Structure Determines Behavior
Behavior Becomes Identity
The Structure is Rapidly Changing
in a Non-Linear Way

You are the Cultural Buyer
Thank You
![Page 25: Identity Diaspora & The Future](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022020116/55a5e7c31a28abb6128b4614/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
To the Extent We Have Access to Enhanced Mobility & Interconnectness, it is...
EASIER for Diaspora Groups to Remain Cohesive
EASIER to Access Many Cultural Value Offerings, including Values, Biases & Fears
EASIER to Remit Money & Invest Abroad
EASIER to Consume “Alien” Media and to “reject” elements of home culture
EASIER to Crowd-Organize and paradoxically sometimes to Monitor
HARDER to Protect Privacy & Intellectual Assets
HARDER to Disappear
These Axioms Have Exceptions,
These New Patterns Are Monetized,
and Geographic Boundaries Mean Less.
Access is Growing.Thank you.
