在未来几十年里，人们、组织和政府将面临的主要挑战之一是如何应对密集城市地区的复杂性。定义、解释和建模与密集城市地区发展相关的社会文化因素将是研究人员在研究密集城市地区时面临的最复杂的问题之一。在本文中，我们试图展开讨论，并通过进行文献综述，并基于Verba、Binder、Coleman、La Palombara、Pye和Weiner（1971）的政治发展模型创建一个概念框架，开始定义建模过程。该模型强调了政治发展的六个关键要素，我们将其作为出发点，开始确定密集城市地区的关键社会文化因素。我们的框架还着手确定松散和紧密一体化城市中因素关系的差异。变量之间的相互关系和变量的递归性质是我们在对密集城市地区的社会文化动态建模时发现的一些主要困难。
Coming to terms with the complexity of dense urban areas represents one of the major challenges people, organizations and governments will face in the next few decades. Defining, explaining and modeling socio-cultural factors associated with the development of dense urban regions will be among the most complex problems researchers will face when studying dense urban areas. In this paper, we seek to open the discussion and begin to define the modeling process by conducting a literature review and creating a conceptual framework based on Verba, Binder, Coleman, La Palombara, Pye, & Weiner’s (1971) model of political development. The model emphasizes six key elements of political development, which we use as a point of departure to begin to identify key socio-cultural factors of dense urban areas. Our framework also embarks on identifying a difference between factor relationships in loosely and tightly integrated cities. The interrelationship between variables and the recursive nature of variables are some of the major difficulties we identify when it comes to modeling sociocultural dynamics in dense urban areas.
