 Pandemic Alert!!!

Governments, intergovernmental organizations and civil society

are mobilized to assess the scale of disruption to the cultural sector.
Often within the first days following lockdown, civil society groups –
particularly sector-specific associations (such as music or film),
professional networks or city-based organizations – began monitoring
the impact, often through online surveys.
Empty UNESCO World Heritage sites, cultural events cancelled,
cultural institutions closed, community cultural practices suspended,
heightened risk of looting of cultural sites and poaching at natural
sites, artists unable to make ends meet and the cultural tourism sector
greatly affected. The impact of the COVID-19 on the cultural sector is
being felt around the world. This impact is social, economic and
political it affects the fundamental right of access to culture, the social
rights of artists and creative professionals, and the protection of a
diversity of cultural expressions. The unfolding crisis risks deepening
inequalities and rendering communities vulnerable.

What is It

Culture and Society

Society is a group of people interacting with each other and having a

common culture; sharing common geographical or territorial domain, and
having relatively common aspirations.

TYPES OF SOCIETIES

A. PRE-INDUSTRIAL SOCIETIES

During the pre-industrial society, the main economic activity is food

production carried out through the utilization of human and animal labor.
Particularly, these societies are subdivided according to their level of technology
and their method of producing food. These are hunting and gathering societies,
pastoral societies, horticultural societies, agricultural societies, and feudal
societies.

In these societies main method of food

1. Hunting and gathering production is collection of wild plants and the
society hunting of wild animals on a daily basis. Human
gather and hunt around for foods as nomads.
The prevailing method food production during
2. Pastoral society this period is through pastoralism, more efficient
than the subsistence method.
These societies have learned how to raise fruits
3. Horticultural society
and vegetables grown in the garden plots that

4. Agrarian Society
5. Feudal Society
have provided them their main source of food.
Societies which applied agricultural
technological advances to cultivate crops over a
large area.
As an offshoot of increased food chain, several
groups become wealthy and able to acquire
lands and declared these as their own domain. It
is based on ownership of land.

B. INDUSTRIAL SOCIETIES

An economic system emerged between the 15th and 16th centuries began
to replace feudalism. This is capitalism, the predominant economic system of
industrial societies. Capitalism, characterized by free competition, free market
and the right to acquire private property, emerged. The introduction of foreign
metals, silk, and spices in the market stimulated greater commercial activity in
European societies.

C. POST-INDUSTRIAL SOCIETIES

More advanced societies, called post-industrial societies, dominated by

information, services, and high technology, surfaced. These hallmarks of these
societies were beyond the production of goods. Advanced industrial societies are
shifting toward an increase in service sectors over manufacturing and
production.

D. MODERN SOCIETIES

Our highly industrialized modern society is characterized by mass

production of all essential products such that the subsistence level of food
production is now a thing of the past. Products are sold in markets in large
quantities. People nowadays typically do not need to subsist on their own and
instead buy items they cannot personally produce to live.

CULTURE

Culture is “that complex whole which includes knowledge, beliefs, arts,

morals, laws, customs and any other capabilities and habits acquired by man
as a member of society.” (Edward B. Tylor) The Cambridge English Dictionary
states that culture is “the way of life, especially the general customs and beliefs,
of a particular group of people at a particular time.”

Culture refers to all that man has made for himself through time,
material or non-material still useful or not anymore, all to provide benefits for
his society.
CHARACTERISTICS OF CULTURE

1. Culture is learned. The different habits, skills, values and knowledge are
acquired or learned in the course of a person’s life. This is what we call
enculturation, the acquisition of knowledge, skills, attitudes, and values that
enable men to become active members of their communities.

2. Culture is transmitted. Culture within a social group is transmitted to

succeeding generations through imitation, instruction and example, in the
form of attitudes, values, beliefs and behavioral scripts are passed onto and
taught to individuals and groups.

3. Culture is adaptive. All culture is changes. Changes in the environment are

caused by inventions and discoveries. Man is capable of adjusting to his
environment. Adaption is the process of change in response to a new
environment. It is one component of acculturation, which relates to the
change in a group’s culture or the change in individual psychology in
response to a new environment.

MAIN TYPES OF CULTURE

Material culture deals with the physical culture including contemporary

technology, artifacts relics, fossils, and other tangible remains of cultural
development, past and present. Material culture refers to the tangible and
concrete objects produced by main in the process of social development.

Non-material culture deals with the intangibles including values, norms,

beliefs, traditions, and customs that collectively hold a society and shape
individuals are they interact within society.

ELEMENTS OF NON-MATERIAL CULTURE

Beliefs - are man’s perception about the reality of things and are shared
ideas about how the world his environment operates. They are reflective of
highly valued feelings about the world in which they live. Beliefs are influenced
by emotions, attitudes, values ideology and religion.

Values - refer to the broad preferences of person on the appropriate

course of action or decisions he has to take. Values are a reflection of a person’s
sense of right and wrong. A person’s values sociologically influence his attitudes
and behavior.

Norms - are society’s standard of morality, conduct, propriety, ethics and

legality. Norms vary according to age, gender, religion, politics, economics
ethnicity or race of the group.
 Folkways - are fairly weak forms of norms, whose violation is generally
not considered serious within a particular culture. They are habits, customs,
and repetitive patterns of behavior.

Ideas - comprise man’s concepts of his physical, social and cultural

world as manifested in people’s beliefs and values.

Knowledge - can be natural, supernatural, magical or technical. These

are the body of facts and beliefs that people accumulate over time.

CHARACTERISTICS OF SOCIETY

 Society consists of groups of people who share some likeness such as being
rational, free and bodily. They share similar needs such as food, shelter,
clothing, love, among other things.

 Society does not only consist of groups of people who share a likeness with
everyone but also need to exhibit some differences. These differences among
the people who are members of the same organization or group are simple
made to be different as individuals.

 The self is not the other, and the other is not the other is not the self or me.
Jacques Derrida, a French philosopher, spoke of what he called the alterity
of a person or his otherness. The differences would also be beneficial and
necessary to society as different individuals can perform acts or tasks that
the self may not be capable.

 Different people are endowed with different gifts or talents distinct from
others. Some are good at carpentry, others are good at farming or in
teaching, to name some few professions or strengths. Imagine if everyone is
a fisherman, who would provide us with crops or who build our houses or
who would sew our clothes? Individual differences are not accidental but
natural in the person of every individual.

 These differences among individuals would consequently lead to inter-

dependence which is the following characteristics of society as the case
maybe. This inter-independence is a vital cog in the survival and sustenance
of society’s existence. As we are naturally limited, we need others to fulfill
some of our inadequacies.

 Humans do not live alone, isolated from each other. Instead, individuals
tend to live in communities with other people to help one another not just
along economic needs but also in gaining knowledge or in learning some
ways or means of living happily and collectively.
 Society is its nature of being dynamic and changeable. No society is static.
Every society changes along in time and place. The change both from within
and without manifests in society.

CHANGES IN CULTURE AND SOCIETY

Customs, traditions, folkways, mores, values and institutions go through

some changes as well where new customs and values take place. The present
generation, for instance, shows many changes inside out. The different gadgets
like cellphone of various labels, a variety of iPods, tablets, the proliferation of
shopping malls around the country, notwithstanding the moral permissiveness
you observe in the behaviors and lifestyles of the people especially the youth,
largely define the present society here and elsewhere.

Society cannot exist without its population. The people who constitute
society constitute society constantly engage in a social relationship that brings
them together in group endeavors or activities they do in every day of their lives.
Social relationship is inevitable in society.

The social relationship, however, cannot be possible without going

through the process of socialization.
