Introduction to Sociology/Culture/Bokyung Kim
1. summary
-High culture
The degree of culture richness differs from
country to country. Culture is related to cultivation. People who use this
culture believe that there is a static culture.
-The Changing Concept of Culture
Culture has evolved into a more comprehensive
concept. This allows us to better distinguish between different cultures.
Middleton said that human instincts were
formed culturally. Culture is created by people who are separated from each
other. It is also likely to spread to other groups. Anthropologists distinguish
between material and symbolic cultures.
Abstraction is very good when you
understand the concept precisely. Artificial categorization also helps to
understand culture.
Subculture is a culture created by a small number of people. They form their own sense of identity, out of social standards. Subcultural members are a combination of various elements and characteristics.
Ethnocentrism sees different cultures in terms of their own culture.
Cultural relativism recognizes cultural diversity.

George Ritzer's macro and micro theory describes how cultural norms can affect individual behavior. Culture has a pragmatic function. But it also has the ability to maintain social inequality. Culture can change easily. Culture can touch each other, which makes the culture diverse Sociologists study and understand culture and call it cultural sociology. Culture is everything that provides meaning to people.
2.What was the most interesting thing you have read?
After reading this writing, I was curious
about subculture. In this article, examples of subcultures include bicycle
riders and military culture. I was surprised that these seemingly minor things
are called cultures. I also want to study other examples
of subcultures.
3. Dicussion point
This writing says that culture is pragmatic
but maintains social inequality.
In other words, positive functions and negative functions coexist in the functions of culture.
Do you feel that the function of culture is more prevalent on which side?
Is there an example to explain it?

I think that the positive effects of culture are more prevalent than the negative ones in my life. For example, the culture of honorific expression of our country shows the meaning of respecting each other to our people and it keeps the politeness of each other.
