SORU:

Why should culture  be viewed as a passive heritage and active process of creating meaning?


CEVAP:

Cultures cannot be seen in a homogeneous and monolithic form because they contain many forms of behavior and belief that differ or clash within themselves. Members of a culture can be influenced by different interpretations within their own culture, or by the beliefs and customs of other cultures. There is not just one single essence of culture. There are different traditions and different ways of thinking. No culture can isolate itself from conflicts and change. Conflicts between different classes, genders, cultural communities and generations are, more or less, present in all cultures. For this reason, culture should be viewed not only as a passive heritage, but as an active process of creating meaning. No matter how old and rooted, culture is not a fixed structure that never changes.
