Culture & Media
Culture is the rituals, practices, and artifacts that shape the behaviors of individuals, groups, and societies. Communication is central to the construction, maintenance, and transmission of culture, as well as to cultural resistance and change. Annenberg researchers explore the complex relationship between communication and cultural practices and its implications.
