Culture - Debates.

The Debate on Culture, Subculture, and Counter-Culture:


  1. How does culture shape our identity and worldview?

  2. To what extent do cultural norms and values influence 

behavior in different societies?

  1. Discuss how globalization has impacted cultural 

diversity. Has it led to cultural homogenization or 

greater appreciation for cultural differences?


Subculture:


  1. What role do subcultures play in expressing 

individuality and identity in a larger society?

  1. How do subcultures like goth, hip-hop, or skater 

communities challenge or reinforce mainstream 

cultural values?

  1. Can subcultures exist without being commodified 

by mainstream society? Discuss with examples.


Counterculture:


  1. How do countercultures, such as the 1960s hippie 

movement, seek to challenge and change dominant 

social norms?

  1. Are modern countercultures, such as environmental 

or anti-consumerist movements, as influential as past 

ones?

  1. What role do technology and social media play in the 

formation and spread of countercultures today?
