Chronicles of Culture, Communication, and Media

Abstract

This paper charts the development of cultural theory over time as it permeates Western Hemisphere civilization. Briefly stated, cultural theory takes into account historical events involving culture, ideology, communication, and media that have impact on the human condition, such as the case when power structures, for example, spark a conversation about people's emancipation in an effort to achieve social balance. Therefore, it is important to have a thorough awareness of the ideological frameworks and symbolisms in a certain culture in order to comprehend facets of identity and cultural amelioration.Finally, cultural theory espouses a thorough understanding of the human condition that is intertwined with the histories of people's ordinary lives as societies change over time. Through the lessons it has acquired over human history, civilization has become stale. With every story told, it perpetually reshapes the fields of thought, allowing nations and people to freely express the complexities of human ingenuity.
