Advances in Sociology Research. Volume 32 first introduces the historical development of language diversity from the perspective of the economy and politics in China. The timeline is as follows: Qin Dynasty, Song Dynasty, Ming Dynasty, Qing Dynasty. Following this, a study is included wherein 11 different demographic, socioeconomic and entrepreneurial lenses were used to examine the demographic-socioeconomic-entrepreneurial nexus of more than 3000 U.S. counties. Later, the authors focus on the challenges of housing the urban poor in Jakarta, one of the largest capitals in developing countries. Particularly, urbanization and population growth issues are discussed. Mobilizations regarding migrants, asylum seekers, and refugees in Greece are investigated, as well as pro-migrant and anti-migrant citizen mobilizations and initiatives of solidarity and hostility. In the closing study, the authors check for the presence of power law degree distributions in Facebook Page Networks, analyzing data collected from 325 Facebook fan pages from an Argentinian city.
