Civilization versus Culture in the Light of Electronic Networking

K. Pstružina

Keywords: Civilization, Culture, Networking, Philosophy

By Civilization I mean all form improvement of our everydays life. Civilization is a growth of safety and dignity of man. Civilization means that mankind dispose by the tools for better comfort and familiarity of enviroment. On the contrary, culture is a sorrow for a soul. It is a fear about a level of spiritual life, culture is disquietness, alarmation from confortable life. Culture needs a tangled structure of emotion and it is culture that can help to the process of development of emotion. I think we need both, civilization and culture and we need both in very balance measure.
The task of philosophers working on electronic networks are both to prevent of abuse of electronic networking and to create coherent culture where everybody is contributors with his or her own opinion and with respect to the opinion of another.
