Culture dictates our conduct based on the value system that it
promotes. Culture makes us who we are and has direct impact on how
we behave because it defines, promotes and values conducts which we
are all keen to pursue. The marks of today's prevailing culture
should be viewed as an unprecedented threat faced by mankind
because of the structured persuasion tools innate to the system and
create limitless possibilities of realities that enable man to
reject traditions and move from one vanguard to another in pursue
of something that is not real. Culture can be designed by those
that control the institutions of the society, taking the individual
away from the collective sense of belonging to a community. On the
one side this creates an anomic state of public mind and on the
other side it creates fragmented communities that lead to
disintegrated service of government and decision-making.The
Knowledge of Culture and the Culture of Knowledge explores the
construct of information and information culture and its
relationship to the prevailing culture. The author provides an
analysis of the relationship of media to the core constructs in the
book by explaining why they have been put together to form one
single idea. The book focuses on a case study of how media is used
to construct realities as it is in the case of economic crisis in
order to draw implications for society as a whole.
