RESUMO

The sociocultural stochastic modeling introduced by Robert Axelrod is traditionally referred to as the maintenance of cultural diversity. Since it generates the appearance of heterogeneities on a steady state, even the primordial interaction tends to gauge the interactors. Due to its simplicity, numerous interpretations of this model were studied, as well as additions and minor modifications. One example of a possible change in the model can be a constant external field, interpreted as the media. Another example of a reinterpretation could be changing the Axelrod Model bipolar interaction by a cultural assimilation, using the mechanism of frequency bias. This dissertation aims to study the Axelrod simulation with and without the external media. In order to simulate the external media we will add a virtual neighbor to all elements. Furthermore, we analyze the mechanism of assimilation via Bias frequency, showing its relationship with the model of majority voting in Statistical Mechanics.
