Where there is culture, there is cultural philosophy.
"A barbarian is one who believes in the existence of barbarism," Lévi-Strauss said.
How not to regard cultures different from your own as faceless barbarism?
This is a common issue for mankind in the post-Tower of Babel era!
Culture is a network that limits and supports us. We breathe, think and act within it, and collide and encounter different cultures.
In a certain sense, we can only understand everything in the culture we are in. Culture seems to be a kind of constraint, restricting the scope of our activities; but if culture is taken away from us, human beings will have no foothold at all. , in fact, it is culture that gives us the power to face the world. How to coexist with other cultures has also become a key indicator of "whether one is literate".
Philosophy is the reflection on all things. The object we want to reflect on here is "culture" and what culture covers: language, art, labor, religion and history.
When human history develops from a state of nature to a state of civilization, is it a fall or an improvement? What is the difference between human language and animal language? Can words convey our thoughts, or are they just deceptions? Does art belong only to a few talented artists, or can it also belong to the general public? Is labor the realization of human freedom, or is it suffering and alienation? Does technological progress liberate human labor, or make humans further alienated from labor? Is religion the ultimate truth of human beliefs, or is it their collective hallucination?
Philosophical thinking about culture will never stop; wherever there is culture, there is cultural philosophy!
