Why do cultures change ?
The challenges of globalization

Résumé

We are always in need of definitions whenever we want to explore why cultures
change. We are pressed to come up with answers as to what culture might be and how the idea
of culture might fit into a nutshell. The general applicability of the answer we struggle to
devise invites theoretical formulas and abstraction from specific historical developments. It
also, as a result, cautions us to choose fields from which to cull situations and conflicts that
may help deliver the concepts we want to grasp, and invites to understand the theory of
culture as shaped by how events unfold, and how society moves along.
