Culture

Culture (Latin: cultura, lit. "cultivation"[1]) is a modern concept based on a term first used in classical antiquity by the Roman orator Cicero: "cultura animi" (cultivation of the soul). This non-agricultural use of the term "culture" re-appeared in modern Europe in the 17th century referring to the betterment or refinement of individuals, especially through education. During the 18th and 19th century it came to refer more frequently to the common reference points of whole peoples, and discussion of the term was often connected to national aspirations or ideals. In the 20th century, "culture" emerged as a central concept in anthropology, encompassing the range of human phenomena that cannot be directly attributed to genetic inheritance. the evolved human capacity to classify and represent experiences with symbols, and to act imaginatively and creatively; andthe distinct ways that people, who live differently, classified and represented their experiences, and acted creatively.[2]

Culture Par abus de langage, le mot « culture » est employé pour désigner presque exclusivement l'offre de pratiques et de services culturels dans les sociétés modernes, et en particulier dans le domaine des arts et des lettres. Définitions[modifier | modifier le code] La culture est, selon le sociologue québécois Guy Rocher, « un ensemble lié de manières de penser, de sentir et d'agir plus ou moins formalisées qui, étant apprises et partagées par une pluralité de personnes, servent, d'une manière à la fois objective et symbolique, à constituer ces personnes en une collectivité particulière et distincte » (Guy Rocher, 1969, 88). Étymologie[modifier | modifier le code] Le terme latin cultura définit l’action de cultiver la terre au sens premier puis celle de cultiver l'esprit, l'âme au sens figuré (Dictionnaire Gaffiot).

Trust (social sciences) In a social context, trust has several connotations.[1] Definitions of trust[2][3] typically refer to a situation characterised by the following aspects: One party (trustor) is willing to rely on the actions of another party (trustee); the situation is directed to the future. In addition, the trustor (voluntarily or forcedly) abandons control over the actions performed by the trustee. As a consequence, the trustor is uncertain about the outcome of the other's actions; they can only develop and evaluate expectations. The uncertainty involves the risk of failure or harm to the trustor if the trustee will not behave as desired. Trust can be attributed to relationships between people. Conceptually, trust is also attributable to relationships within and between social groups (families, friends, communities, organisations, companies, nations etc.). When it comes to the relationship between people and technology, the attribution of trust is a matter of dispute.
