Cultural movement
A cultural movement is a change in the way a number of different disciplines approach their work. This embodies all art forms, the sciences, and philosophies. Historically, different nations or regions
of the world have gone through their own independent sequence of movements in culture, but as world communications have accelerated this geographical distinction has become less distinct
When cultural movements go through revolutions from one to the next, genres tend to get attacked and mixed up, and often new genres are generated and old ones fade. These changes are often reactions against the prior cultural form, which typically has grown stale and repetitive
An obsession emerges among the mainstream with the new movement, and the old one falls into neglect - sometimes it dies out entirely, but often it chugs along favored in a few disciplines and occasionally making reappearances
(sometimes prefixed with "neo-")
There is continual argument over the precise definition of each of these periods, and one historian might group them differently, or choose different names or descriptions. As well, even though in many cases the popular change from one to the next can be swift and sudden, the beginning and end of movements are somewhat subjective, as the movements did not spring fresh into existence out of the blue and
did not come to an abrupt end and lose total support, as would be suggested by a date range. Thus use of the term "period" is somewhat deceptive. "Period" also suggests a linearity of development, whereas it has not been uncommon for two or more distinctive cultural
approaches to be active at the same time. Historians will be able to find distinctive traces of a cultural movement before its accepted beginning, and there will always be new creations in old forms.
So it can be more useful to think in terms of broad "movements" that have rough beginnings and endings. Yet for historical perspective, some rough date ranges will be provided for each to indicate the "height" or accepted time span of the movement
This current article covers western, notably European and American cultural movements. They have, however, been paralleled by cultural movements in the Orient and elsewhere. In the late 20th and early 21st century in Thailand, for example, there has been a cultural shift
away from western social and political values more toward Japanese and Chinese
As well, Thai culture has reinvigorated monarchical concepts to accommodate state shifts away from western ideology regarding democracy and monarchies
الحركة الثقافية
cultural movement
هي كل ممارسة تهدف ّإلى التغيير في طريقة التفكير والاعتقادات السائدة بخصوص مجموعة من القضايا الثقافية ذات العلاقة بمناحي وفروع معينة - مما يترتب عليه تغير في طريقة مقاربة ومعالجة العمل في هذه النواحي-، والفنون وطرق التفكير بحيث تشكل مدرسة جديدة في الفكر أو الفن أو الأدب نطلق عليها اسم حركة ثقافية.
تشمل هذه الحركات بالتالي أنواع الفن، والعلوم، والفلسفات. كانت هذه الحركات تتم بشكل متعاقب مستقل يختلف من منطقة لأخرى ومن شعب لآخر، لكن ثورة الاتصالات الحديثة سرعت من اختفاء هذا التمايز الثقافي وسرعت من تواصل الشعوب وانتقال الثقافات، وكان من الطبيعي أن تفرض الثقافات الأقوى والأكثر سيطرة نفوذها على مناطق الثقافات الأضعف، وإن كانت كل ثقافة تحتفظ بقدر كبير من الممانعة والمقاومة للتأثيرات الخارجية.
و غالبا ما تكون التغيرات التي تصاحب حركة ثقافية ما هي نتيجة رد فعل وثورة على التقاليد الثقافية التي سادت في مرحلة سابقة، يمكن في العديد من الحالات أن تَذوي الحركات الثقافيّة القديمة وتموت، لكنها أحيانا تنتفض من جديد وتستعيد بريقها لتُشكّل حركة ثقافية مجدّدة غالبا ما تسمى (-الجديدة) كمقابل ل ("neo-").
