Culture is term used by social scientists for away of life. Every human society has a culture. Culture includes a society’s arts, beliefs, institution, inventions, language, technology, and values. A culture produces similar behavior and thought among most people in a particular society. To learn about a culture, one may ask such question as these: What language do the people speak? What do the people of the society wear? How do they govern themselves? How do they judge right from wrong?

People are not born with any knowledge of a culture. They generally learn a culture by growing up in a particular society. They learn mainly through the use of language, especially by talking and listening to other members of the society. They also learn by watching and imitating various behaviors in the society. The process by which

people especially children learn their society’s culture is called enculturation. Through enculturation, a culture is share with member of a society and passed from one generation to the next. Enculturation unifies people of a society by providing them with common experiences. The term culture has been defined in many ways. It often is used in a narrow sense to refer to actives in such fields as art, literature, and music. In that sense, a cultured person I someone who has knowledge of and appreciation for the fine arts but, under the broader definition used by social scientists, culture includes all areas of life, and all human beings have a culture.

Culture and society. Some societies such as those of Tibetans in Tibet and various people of the Pacific Islands have traditionally been associated with a single culture. Other societies such as those of the United States and Canada are multicultural societies. They include many distinct cultures. People of one culture who move to a country where another culture dominates may give up their old ways and become part of the dominant culture. The process by which they do this is called assimilation. Through assimilation, a minority group  eventually disappears because its member lose the cultural characteristics that set them apart in a multicultural society, however, assimilation does not always occur.

Every culture change. But all parts of a culture do not change at the same time. For example , science and technology may sometimes change so rapidly hat they lessen the importance of customs, ideas, and other nonmaterial parts of a culture. At other times, changes in ideas and social systems may occur before changes in technology. The failure of certain parts of a culture to keep up with other, related parts is referred to as cultural lag. A number of factors may cause a culture to change. The two main ones are(1) contact with other cultures and (2) invention.

As a result, cultural traits and patterns tend to spread from the society in which they in what is now Mexico thousand of years ago and eventually spread throughout the world.

Diffusion can occur without firsthand contact between cultures. Products or patterns may move from group A to group C through group B without any contact between group A and group C. To day, diffusion is rapid and widespread because many culture of the world are linked through advanced means of transportation and communication and communication.

When two cultures have continuous, firsthand contact with each other, the exchange of cultural traits is called acculturation. Acculturation has often occurred when one culture has colonized or conquered another or as a result of trade. In addition to adopting each other’s traits, the two cultures may blend traits. For example, if the people of the cultures speak different languages, they may develop a mixed language called pidgin in order to communicate. The cultures may also exchange or blend such traits as clothing, dances, music, recipes, and tools. Through acculturation, parts of the culture of one or both groups change, but the groups remain distinct. In this way, acculturation differs from assimilation. Through assimilation, one group becomes part of another group and loses its separate identity.

  

Inventions have led to many changes in a culture. The invention of agriculture, for example, made it possible for people to settle in farm villages. Their values and social organization changed. They placed importance on using land and animals to produce crops. They began to build permanent housing. They developed systems of irrigation and a number of tools
