About the Book
In The Sociology of Culture, Boris Erasov, a Soviet culturologist, and Yogendra Singh, an Indian sociologist, collaborate to explore the rapidly growing scientific discipline of culture. This work examines culture not just as a subject of liberal arts but as an essential component of social regulation and development.
The book answers key questions regarding culture’s structure and meaning, its role in society, and what drives cultural changes. It delves into the relationship between Eastern and Western cultures, questioning whether the cultural heritage of the East holds relevance today. The text also explores trends in the modernization of cultures in newly-independent countries and offers insights into how one can learn to appreciate and understand the values, style, and tenor of other cultures.
A significant part of the book is dedicated to using the knowledge from sociology of culture to improve the global climate, defuse regional conflicts, and promote a broader understanding of cultural interconnections.
