Is there an actual culture?

Abstract

The question of whether there is an actual culture in terms of relevance, and not only its spatial and temporal identification, is included in the title of the article. It attempts to explore the perspective of eventfulness, as well as to show its correlation with the cultural and historical aspect of research. An assessment is given of a rather important trend in modern socio-cultural research – the "reassembly" of cultural phenomena. Such an angle allows us to actually assess the deployment of an actual culture from the point of view of its value-semantic definition. In ordinary, often routine research practices, emphasis is placed on the genesis of the phenomenon, its connection with other phenomena. However, for the study of actual culture, it is of particular importance how, through the prism of, for example, agency, one can show the inclusion of actual culture in the relations of people and things, etc.
