Abstract

This paper investigates the intersection of culture and economics by analyzing how culturological crises—defined as disruptions in societal values, identity, and cultural cohesion—affect economic performance. Employing a multidisciplinary framework that integrates economic theory, cultural sociology, and political analysis, the study examines both historical and contemporary cases of cultural destabilization. The findings demonstrate that culturological crises undermine social trust, reduce productivity, and weaken institutional capacity, thereby producing significant economic instability.

By challenging traditional economic paradigms that marginalize culture as an external or intangible factor, this research argues for the integration of cultural variables into macroeconomic models and policymaking. Cultural cohesion and trust are shown to function as critical forms of infrastructure for economic resilience, shaping outcomes from investment flows to institutional credibility. Recognizing the economic dimensions of cultural crises provides not only a more holistic understanding of economic failure and recovery but also new pathways for designing policies that strengthen societal stability in an era of global interconnectedness and cultural fragmentation.
