confessional approach and philosophical pluralism, involving a system of methods, namely: historical, dialectical, comparative methods, synthesis, and generalization. In the conclusions it is emphasized that mentality is one of the forms of the social experience accumulation, the set of historically accepted ideas, viewpoints, stereotypes, forms and behavior which are laid down is the public consciousness by means of education, culture, religion, a language through the years. Every mental formation has its imaginary lines of a friend and foe which were formed by ideologies, beliefs, and religious values. The religious factors in the formation of mentality reflect the role of the Church as the main regulator of the social life. In the social environment of the Ukrainian nation, a temple can be seen as a peculiar archetypical formation, the part of the landmark, symbolic, communicative, and informational religious system which regulates the public consciousness and it is an integral part of the national memory. The mental archetypes of the national identity stem from the phenomenon of the borderlands, and have shaped in the social context the desire for personal freedom, patriotism, social activity; in the spiritual dimension, it is a willing for the inner world to be protected, sacrifice, mercy, non-violence.

Concerns that arise currently are the development of a culture of hatred, the fading of a culture of love, secularism and social injustice. In the midst of that situation, the Church stands as a concrete manifestation of the face of God's love in the middle of the world. In the Ecclesia de Eucharistia encyclical, John Paul II asserted that the eschatological character emphasize the Christian commitment to the world, especially establish the social life order (cf. EE 20). The Eucharistic dimension of the Eucharist implies that the world order must be transformed as a form of participation towards fulfillment at the end of time. Whereas in the Apostolic Exhortation Sacramentum Caritatis, Benedict XVI, asserted that the Eucharist celebration brings our whole lives into spiritual worship that pleases to God (cf SCar 70). From this research, it is known that the Eucharistic social dimension becomes a spirit of love culture according to the writer. This love culture finds its source and power in the Eucharist. Through the celebration of the Eucharist, people are mystically united with Christ. In the light of the theology of the Eucharistic social dimension of John Paul II and Benedict XVI, mystical union with Christ refers to the oneness of God's thankfulness to the fulfillment of the last days (cf. John 15:13).

For Socrates, wisdom begins with the recognition of a moral order that identifies human flourishing with the life of virtue. The virtuous individual lives in harmony with a world governed by divine benevolence and characterized by justice. Because virtue is found in people in varying degrees, the social order is not necessarily ordered to wisdom and is, at times, inimical to it. Social life is the venue for a pursuit of wisdom in which rational discourse—as opposed to power and manipulation—structures a search for the good. Rational discourse, however, also reveals human moral and intellectual limitations, such that any claim to know what is good must be held tentatively and kept open to revision. In the face of human ignorance and hostility, loyalty to the good is sustained by piety, or reverence for the good, and by integrity, the refusal to give up one’s own just life.

According to some factors such as participation, interactions, identification and security, Iran's traditional bazaars are good examples of social sustainability. In fact, bazaars are not considered as merely an economic environment but also an environment for many social activities due to their status and their location in the important environments and centres of the city, and the significant role and social status of market's businessmen in the city. However, in the modern industrial era and with appearance of new urban elements, it can be observed that many spaces for commuting and many urban traditional environments took important social-cultural functions. Under these circumstances, this research used the descriptive analytical method to focus on evaluating the environments of persistent traditional social business centres in order to achieve persistence in modern social business centres through evaluating and studying the historical background of business centres, urban services and traditional elements that form them.

Since becoming an independent subject, psychology has portrayed itself as a strict science on the way to the development of natural science. Because of breaking away from the social cultural and historical background of human life, scientific psychology is being questioned. In the doubt, non scientific psychology which is closer to social life and can adapt to the human need emerges as the times require. Performance psychology developing from social therapy insists on a new cultural-performatory approach to understanding human life, making psychology research return to life and helping people to restart their development. Non-epistemology, non-diagnosis and non-adaptability are the essential embodiment of performing psychology from the natural science to the post-modern humanities.

In 1912, B’nai B’rith expanded to the North of Europe. At that time, B’nai B’rith was an order for Jewish men, organized in local lodges. In a more informal way, women often participated in the work of the European B’nai B’rith lodges, and in the neighbouring District 8 Germany they were organized in sister circles. The lodges followed strict ceremonials. Much of their image reflected the social life of the bourgeoisie of those days, cultivating, within firm rules of conduct, cultural refinement in letters, music and arts. Charity – the lodges called it benevolence remembering the Jewish commandment of zedaka – was the face of the lodges towards the outside world.

This article is the result of a research work in the village of Batubulan in 1998. In Batubulan there are two kinds of sacred barong which are given the title of Queen Gde Sakti and non-sacred Barong Tetamon for tourists’ performance. The two barong have the same shapes but have different functions. The sacred Barong (Ratu Gde Sakti) serves to drive out or neutralize all the diseases that are unseen, while the barong tetamon’s goal is to earn money. The sacred barong is housed at a place considered holy and sacred, being sacred on a particular day. While barong tetamon performs every day in the local stage without considering the good day, whether sacred or not. Tourists can watch the barong tetamon dance every day by paying the appropriate admission price that has been fixed by the owner of the stage. As a result of staging the many symbols and others, the sacred barong dance functions have changed their meaning when performed in the form of Barong Tetamon. De-sacralization processes have happened on various forms, e.g. the making, ceremonies, plays, the staging, staging time, and others. These changes are related to degrading the sacredness where there have been changes to the social meaning of barong dance. Due to changes in the meaning of it, it will slowly bring the cultural change of the society into a cultural market, particularly that of religion.
