To some, it has quite a narrow interpretation whereas for others it has a much wider meaning. The narrow interpretation reduces culture to art or education.
Art refers to artistic and literary creativity or to items found in museums.
Education refers to the teaching system or to the whole body of 'general culture' dispensed by the teaching system, by community cultural centres, or by the media. These have their corresponding Ministries for Education and Culture. It is, however, much more useful to look at wider interpretations of culture when we examine culture and development. Yet even here we find that there are many, and often contradictory, definitions which have emerged from sociology and ethnology. Thus a person's culture also includes his inventiveness in resolving problems and in fulfilling his aspirations.
