THE IDEA OF CULTURE, SOCIAL IDENTITY AND MYTHOLOGY
Abstract
The present article is primarily devoted to the issue of the idea of culture as a factor that helps to create a symbolic level of specific form of the identity. In the first level, we are dealing with different definitions of the term culture. In the second level, we are talking about mythology as an aspect, which also forms a kind of cultural and political context. In the second level then we are talking about mythology as the aspects which also shapes the social and political identity. Social identity helps shape cultural patterns that create an overall social identity. Based on social identity, the idea is also built up, which is linked to the projection of the individual's qualities into the society. Throughout the all article we also emphasize the need of demythologized political, social and religious domains. Mythology is being understood as a source of potential conflict. Only after demythologization of politics reality, we can talk about trying to seize politics and society in such a way which will not create a conflict.
