• Description:
  With reference to Manuel Castells, I agrue that the value of theory stems, above all, from its abilityprovoke and structure empirical research – in other words, theory is communicated via theanalysis of practices. In this book, The Information Age, Castells wrote that the bast chance forunderstanding socjety would be linked to a more patient approach to the gatherring of informationand the building of theories. The application of theory is of an iterative nature, and thus„sensitizing” concepta aries. I share a view which James Clifford ezpressed in his 1988 book, ThePredicament of Culture: the study of culture oscillates beteen the local and global perspective,constantly re-contextualizing its subject. Therefore, the main goal of cultural researchers shouldbe to create space for the future of cultures and to identify any threats thereto. I will attempt toshow that, in the realm of cultural dynamics, it is possible to „invent” a borader system of theoriesand concepts. The predicament with culture is actually immanent in the meaning of culture.
