Description

Explore the complex tension between civilization and tribalism in The Culture Cult by Routledge. This book provides an acerbic critique of the modern desire to retreat from civilized society. It examines the intellectual history of those who romanticize tribal life, tracing ideas from Rousseau and the concept of the Noble Savage to modern defenders of ethnicity like Isaiah Berlin and Karl Polanyi. Readers will encounter a deep analysis of the divide between culture and civilization. The text weighs the romanticized virtues of tribalism against the defense of modern values and civil society championed by thinkers such as Karl Popper, Michael Polanyi, and Ernest Gellner. This collection of essays investigates the fundamental differences between closed and open societies. Whether you are studying anthropology, sociology, or political philosophy, this work offers a rigorous look at how society views its own progress. It challenges readers to think about what it means to live in an open society versus a closed one, making it a significant addition to any collection of social science literature.
