Answer:

Yes, the widespread use of electronic communication technology has reduced cultural lag because information is shared much more widely and the average person has the ability to make their ideas and opinions more public more easily than in the past.  

Explanation:

Cultural lag is defined as the relatively slower advance of a particular aspect of a culture, especially nonmaterial elements like meanings or beliefs. One example would be how the use of the internet has increased drastically during the pandemic, while before the pandemic employers resisted the idea of working from home and many employees also felt that virtual meetings were not as effective as face-to-face meetings. We are now seeing some of these biases about technology and virtual work being challenged and overcome given our new circumstances. Ideas are now shared across borders much more easily so governments especially in the Global South are now held to standards that are more international than in the past and human rights issues can be more easily shared and reacted to on a transnational level. This is one reason why countries that are not as open socially and politically like China are so keen to control the modes of communication like the internet.

What is the current residency requirement for aliens to obtain citizenship? Generally speaking, what are the rest of the steps t
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer

Hi,

The current residency requirement for aliens to obtain citizenship is to apply for citizenship after five years of residence. This depends on a number of factors too. If a person is married to a U.S citizen and living in the States for three years that person can qualify to apply for naturalization right away. If a person is an asylee, he or she waits for four years after permanent residence was approved before application. For refugees, they wait for five years since the date they entered the U.S.

The steps to citizenship for immigrants are;

• Finding if you are eligible to apply. Here one needs to obtain a green card. Other requirements at this stage are good moral characters, passing the English test and having knowledge of history and government of the U.S

• Step two is to overcome challenges in the eligibility process. In case you failed in step one, contact an immigration attorney that can conduct a full analysis and change your status of eligibility.

• Filing the USCIS Form N-400- This is a paper work procedure with the immigration services authority. The filing of the form costs $640 when applying for naturalization with additional charges for biometrics.

• Attending biometric s Appointment-This is vital because finger prints will be obtained .This step is important to obtain clearance from FBI database.

• Citizenship Interview-This is conducted at an USCIS office after receiving the appointment date. In the interview, the N-400 form will be reviewed and a test on English knowledge and history of America will be conducted by the officer.

• Oath Ceremony-After approval from the USCIS officer a person is summoned to attend a public ceremony with other individuals to take the oath. A certificate of naturalization is offered at this step that shows the person is a citizen of the United States of America.

Good Luck!

Characteristics of renaissance art on Cupid by Michelangelo?
hram777 [196]
The problem is that "Cupid" is now lost (thought to have been destroyed in 1698 in a fire on London), so we only know about the characteristics of Cupid from stories. It is said to have been treated with acidic earth with Michaelangelo at the time, to make it appear older. The cupid was sleeping  on a bed-like structure.
