Beschreibung
Essay from the year 2012 in the subject Sociology - Culture, Technology, Peoples / Nations, grade: 2.0, Charles Darwin University, language: English, abstract: Culture and society; two abstract and immaterial words, which we use in our everyday life to describe, who we are and how we live. But are we truly aware of what we sometimes say? Is there really something what we can call a scandal culture? Can something be wrong with society? What makes a society civilised? How does a culture change? How can we contribute to society? What makes a multi-cultural society multi-cultural and what has society actually to do with culture? Sir Edward Burnett Tylor described culture 1871 as "…that complex whole which includes knowledge, belief, art, morals, law, custom, and any other capabilities and habits acquired by man as a member of society…"(Taylor 1871:1). Culture would be the foundation to the whole way of life of a society. Lifestyle would include religion, legal systems, language, values and principles. But does Sir Edward Burnett Taylor’s description of culture apply in the globalised world we’re living in today? Is everyone who shares the same belief, part of the same society? Can we speak different languages within one culture?
