In modern times, many purposeful or compulsory changes have occurred in all forms of production that build a society. Folklore is a definition of the modern era, but its ontological philosophy, function and role is as old as human history. But modernization, industrialization, postmodernity and the digital revolution have more influenced and re-created the natural flow of folklore productions. In the classical period, folkloric objects, with their natural, human and social functions, assumed constructive and guiding roles. When we came to the modern era, this building and guidance role, combined with macro-political objectives, gained a primary political dimension. It also took a new role as an important form of identity building. Also, in Western societies, local folklore objects have been faced with legal restrictions for a long period of time and some pejorative practices. However, Western folklore began to influence other societies with various modern means. Unfortunately, in the postmodern and digital era, some new possibilities have been born to local objects. But during this period, the natural production of the classical era, as the structural factor of the modern era, the folkloric heritage has almost completely lost its classical functions with its roles added to the growing industry of digital decay, outsourced, instrumentalized, consumption and global market; and its modern functions have begun to lose its validity. Folkloric production has entered into the dynamic, organic mechanisms of human communities. Because of the characteristics of the production belonging to the folklore, it is largely virtual, even fictional, but the element of the pure project is not from the tribe of engineering work. First of all, there are social, historical, cultural facts as they are laid down. Some are born of cases, sensitivities and goals. However, they are not stable. We can talk from time to time, from situation to future, of an organic, open to explanation, living and personal phenomenon. These products are direct engineering work, a commercial meth, a digital effect, etc. The fact that the industrial culture becomes part of it also means that it completely loses its natural function and loses its roles in organizing social dynamism. This indicates not only the crisis of folklore productions, but also the profound impact of social construction and social formations. The changes in the folkloric objects, such as the changes in valuable social objects, are not linear and completely similar. However, the spirit of time, the influence of great paradigms, global great motivations, and similar main factors influence the direction of all social events in this or that way. Especially in the last few centuries, the great changes in the West have not only shaped the Western communities but have also greatly affected the Western communities. Therefore, the epistemological classification in the form of the classical period (pre-modern period), and postmodern-digital period, which is almost identical to the Western socio-political history, helps us to systematically address the developments. In this context, all cultural objects, primarily folkloric objects in the Western and non-Western societies, were formed in the beginning according to the functioning of social dynamics, while in the modern era it gained a quality that was re-formed by the hands of the state and in particular by the influence of the Westernization was also undergoing structural transformation. But when we come to the postmodern-digital era, new technologies and professionals faced a multi-touch of folklore objects have had to change their role in a variety of ways. In this framework, some findings and suggestions were made by analyzing the nature and direction of folkloric changes, depending on the definition of the classical period, modern period and postmodern digital period. Study is a comparative theoretical study.
