Cultural maturity and lifelong education in the Information Society

Abstract

In anthropology dominates the culture study as a «thing», objective culture. From pedagogy, the culture is an intrasubjective process of culture incorporation and participative incorporation to the culture. From this second aspect, the culture is a permanent vital need. The constant self-feeding is one of the properties that are useful to define the process quality, consequently the people with higher cultural quality maintain more active the process. The pedagogical perspective, the permanent state of activity inside the real subject concept, the empiric subject, is the perspective situated with more precision in the core of the concept. The lifelong education concept is not a complement of the education concept, but is its main character. The lifelong education defines the biologic necessity of culture for human species. Hence, the importance of the concept of cultural maturity. That maturity is extended to all culture threads: the technical objects utilization, the cultural imaginarium, discourses, the practices and scenarios.
