Description

It is difficult for Zygmunt Bauman to accept the prevailing view that sees culture as a mere phenomenon, "something like the icing on the cake," which attacks the "real" core of social life, the "structure." Instead, he perceives structure as a sediment of culture, as a solidification of the products of cultural activity.

Of course, this activity, the cultural act, never starts from scratch and is never completely free, as it depends on a given factor, individuals with their natural characteristics. Thus, culture is always the management of the existing.

This is why the question regarding the autonomy of the supposed "cultural" (super)structure is misplaced. However, the author argues elsewhere: "Autonomous from what? Culture is a form of activity, a way of acting..." [Excerpt from the text on the back cover of the edition]
