24. CULTURE AND SOCIETY
Understanding society and its relationship with culture is best achieved from a systematic analysis of being.
Human society - this is a real and concrete environment for the functioning and development of culture.
Society and culture actively interact with each other. Society makes certain demands on culture, culture, in turn, affects the life of society and the direction of its development.
For a long time, the relationship between society and culture was built in such a way that society was the dominant side. The nature of culture directly depended on the social system that governed it (imperatively, repressively, or liberally, but no less decisively).
Many researchers believe that culture arose primarily under the influence of social needs.
It is society that creates opportunities for the use of cultural values, contributes to the processes of reproduction of culture. Outside of social forms of life, these features in the development of culture would be impossible.
In the XNUMXth century the balance of power between the two sides of the sociocultural sphere has changed radically: now social relations began to depend on the state of material and spiritual culture. The determining factor in the fate of humanity today is not the structure of society, but the degree of development of culture: having reached a certain level, it entailed a radical reorganization of society, the entire system of social management, and opened a new path to the establishment of positive social interactions - dialogue.
Its goal is not only the exchange of social information between representatives of different societies and cultures, but also the achievement of their unity.
In the interaction of society and culture, there is not only a close connection, there are also differences. Society and culture differ in ways of influencing a person and adapting a person to them.
Society is a system of relations and ways of objectively influencing a person. The inner life of man is not filled with social demands.
Forms of social regulation are accepted as certain rules necessary for existence in society. But in order to meet social requirements, cultural prerequisites are necessary, which depend on the degree of development of the cultural world of a person.
In the interaction of society and culture, the following situation is also possible: society can be less dynamic and open than culture. Society can then reject the values offered by culture. The opposite situation is also possible, when social changes can outpace cultural development. But the most optimally balanced change in society and culture.

Latest news of science and technology, new electronics:
The existence of an entropy rule for quantum entanglement has been proven
09.05.2024
Quantum mechanics continues to amaze us with its mysterious phenomena and unexpected discoveries. Recently, Bartosz Regula from the RIKEN Center for Quantum Computing and Ludovico Lamy from the University of Amsterdam presented a new discovery that concerns quantum entanglement and its relation to entropy. Quantum entanglement plays an important role in modern quantum information science and technology. However, the complexity of its structure makes understanding and managing it challenging. Regulus and Lamy's discovery shows that quantum entanglement follows an entropy rule similar to that for classical systems. This discovery opens new perspectives in the field of quantum information science and technology, deepening our understanding of quantum entanglement and its connection to thermodynamics. The results of the study indicate the possibility of reversibility of entanglement transformations, which could greatly simplify their use in various quantum technologies. Opening a new rule ... >>

Energy from space for Starship
08.05.2024
Producing solar energy in space is becoming more feasible with the advent of new technologies and the development of space programs. The head of the startup Virtus Solis shared his vision of using SpaceX's Starship to create orbital power plants capable of powering the Earth. Startup Virtus Solis has unveiled an ambitious project to create orbital power plants using SpaceX's Starship. This idea could significantly change the field of solar energy production, making it more accessible and cheaper. The core of the startup's plan is to reduce the cost of launching satellites into space using Starship. This technological breakthrough is expected to make solar energy production in space more competitive with traditional energy sources. Virtual Solis plans to build large photovoltaic panels in orbit, using Starship to deliver the necessary equipment. However, one of the key challenges ... >>
| Random news from the Archive Sapper rats are better than metal detectors
28.09.2015
In Cambodia, where more than 1970 million anti-personnel mines were planted during the civil war in the 6s, unexpected helpers are used to detect mines. They turned out to be specially trained rats that work not only better than metal detectors, but also sapper dogs.
Gambian hamster rats not only sniff out mines faster, but also cover large areas at a much faster rate than larger sappers. Due to their weight, rats cannot be blown up by an anti-personnel mine, their sense of smell is much stronger than that of dogs, and they work autonomously, without the handler that dogs need.
Rodent sappers are trained by the non-profit organization "Apopo", which was founded in 1998 by the creator of the project, Bart Vidzhens, an engineer from Antwerp. Rats are trained from birth to sniff out TNT, after which they must explore the training minefield and correctly mark the place where they found the mine, after which the rodents receive a reward. After nine months of training, the rats are ready to start the real demining.
On the spot, the rats are put on a collar and led around the field with a long pole. Having found a mine, the rodent does not try to dig it out, but only mark it so that specially trained people will take care of the projectile. Rats are incredibly efficient, covering a 200-square-meter area in thirty minutes, while it takes at least three days for human sappers.
After five years of work, the sapper rodents retire and live out the rest of their lives at the Apopo headquarters in Tanzania, where they are cared for and fed.
In total, Gambian rats have found 56 mines and unexploded ordnance since the organization's inception and cleared an area of about 000 million square meters.
