What's the danger of a single story? by, Marcos Lozada.

  Some people believe that on only one story there is no danger over people, societies or cultures. From my point of view that is no like that.

  In addition, I believe and say that each story is different and depends on who tell the story. If the person is one that is always assaulting and only believes that his society and culture are the only ones with power and importance, the other one that listen to this story, if is not from this society, will feel kind of offended and with  bad humour. But if the one that tells the story is a good person, that respects and is not assaulting all the time to other societies and cultures, the one who hears it will be happy and cheerfull about the story he/she is hearing.

  To conclude, from my point of view, the danger of a single story depends on how the story is told and the way it is told. Furthermore, each story has a power and the one that writes the story is the one that has the power.  

 

Communication,Culture and Society

Communication

 Communication is the activity of conveying information through the exchange of thoughts, messages, or information, as by speech, visuals, signals, writing, or behavior. 

Culture

  Culture is a modern concept based on a term first used in classical antiquity by the Roman orator, Cicero: "cultura animi". The term "culture" appeared first in its current sense in Europe in the 18th and 19th centuries, to connote a process of cultivation or improvement, as in agriculture or horticulture. In the 19th century, the term developed to refer first to the betterment or refinement of the individual, especially through education, and then to the fulfillment of national aspirations or ideals. In the mid-19th century, some scientists used the term "culture" to refer to a universal human capacity. For the German nonpositivist sociologist Georg Simmel, culture referred to "the cultivation of individuals through the agency of external forms which have been objectified in the course of history".

Society

  A society, or a human society, is a group of people related to each other through persistent relations, or a large social grouping sharing the same geographical or virtual territory, subject to the same political authority and dominant cultural expectations. Human societies are characterized by patterns of relationships (social relations) between individuals who share a distinctive culture and institutions; a given society may be described as the sum total of such relationships among its constituent members. In the social sciences, a larger society often evinces stratification and/or dominance patterns in subgroups.
