When entering into a new environment that is unlike your own you can experience culture shock.

 My hometown, Reno, Nevada, is held together by organic solidarity.
Disenchantment is shown here with an ATM which eliminates face to face interaction with people. Machines like this are creating our society to become dehumanized.

Capitalism is an economic system characterized by private ownership of goods such as companies like Coca-Cola. 
This is a picture of a Jewish synagogue. Strong religions can create social cohesion through Mechanical solidarity.
