Foreword by the Editor

Abstract

A special issue of the journal “Culture and Social Psychology” is presented by the articles reflecting a wide range of problems: from analyzing hypotheses about the role of syntax in the cultural development of proto-sapiens to studying cross-cultural features of the attitude of the Internet users in Russia, the USA and Japan to the economy in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. This testifies to the important role of the socio-psychological approach in the study of both the history of the development of human civilization and diversity of cultures in the modern world.
