The information technology and the culture.

People think that the technology is the source of power, the power and new opportunities. However culture and more precisely incorporeal i.e. spiritual culture, he is performing rather limiting, stabilizing functions and in a way he has conservative character. The technology is encouraging to the conquest and changing world according to desires.

Information technology and communications influence for transforming the living conditions of people. The technology is a synonym of power and fulfilled possibilities. However a space is something outside what he is filling apart from the man. Differently he is with the culture. The culture is invisible world, with set of symbols, complicated relations, norms, the value, beliefs, customs and duties built up by the entire, long history of humanisty.A technology is a natural part of the material culture. With reference to the individual the culture is a controlling and controlling mechanism, imposing a system of values and patterns of behaviours. The technology more and more often supports the culture, not to say her is descending. Fascination for technology, with gadget, they cause pursuit of the change, as well as the profit, that the culture is vanishing.

I think that one should use technologies the 21st century is bringing which to us, however one should not forget about the culture (both of the one spiritual as well as financial). One should care about money order typical of her and try to hand her over to next generations with modern media so as the Internet.
