Culture Change

The word "Change" is a process of  transformation from one type to another and due to social and cultural change is intimated as a twin it can not be separated from each other. So, we have tried to explain these word.
 The term "Cultural Change" according to Kingsley Davis,(2004)em brass all changes occurring in any branch of culture including art,science,technology,philosophy etc.,as well as changes in the forms and rules of social organization.(Davis,2004:622). Cultural change in any aspect of a culture , whether by addition, subtraction, modification of cultural traits or complexes, cultural change may come from may sources but most often occurs through contact with other cultures,interactions or the internal adjustment of a culture (Scott,1997:97).So, it can be said that cultural change is broader than social change and social change is a only a part of it. All social changes are cultural change, but all cultural changes need not necessarily be the social changes also. Due to cultural factors consist our values and beliefs,idea, and ideology, moral and manners,custom and tradition,and various institutions,there is an intimate connection between our beliefs and institution ,valuation and relationships. Culture gives speed and direction to the social change. Actually, the field of social change is limited in comparisons with the field of culture change. Our ways of behaving , living thinking acting are very much influenced by the changes in social cultural values (Shankar Rao,2005:8:500)
