THE AGE OF CULTURE - WHY, WHAT, AND HOW?
Journal Title: Духовність особистості: методологія, теорія і практика - Year 2019, Vol 2, Issue 89
Abstract
Entering a cultural age is imperative if humanity is to come to grips with the complex and difficult problems encountered in the present age of economics, most notably climate change, global warming, the environmental crisis, growing shortages of natural resources and basic foodstuffs, vast disparities in income and wealth, conflicts between different genders, races, religions, countries, cultures, and civilizations, and especially the tendency to treat economics as “the whole” and everything else as a “part of the whole.” The key to dealing with these and other problems lies in adopting a holistic perception of culture and cultures and capitalizing on the rich legacy of insights, ideas, and ideals provided by generations of cultural scholars. Through this process, it is possible to piece together a portrait of the age of culture based on developing culture and cultures in breadth and depth, achieving balanced and harmonious relationships between the component parts of culture and cultures, situating culture and cultures effectively in the natural, historical, and global environment, living a cultural life, and achieving more peace, harmony, happiness, sustainability, spirituality, and well- being in life and the world. People in the arts, humanities, sciences, and education, governments, and the general public have proactive and seminal roles to play in bringing the age of culture into existence and enabling it to flourish in the years, decades, and centuries ahead.
