Culture Is A System Of Meaningful Symbols: Analysis
[ send me this paper ]
6 pages in length. Spradley's understanding of and subsequent definition for the concept of culture crosses all boundaries whereby people of a given community share their collective existence. The extent to which the presence of mores, norms and customs comprise the fundamental components of cultural construct is both grand and far-reaching; that Spradley (1979) has termed culture as a system of meaningful symbols speaks to a communal system of association that is "learned, revised, maintained, and defined in the context of people interacting" (Spradley, 1979). Applying this understanding to the two articles and one book illustrates just how vital cultural connection is to individuals and entire societies alike. Bibliography lists 7 sources.

David Lowenthal's "The Heritage Crusade And The Spoils Of History"
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. David Lowenthal's primary objective in "The Heritage Crusade and the Spoils of History" is to illustrate the inherent separation, as well as the inextricable cohesion, of heritage, history and contemporary society. The author strives to enlighten his readers to the inadequacies of conventional thought pertaining to heritage, noting that while heritage is, indeed, interwoven with history, it is also reinvented throughout modern-day society by way of new icons, such as Disney World and other pertinent symbols of the twentieth century.

David Miller's On Nationality
[ send me this paper ]
A 6 page paper discussing Miller's primary premise in this book, which is that nationality provides a valid frame of reference for individuals. Arguments against Miller's statements can be found in the reading of nearly every paragraph of the book, but none hold up under great scrutiny. The only conclusion that can be made with expectation of being valid is that Miller is correct in his position. The paper discusses US reaction to the attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941 and the likelihood of Europe achieving the state of the European nation. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

Deep Ecology Versus Social Ecology
[ send me this paper ]
10 pages in length. Murray Bookchin and Bill Devall reside at opposite ends of the spectrum when it comes to the fundamental nature of ecological issues; while Bookchin supports the essence of social ecology, Devall espouses the benefits of its opposing counterpart, deep ecology. The two men have agreed to meet on this spring day within the wide, open spaces of the city park in order to debate the merits of each stance. Clearly, their objective is not to draw each other to the opposing side, but rather it is meant as a means by which to establish their individual positions so that no point is left unaddressed or question left unanswered. Bibliography lists 7 sources.
