Abstract:
As a general rule, man behaves highly complex in a sense that never can we expect predictable responses from him on the basis of the stimulus he receives through common channels. We are not well aware of the mechanism of his performance. This paper is an attempt to offer a relatively explanatory answer to such complexities. To this end, first the notion of culture is defined, and then its components are discussed. Discussions on the origin of culture, culture engineering and systemic modeling mechanism of the formation of culture will also be given due attention. Furthermore, the term “Cultural Engineering” is defined for the purpose of the study and its origin in the army universities of Iran in terms of required management and planning will be discussed. While explaining the mechanism and process of the formation of culture, an algorithm for the cultural engineering operation in this context is offered. In the end, an instrument is devised for schematic representation of the process of the mentioned strategy as well as criteria for the evaluation of culture identified as strategic star will be developed and offered.
