Rural Local Community: A Functional Analysisof Socio-Cultural Development

The study of the dynamics of the socio-cultural development of rural local communities under the conditions of multipolarity, multidirectional and asynchronous changes in their socio-economic space, from the point of view of the systemic approach, makes it possible to present the complex processes of rural social and cultural development. Based on the typology of functions that determine the basic strategies for the socio-cultural development of rural communities, a simulation model is proposed for analyzing the dynamics of the socio-cultural development of the village. The model has a sufficiently high degree of adequacy, verification and contributes to the formation of scientifically based conclusions. A simulation-based agent model enables the transition to the simulation of socio-cultural phenomena and processes, and the construction of their forecast scenarios.
