Culture is the ideas, concepts, behaviors, customs, habits, representative figures, and all activities radiating from the overall consciousness of a group (which can be a country, but also a nation, a company, a family) formed over a certain period of time. Traditionally, a person is said to be literate or uneducated in terms of the level of education he has received. The latter is a narrow interpretation, the former a broad one. It is every object, habit, idea, institution, mode of thinking and mode of behavior that is produced or created by human beings and later passed on to others, especially to the next generation. Culture promotes the development of human society. Culture promotes the biological evolution of the human body.

Editor's Summary

Culture is the concept of the correspondence and integration of human beings and nature, and is the sum of the material and spiritual wealth created by human beings in the course of social and historical development.

Culture refers only to spiritual or conceptual culture, mainly to the aspects related to human spiritual activity and its products, i.e., the styles and all other abilities and habits of human beings in the form of members of a society.

Culture includes national culture, traditional culture, etc., and is the sum of all human activities and the sediment of history.

Every person's idea is a cultural information, it will form a private turbulence of culture with rules.

People often fail to correctly state the extension and connotation of culture.

The Gaming Bible says: the spirit is nothingness, without personality, self-constituting at the level of superficial ignorance, harmonizing with the rhythm of nature in brilliant combinations. Feeling, thinking is the original beginning of physiological and psychological energy, from nothing to the state of the soul movement between the shadow and the breath, this abstract, chaotic system is impossible to find, which constitutes the primary stage of culture. Culture is only process, without a core, a spiritual lie of nothingness, but split into two pieces of different sizes. The end of the grudge game in the cultural process is civilization. The eternity, universality and uniqueness of civilization is science. The innovative strategic structure of the cultural process is the non-absolute antagonism in the theory of national justice. Every human idea is a cultural information, which will form a private turbulence of culture with rules.

"In the cultural process, a cultural message is a cultural "private turbulence". The private turbulence is a cultural gene, an addictive soul-driven desire that forms a cultural unit. It can be as small as a desire, a message, or as large as a school of thought, a philosophy, a religion, a concept of a nation, or a program of governance. Private turbulence is a cultural gene of varying sizes that make up the evolution of organisms. Within an immaterial private turbulence gene structure, there are four features: culture on the left, civilization on the right, and in the middle of them is divided into up and down, strategy on the top, and tactics on the bottom. It is in the middle of this left, right, up and down that we swim. Any individual is again a private turbulence, limited in the cultural process by the upper and lower and left and right of the great private turbulence. It is as if each individual is living at the center of a private turbulent cultural conception, in the sense that the conception of "now" is under constant surveillance. We can imagine that the private turbulence is like a neuronal image, and each person's cultural turbulence is contained within the larger turbulence, and at any moment there is the possibility of hitting the boundaries and committing a sin. The behavioral movement of life is a constant hitting of walls, and we look at it with a philosophical dialectical point of view, it's all an innovation, an advancement. Private turbulence at any given moment is like what Dawkins describes as cultural "mamai," swimming in a cultural pond. When one senses a message, cultural private turbulence has been constituted."

Excerpted from: Classic passages from the writers of the gaming bible

Culture1

As the driving force of creation and doing, the means of communication of the subject, and the display of personality charisma, it is the people's identification of and adherence to the function, ethic, morality, and order, and the ways and means and norms of people's ethical life, and it implies a fierce cultural struggle. If the mainstream cultural position of a society is occupied by vulgar, vulgar and kitsch culture, it will inevitably result in the moral degradation of the society, value void, lack of faith, and the society will inevitably tend to collapse. Only by resisting the vulgar culture, promoting the culture of the public generation and developing our Marxist culture with the culture of the public generation can we give full play to the real function of Marxist culture in promoting the development of human beings.

Culture2

is the patterns of human activity and the symbolic structures that give these patterns their importance. Different people have different definitions of "culture", which usually includes writing, language, region, music, literature, painting, sculpture, theater, film and so on. It can be defined in two ways: firstly, in a broad sense, it refers to the sum of material and spiritual wealth created by human beings in the practice of social history. Secondly, in a narrow sense, it refers to the ideology of the society and its corresponding system and organization. In archaeology, "culture" refers to the remains and relics of the same historical period. The same tools, implements, manufacturing techniques, etc. characterize the same culture. Sometimes culture also refers to civilization.

The word "culture" in the West comes from the Latin word "Cultura", which mainly means something created by human beings. In ancient Greece and Rome, culture was understood as the quality and ability of people to participate in social and political life. In medieval Europe, culture was also replaced by terms such as "sacrifice". After the Renaissance and the Enlightenment, culture became a concept opposed to "barbarism" and "unenlightenment." [1] As a field of cultural studies, it is important to note that culture is a concept that has been used for many years. [1] Culture, as it is referred to in the field of cultural studies, is broadly defined as the larger culture. A more authoritative and systematically summarized definition comes from the book "Culture: An Examination of the Definition of a Concept" by Cropper and Clarkhorn, the famous American cultural experts cited in Encyclopaedia Britannica, which **** collects 166 definitions of culture (162 definitions in English), which are defined by the world's leading anthropologists, sociologists, psychoanalysts, philosophers, chemists, biologists, economists, geographers, and other scientists, biologists, economists, geographers, and political scientists. In the book, the two scholars divide the collection of 162 definitions of culture into seven groups, and after each group of definitions, they give an overview of the judgment, which guides the understanding of each group of definitions.

Culture - Functions Culture

Culture contributes to the development of human society. The development of culture has enabled man to change his environment to its advantage, as well as to change his behavior to adapt to the changed environmental conditions; before the creation of culture, man could only adapt to changes in his environment through biological evolution; culture has made the process of adaptation much faster. Example: when one type of prey becomes extinct, the tactic of hunters hunting another animal arises again.

Culture has facilitated the biological evolution of the human body. Example: the human brain is becoming more and more developed and the human hand is becoming more and more flexible.

Culture itself becomes a force in the human environment; it becomes as important as the environment in both scope and influence, and is itself in a dynamic process of evolution. In the history of the nomadic - sedentary - small town - city - nation -globalized economy, culture is present throughout this history of development: clothes, houses, tools, commodities, technology.

Culture - Development Cultural Causes

Cultural development is the result of the combined effect of many factors, and its main causes are generally the following three aspects:

Firstly, from the point of view of the relationship between human beings and nature, the contradictory movement between the subject and object is an important cause of cultural generation and development. As a result of natural evolution, human beings gradually separated from nature and began the contradiction between human beings and nature. In order to maintain their own survival, human beings must transform nature through labor, so that nature is marked by human beings, "humanization" for human awareness and transformation of the object, culture as a result of human transformation of nature, in this contradiction between the subject and the object of the movement came into being.

Secondly, from the point of view of the relationship between human beings, the contradictory movement within the human social system is the direct driving force of cultural development. Man is a social animal, human practice is social practice, people are relying on the power of society to realize the understanding and transformation of nature, creating a unique human culture. The most basic function of human society is production. The process of social production is also the process of human culture generation and development. Society is an organic aggregate of human beings. Various kinds of social relations are formed between people in social life, and the various kinds of social relations and the resulting social contradictions and their movements become the driving force for the development of human culture. Therefore, we can say in a certain sense that culture is the product of society.

On the other hand, from the point of view of culture itself, the exchanges and even conflicts between different cultural systems are also one of the important factors in the development of culture. After the formation of different types of cultural systems, always take the place of origin as the center of radioactive spread in all directions, forming a spatial cultural circle (or cultural area). In the process of cultural diffusion, different cultural systems are bound to meet and communicate with each other. The main manifestation of such exchanges is the peaceful spread of culture and the promotion of cultural development. However, exchanges between cultural systems are often accompanied by political, economic, religious, and even racial conflicts, and the ways of resolving these conflicts often take the form of violence, such as territorial expansion and forceful conquest. Especially in the early history of human cultural development, war often became a powerful means of cultural expansion.

Methods

There are many different ways in which culture develops, the most basic of which is the self-renewal of cultural systems. Another form of cultural development is cultural change. Cultural change can take many forms. One is the sudden interruption of cultural development. Cultural change also includes the displacement of cultures, whereby a cultural element, which had little influence in its place of origin, is widely disseminated in a foreign country and even becomes the dominant cultural characteristic.

Cultural stagnation is a special form of cultural development. Culture does not move forward naturally after it is created; if the conditions for cultural development are not present, cultural development may stagnate or even regress. Stagnation of cultural development is not the same as the demise of culture, but is only a phenomenon, or a stage of development, in the process of cultural development. Cultural stagnation can be caused either by the fact that the relationship between human beings and nature is in a state of simple equilibrium, with cultural development losing its driving force; or by the self-enclosure of the cultural system, which segregates the channels of cultural dialogue and makes it impossible for exchanges to take place between the cultural systems; or by the unequal dialogue between the cultural systems, with foreign cultures in a position of strength taking advantage of their political and economic superiority to suppress the development of indigenous cultural development, bringing the development of indigenous culture to a standstill. [2]

Culture - Classification Institutional Culture

Culture is a social phenomenon, a product of people's creativity over time. At the same time is a historical phenomenon, is the accumulation of social history. Culture refers to the history, geography, customs, traditions, lifestyles, literature and art, behavioral norms, ways of thinking, values, etc. of a country or nation.

On the classification of culture H. H. Stern (1992: 208) divides culture into two concepts, broad and narrow, according to the structure and scope of culture.

Broadly speaking, culture is culture with a big C, and narrowly speaking, culture with a small c. Broadly speaking, culture refers to the sum of material and spiritual wealth created by human beings in the course of social and historical development.

It includes material culture, institutional culture and psychological culture.

Material culture refers to all kinds of material civilization created by human beings, including means of transportation, clothing, daily necessities, etc., which is a kind of visible and explicit culture;

Institutional culture and psychological culture refer to the system of life, the family system, the social system, as well as the way of thinking, religious beliefs, and aesthetic taste, which belong to the invisible and implicit culture. Including literature, philosophy, politics and other aspects. Culture in the narrow sense refers to people's general social habits, such as food, clothing, housing, customs, lifestyle, behavioral norms and so on.

Hammerly divided culture into information culture, behavioral culture and achievement culture.

Information culture refers to the knowledge about society, geography, history, and so on, which is generally acquired by the educated native speakers; behavioral culture refers to the way of life, actual behavior, attitudes, and values of a person, which is the most important factor for successful communication; and achievement culture refers to the achievements in art and literature, which is the traditional concept of culture.

The internal structure of culture includes the following levels: physical culture, institutional culture, behavioral culture, and mental culture.

Some anthropologists divide culture into three levels:

First, highculture, which includes philosophy, literature, art, religion, etc.

Second, popularculture, which refers to customs, rituals, and lifestyles including food, clothing, housing, transportation, and all aspects of interpersonal relationships;

Third, deepculture, which refers to the way of life, including food, clothing, housing, and transportation.

Third, deepculture, which refers to the definition of beauty and ugliness of values, time orientation, pace of life, problem-solving styles, and personal roles related to gender, class, occupation, and kinship.

High culture and popular culture are both rooted in deep culture, and a concept of deep culture is reflected in popular culture as a custom or way of life, and in high culture as an art form or literary theme.

Culture

Different disciplines have different understandings of culture.

Culture is interpreted from a philosophical point of view as essentially an expression of philosophical ideas. Because of the time and place of philosophy thus determines the different styles of culture. Generally speaking, changes in philosophical thought lead to changes in social systems, which are accompanied by the suppression of old cultures and the rise of new ones.

From an existentialist point of view, culture is a description of the way a person or a group of people exists. People exist in nature as well as in history and time; time is an important platform for a person or a group of people to exist in nature; society, state and nation (family) is another important platform for a person or a group of people to exist in history and time; culture refers to the ways of speaking or expressing, interacting or behaving, and being aware of or perceiving in the process of such existence. Culture is not only used to describe the outward behavior of a group of people; culture especially includes the psychic awareness and way of perception of the human self as an individual. A way of dialoging and observing one's self as one returns to one's inner world.

Functionalist school of thought, culture includes both material and spiritual aspects, whether it is a concrete material phenomena, such as canes, tools, utensils, etc., or abstract social phenomena, such as customs and habits, ideology, social institutions, etc., have the role of meeting the needs of the actual life of human beings.

The core of culture is its symbolic system, such as writing. Each writing system has a corresponding cognitive psychology.

Culture - Characteristics

First of all culture is ****owned, it is a set of ****owned concepts, values, and codes of behavior, it is the ****same standard that makes the individual's ability to behave acceptable to the collective. Culture and society are closely related; there can be no culture without society, but there are also societies without culture. Culture is also inconsistent within the same society. For example, the culture of men differs from the culture of women in any society. In addition, there are subcultural differences between different ages, occupations, classes, and so on.

Culture is learned, not innately possessed through heredity. The way in which physiology is satisfied is culturally determined, and each culture determines how those needs are met. From this perspective, non-human primates are also capable of a variety of cultural behaviors, but these cultural behaviors are only unidirectional cultural manifestations such as eating termites in the manner of alert cries. This only seems trivial compared to the vast and complex system of cultural symbols in human society.

Chinese dragon culture

In Chinese culture, the dragon has an important position and influence. From the Neolithic Age, more than 7,000 years ago, when the ancestors worshipped the primitive dragon totem, to the present day, people still use idioms or allusions with the word "dragon" to describe the beautiful things in life. For thousands of years, the dragon has permeated all aspects of Chinese society, becoming a kind of cultural cohesion and accumulation. The dragon has become the symbol of China, the symbol of the Chinese nation and the symbol of Chinese culture. For every descendant of the Yellow Emperor, the image of the dragon is a symbol, a mood, a flesh and blood emotion! "Children and grandchildren of the dragon", "descendants of the dragon" these titles, often make us excited, energized, proud. Dragon culture in addition to the spread of inheritance in the Chinese land, but also by the overseas Chinese to the world, in the world's Chinese settlements or Chinatown, the most and the most striking ornaments are still dragons. As a result, the "heir to the dragon" and the "land of the dragon" have gained worldwide recognition. As the heir of the dragon, one cannot be ignorant of the Chinese dragon culture. Without understanding the dragon culture, it is impossible to understand the ancient Chinese civilization. What is the original form of the dragon? How was the concept of dragon formed? How did its image and cultural meaning develop and change? What is the influence of the dragon in Chinese culture? These questions have been bothering people in different ways since ancient times, and have yet to be fully resolved, giving people a sense of confusion. Here, we will trace the trail of the dragon, enter the ancient history and the world of the dragon, to understand and explore the mystery of the dragon.

Cultural Research

Chinese and foreign scholars have put forward a lot of cultural research methods, which can be roughly divided into two categories:

Qualitative Methods Qualitative research methods are mainly built on the basis of the possession of cultural expression forms of analysis and processing, this method is the oldest research method, but also the most commonly used methods;

Quantitative Research Methods On the basis of qualitative research methods, the analysis and processing of qualitative research methods can be divided into two categories:

Qualitative Research Methods On the basis of the qualitative research method, the qualitative research further transformed into figures, with the help of modern statistics and the development of computer technology, analysis and processing, and draw conclusions. This is a new research method that has emerged in the cultural sector since the 1980s. However, this research method has been difficult to understand and support in the East. Quantitative research on Chinese culture began in 2003, and in 2004, the first Chinese literature dedicated to culture quantification was published in the Chinese Corporate Culture Yearbook (2004) Volume. The China Corporate Culture Measurement Center, which specializes in quantitative research on corporate culture, was also established, the first training course on quantitative management of corporate culture was held to teach quantitative cultural research methods, and the first set of China Corporate Culture Measurement System (CMS) began to be put into practical use in electric power, mobile and other enterprises.

It is worth noting that all the above methods belong to the category of research methods. The development of methods to really promote the practical application of culture is even slower, until 2005, with the release of "corporate culture system management theory and technology", practical corporate culture practice methods began to appear in China, filling the double gap between theory and market demand.

Culture - the essence

Culture is the main purpose of the sustainable and coordinated development of each configuration rule, the realization of the configuration rules for each production factor configuration rules. Culture is guided by the theoretical basis, through adjusting and controlling the systematicity of the rules for the allocation of the factors of production in theory, the identity of concepts, the continuity of ideas, the originality of emotions, the compatibility of mathematical logic, the harmony of natural laws, and the consistency of semantic logic, in order to plan the social goals, unify the will of the society, harmonize the behavior of the society, merge the concepts of the society, concentrate the wisdom of the society, and unite the power of the society, so as to achieve the value of wealth and to achieve the goal of social development. The purpose is to plan social goals, unify social will, harmonize social behavior, integrate social concepts, concentrate social wisdom, and unite social forces in order to increase the value of wealth. The value-added amount generated by the indirect effect of the cultural field on wealth is usually distributed in accordance with the contents required by various cultural theories and religious concepts (such as the relief of the rich and the powerful for the poor and the weak, and the tolerance for the mistakes of others, etc., which are generally advocated by religious beliefs), which actually realizes the third distribution of the new social wealth.

The objective role of culture is to regulate and control all economic and political rules, including the rules of written expression of all rules - words, the rules of oral expression of all rules - language, the rules of communication of all rules through the media (e.g. painting, poetry, etc.), and the rules of the world. Communication symbols (such as painting, poetry, music, dance, drama, novels, etc.) rules of expression - art; rules of social behavior rules of constraints - social sciences; rules of natural behavior rules of constraints - natural sciences; social interest relations adjustment rules - natural sciences; the objective role of the rules is to adjust and control all the economic and political rules. -natural sciences; binding rules for the rules of adjustment of social interest relations - ethics and religious beliefs; binding rules for the behavior of the subject - law; and so on.

Culture is the product of the long-term accumulation of the whole nation or the whole mankind, the political rules of different classes, different nationalities, different social groups continue to develop collision, conflict, infiltration, fusion, and gradually abstract and sublimation of a series of new rules, which are able to make a high degree of identity, coordination, continuity, and convenience between various political rules. Therefore, the value connotation of culture usually reflects the requirements of the interests of the whole nation or the whole mankind, and the cultural behavior has the greatest global, long-term and high-value level characteristics relative to the political behavior. It is the implementation of the control of the acceleration of the development of each factor of production, that is, "acceleration control".

Likewise, the change of all the rules of the rules will affect the proportion of the distribution of interests between people of different social classes, different industries, different genders, different nationalities, different ages, different cultural levels, different regions at a deeper level, and determine and restrict the reality and development direction of the various contradictions of the society at a deeper level, and also affect the long-term interests and immediate interests, localized interests, and the development direction of the whole society at a deeper level. Long-term interests and immediate interests, local interests and overall interests, low-level material interests and high-level spiritual interests and other aspects of the relationship, it can be more far-reaching indirectly change the rate of growth of social wealth, and therefore is also a kind of broad social production field.

Sports culture

There are many claims about the emergence and development of sports culture, but the more concentrated ones are as follows, which include:

1. The theory of the origin of labor: In general, human culture is created through the thinking of human beings' own hands and brains. Early human beings learned to run, jump and other skills in survival, and in the pursuit of prey and other activities, the development of speed, endurance, strength, sensitivity and other physical qualities. Sports at this time are distinctly reflected in the training of various abilities with the direct purpose of survival.

2. Military origin theory: this is due to the conflict between individuals for the hunting of prey and later developed into an armed conflict between tribes, the tribes in order to improve their own strength to carry out organized physical training. It also included skills such as wrestling, darts, and clubs.

3. The theory of the origin of games: this is when primitive people, after obtaining abundant prey, especially when the harvest, gathered together to celebrate with games and dances, which also shows that sports evolved in the form of running, jumping, throwing and other forms of labor, and expressed their inner joy with singing and dancing.

4. Religious origin theory: in the late primitive society, due to the low level of productivity, and by the four seasons and the environment, the primitive people in order to help the natural beneficence, sacrifices to heaven and earth and the formation of the primitive religious activities, and to sports situation to help worship.

5. The theory of the origin of education: the development of productive labor as well as the sports skills and techniques evolved in military and games were passed on to the future generations in the form of labor education. Both the development of a variety of skills and physical qualities mentioned above, and gradually detached from the animal wildness, evolved in the direction of human nature, the formation of sports life with cultural connotations.

In summary, the emergence of sports culture is the result of the evolution of the above factors in the process of human beings from animal wildness to human nature. That is to say, sports culture is the process of human beings in the process of transforming themselves from animal instincts into conscious behavior human nature, it is the original wildness, aggressiveness through labor and games, education, and a reasonable way of competition gradually formed a unique cultural phenomenon of human society, that is, sports culture. [3]

Culture

Culture is a reflection of human life and the crystallization of its activities. Any kind of culture is the embodiment of the unique style of existence formed by a certain human group through the choice of survival. Grassland culture of regional, national, decided in its formation, development of the long historical process, in its exchange with the Chinese culture and even the world culture, in its continuous collision with other cultures, integration and the realization of its own construction, showing its unique qualities and rich connotation. The main signs are three.

The prairie culture arises in the grassland clan, tribal unique herd economic form, this is the prairie culture is different from the "big river culture" breeding agricultural civilization and fishing and hunting civilization of the cultural basis, but also the formation of civilization qualities. Any kind of culture and civilization must be rooted in a certain economic form and mode of production. Grassland culture, as one of the important carriers of civilization in human society, is mainly based on the economic foundation of "pastoral civilization", especially the way of life dominated by herding. This herd form, the earliest with the grassland people's clan tribal synchronization and coordinated development, therefore, this way of life has different from the central farming culture and other cultural patterns of distinctive features.

One is the group nature. In the almost all-natural ecological environment, whether it is hunting or grazing, in order to overcome all kinds of natural disasters in order to obtain greater benefits, it is necessary to rely on the strength of the group, to take the natural way of herd husbandry, in order to realize the reproduction of the herd and the continuity of the mode of production. In contrast, it is difficult to form a substantial group in the agrarian way of survival of the one-family, subsistence economy of the Central Plains culture. Second, mobility. The survival of the herd is not only due to the nomadic production method of living by water and grass, but also due to the need for conquest. Third, the martial spirit. Hunting and herding way of life has shaped the unique character of the grassland people, the hard living conditions of the grassland cast their tough physique and martial spirit. According to the "history of the world conqueror" records, for the prairie people, hunting "not only to hunt beasts, but also to get used to hunting exercise, familiar with the saber and hard work".

From an archaeological point of view, the most important symbol of the formation of grassland culture, is the northern grassland "fine stoneware culture". The iconic cultural carrier of the grassland culture "fine stoneware culture", as early as the 1930s has been put forward, and first in the Hulunbeier Grassland name. Fine stoneware culture accompanied the grassland culture from the late Paleolithic period until the early Iron Age. Fine stone tool culture is the most original early culture in the grassland culture. This kind of fine stone tools made by a combination of pressing, stripping, faceting and grinding, reflecting the level of production development in the northern steppe area, with the typical characteristics of the steppe people's mode of production. With the steppe fine stoneware culture **** another archaeological phenomenon is the development of bone horns. According to archaeological discoveries, and fine stoneware *** survival of the site is often used with animal bones and teeth, as well as fish bones, mussels and animal horns made of tools and a large number of decorative items. The discovery of these fine stone tools, marking the grassland primitive human began to say goodbye to savagery towards civilization, also marks the beginning of the formation of grassland culture.

Another sign of the formation of grassland civilization is that it relies on the main cultural carriers, in the conceptual form of "nature-based" humanistic spirit. This humanistic spirit is determined by its mode of existence and mode of production. Historically, any kind of culture must rely on natural resources, but the grassland culture in this regard has its uniqueness, originality and coordination. [4]
