The Relativistic Basis of Understanding

Claes Gustafsson

Chapter 4 in The Production of Seriousness, 2012, pp 99-125 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The word culture stands for something that is non-nature; that is in one way or another artificial, an artefact. But what does it mean, actually? Is it merely a question of naming, a totemic game which offers the feeling of a message, without any substance? What differentiates ‘culture’ from ‘nature’?
