This article presents an analysis conducted from an intercultural perspective of the processes of cultural change, taking place within a specific regional context. The analysis is based on the elaboration of a structural model (LISREL) which starts, through an explorative factorial analysis, from the existing orientation of values expressed in terms of agreement, preferences and aspirations, under the guidelines of Hofstede’s interculture model. The structural model, creating dimensional indexes of culture with a good likelihood level, allows to reach hidden paradigms of the culture that lie behind the declared values and influence those of the future.

Abstract
This article presents an analysis conducted from an intercultural perspective of the processes of cultural change, taking place within a specific regional context. The analysis is based on the elaboration of a structural model (LISREL) which starts, through an explorative factorial analysis, from the existing orientation of values expressed in terms of agreement, preferences and aspirations, under the guidelines of Hofstede’s interculture model. The structural model, creating dimensional indexes of culture with a good likelihood level, allows to reach hidden paradigms of the culture that lie behind the declared values and influence those of the future.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
