Culturation: The Relentless Contemporization of Modern Identity and the Failure of Individual Authenticity

By J.D. Stewart

Who makes most of your decisions? Do you think that you make most major decisions unaided by anyone, and you bear total responsibility? This may not come close to the truth. We may make important decisions such as where you are going to live and what occupation you will pursue. In a strange interrelatedness of deciding factors we move in circles by which one major decision may presuppose other major decisions in our lives. Depending on occupation, where we live, the house we live in and the car we drive may presuppose, within a narrow range of options, the bulk of our life decisions. The options may be limited for even more minor decision options. The culture we may find controls much of what we believe to be selected and determined idiosyncratic identifiers, yet like bacteria we may be cultured by our own surroundings .
