For years I have drawn on insights I gained from Bruce Malina's writings on honor/shame cultures. Understanding honor/shame hierarchization helps to understand the Bible's message of the cross of Christ, as well as understanding our own culture.
Tonight I discovered a conference coming to Wheaton College - "Honor, Shame, and the Gospel." This is encouraging to me.
Through this website I found the link to HonorShame.com. Wow - what a great resource!
For example, a complete bibliography on honor/shame studies is here.
The site contains a number of articles, resources, book reviews, etc. See, e.g., how Western culture is becoming more shame-based.
