Prior to go into depth of the subject we need to
review and comprehend each word and expression of
the subject. Meanwhile we need to also classify some
of them in order to understand their limits and
borders in terms of what is the reality and how good
looks like.
So we start with “Culture” and in order to
understand what it (really) means we need to give it a
definition. Word Culture is noun and it is defined in the
dictionary as “the ideas, customs, and social behavior
of a particular people or society”.
So culture contains ideas, customs and behavior, it
might not be limited to, however we will concentrate on
them as they perfectly suits our subject.
Explaining “Social Behavior”
We will start our analysis from social behavior as
this is sourced from customs and ideas, But
before we move to social behavior we need to
understand what is behavior for one and then how
it becomes social.
So we need to define behavior first. Dictionary
defines it as “the way in which one acts or conducts
himself/herself, especially towards others”.
Explaining “Towards Others”
As the definition contains “towards others” it is clear
that behavior is social act and person's behavior
impacts others in one way or another.
