Assumption 10: Our Culture Is Created in Networks
摘要
Those who are in a relationship with each other develop elements of their own culture in their interaction. We speak here of microculture. For this, only three arguments should be mentioned: (1) Through structuration, people are separated from each other. Only those who are at the same place at the same time have the chance to come into contact with each other or not. (2) By interacting with each other, microcultures are created, which are negotiated within the relationship. These microcultures are nevertheless sorted according to different types of situations. Each type of situation offers different possibilities for the application of negotiated cultural elements. That is, only cultural elements that fit the genre of the situation are permissible. (3) Even if one does not maintain a regular relationship, one is connected with those present at the same place at the same time through super weak relationships.
