Micro-societies behavioral patterns

Abstract

Human behavior, either individual or collective, is sociologically defined based on uniform behavioral patterns, uniformity in socially accepted ways of acting, feeling, and thinking. However, given the dynamic nature of society and culture, there are changes in the behavioral patterns of individuals and groups that break the balance between social and cultural systems.
Such is the case of urban tribes and different social groups which generate balance and structural changes in the universe of the symbolic apparatus when deviating from the established behavioral pattern.
When tribes and groups propose a different model of normality, they become an example of progress implied either in the interaction between groups and individuals or in a setback in the communities constituted around certain values. In any case, this is the origin of new forms of social interaction in very close relationship with society and culture.
In the study of this phenomenon, the methodology involves assuming the perspective of change from the strength of the resistance or the orientation given by the adopted model, or both, since not every social action is either based on the values defined by culture and their full coordination, or is set to the symbolic apparatus and compliance.
