5. LEVELS OF THE REGULATORY FUNCTION OF CULTURE
The regulatory function of culture manifests itself in a system of norms and requirements that are binding on all members of society in order to maintain its integrity and ensure the harmony of intergroup interests.
The regulatory function of culture is carried out at a number of levels. The highest of these are the norms of morality (rules of conduct that have been established in society in accordance with moral ideas about good and evil, justice and injustice, duty, honor, dignity, etc.).
Moral standards - these are unwritten requirements that function in society in the form of principles, concepts, ideas, assessments. Moral norms are not the product of some specialized institutional activity. Their implementation is ensured not by coercion, but by moral persuasion (conscience) or by means of public opinion through the approval or condemnation of certain actions.
The next level at which the regulatory function of culture is carried out is rules of law. In contrast to moral norms, legal norms are institutional, that is, directly related to the structural organizations of society, and are based on its most important social institutions. Legal norms are established and sanctioned by the state. As institutionalized regulators of people's behavior, they are enshrined in strictly defined documentary forms (regulations, laws) that have legal force. Ensuring legal norms often requires the use of government coercive measures.
An integral part of culture, where its regulatory function is manifested, are customs. Norms of custom were historically the first social norms.
Norms of custom - these are rules of conduct that, as a result of long-term application, become a habit of people and thus regulate their behavior. Customs are very stable and conservative. Customs are nationally colored, retain their originality.
Traditions are closely connected with customs (historically formed elements of social and cultural heritage, passed down from generation to generation). Along with customs, traditions provide continuity in social development.
Customs and traditions are manifested in rites and rituals (this is a set of stereotypical symbolic actions that embody certain ideas, ideas, values and evoke certain feelings).
Ceremonies and rituals have been and are being performed in many events of life that are especially significant for the individual and society.
The next everyday level of culture is etiquette standards, communication culture.

Latest news of science and technology, new electronics:
The existence of an entropy rule for quantum entanglement has been proven
09.05.2024
Quantum mechanics continues to amaze us with its mysterious phenomena and unexpected discoveries. Recently, Bartosz Regula from the RIKEN Center for Quantum Computing and Ludovico Lamy from the University of Amsterdam presented a new discovery that concerns quantum entanglement and its relation to entropy. Quantum entanglement plays an important role in modern quantum information science and technology. However, the complexity of its structure makes understanding and managing it challenging. Regulus and Lamy's discovery shows that quantum entanglement follows an entropy rule similar to that for classical systems. This discovery opens new perspectives in the field of quantum information science and technology, deepening our understanding of quantum entanglement and its connection to thermodynamics. The results of the study indicate the possibility of reversibility of entanglement transformations, which could greatly simplify their use in various quantum technologies. Opening a new rule ... >>

Energy from space for Starship
08.05.2024
Producing solar energy in space is becoming more feasible with the advent of new technologies and the development of space programs. The head of the startup Virtus Solis shared his vision of using SpaceX's Starship to create orbital power plants capable of powering the Earth. Startup Virtus Solis has unveiled an ambitious project to create orbital power plants using SpaceX's Starship. This idea could significantly change the field of solar energy production, making it more accessible and cheaper. The core of the startup's plan is to reduce the cost of launching satellites into space using Starship. This technological breakthrough is expected to make solar energy production in space more competitive with traditional energy sources. Virtual Solis plans to build large photovoltaic panels in orbit, using Starship to deliver the necessary equipment. However, one of the key challenges ... >>
| Random news from the Archive Cosmic ray clock synchronization
04.06.2022
Geophysicist Hiroyuki Tanaka of the University of Tokyo put forward the idea of simultaneously synchronizing clocks around the globe using cosmic rays. The principle is simple, he says, and the technology to do it already exists.
Atomic clocks can keep accurate for decades, but they are expensive and difficult to synchronize in remote areas. Synchronization by satellite signals also has problems in the regions of the poles, under water and in the mountains.
Hiroyuki Tanaka proposed a new method - space time synchronization (CTS). It is based on the use of so-called extensive air showers arising from cosmic rays entering the atmosphere.
These rays create a "shower" of various particles, including muons flying towards the Earth at near-light speed and therefore reaching the earth's surface at the same time. By fixing their arrival, CTS devices can synchronize with each other in real time.
"The principle is simple, and the technology, sensors and electronics already exist. So we can implement this idea quite quickly," the author believes. According to him, clocks can be synchronized throughout the planet in this way, since showers of particles occur frequently.
