The social psychological literature considers two main perspectives on the study of perceived cultural differences between majorities and minorities: one proposes that perception of cultural differences is an antecedent of prejudice and another states that the attribution of cultural differences to minorities is already a hidden expression of racial prejudice. This paper offers further support ...

‎This paper develops a basic theory of $H$-groups‎. ‎We‎ ‎introduce a special quotient of $H$-groups and‎ ‎extend some algebraic constructions of topological groups to the category‎ ‎of H-groups and H-maps and then present a functor from this category to the category of quasitopological groups‎.

Most research links (racial) essentialism to negative intergroup outcomes. We propose that this conclusion reflects both a narrow conceptual focus on biological/genetic essence and a narrow research focus from the perspective of racially dominant groups. We distinguished between beliefs in biological and cultural essences, and we investigated the implications of this distinction for support of ...

in addition to exploring constructions and properties of limits and colimits in categories of topologicalalgebras, we study special subcategories of topological algebras and their properties. in particular, undercertain conditions, reflective subcategories when paired with topological structures give rise to reflectivesubcategories and epireflective subcategories give rise to epireflective subc...

these are notes from introductory survey lectures given at the institute for studies in theoretical physics and mathematics (ipm), teheran, in 2008 and 2010. we present the definition and the fundamental properties of fomin-zelevinsky’s cluster algebras. then, we introduce quiver representations and show how they can be used to construct cluster variables, which are the canonical generators of ...

The deficiency of our present education in moulding the future generation to develop a social and natural out look is discussed in this paper. Also the author lighlights here the significance Adhyatma forms of teaching and cultural evolution takes place to that effect.

Launched in 2010, the Google Books Ngram Viewer offers a novel means of tracing cultural change over time. This digital tool offers exciting possibilities for cultural psychology by rendering questions about variation across historical time more quantitative. Psychologists have begun to use the viewer to bolster theories about a historical shift in the United States from a more collectivist to ...

Over the past few decades an emerging group of social scientists have been adopting evolutionary approaches to study socio-cultural change. Some have taken this approach to reconceptualise the small business’ struggle for survival as an evolutionary process in which the entrepreneur must ‘learn to evolve’. In this chapter, this practice-based evolutionary language is explored. Entrepreneurial l...
