Polo-long pattern of community life that are considered outdated and no longer relevant will be replaced with new life patterns that do not fit the needs of present and future. [1] But others argue that the change is also happening in a society can be caused by a disruption of the balance or the lack of synchronization, the disruption of this balance will result in tensions in the human body, but it is also the dissatisfaction of a society on the condition of the existing culture.
On the other hand is dominant in the change itself, should not be denied due to a recent discovery (invention), population growth and the growing culture (culture).
