4. Two meanings = oppositional.
High culture vs popular culture.
This led to a lot of confusion.
9. Does this shift matter?
Yes, because now culture is no longer
just a small part of the economy
and something quaint for society.
10. Reason 1: Value…
“It seems that people are valuing experiences,
and the things that give their lives meaning.
They are letting go of the consumption
of goods sooner, than letting go of their
consumption and production of culture.”
p.451
11. Reason 2: Foreign relations…
“We are all having much more
interaction with and exposure
to other people and other nations.
We encounter difference at every turn,
what happens on the streets of NY
one minute can lead to riots
in Islamabad the next.
In these circumstances we understand
and misunderstand each other as well,
through the medium of culture.”
p.451
12. Reason 3: Identity…
“…where we define ourselves
not so much by our jobs
- because those come and go -
and not so much by our geography
- because we move around -
but by our cultural consumption and production.
I am who I am, and you are who you are,
because of what we watch, read, listen to, write
and play.”
p.451
13. All this serves to shift the need for culture
