| Research Abstract |
An industrial capitalistic society consists of three different domains : techno-economic structure, polity and culture. And modern societies are being rationalized in two separate ways : "socially" and "culturally". Therefore, the very discrepancy of the domains of "culture", and of "politics" and "society", is significantly characteristic of modernity.
Modernism has originated in the domain of "culture" isolated form a systematized social structure. For instance, in the latter half of the 19th century, the development of industrial capitalism in European societies caused the drastic change of their social structures, which gabe rise to, as it is called, cultural modernizaition movement. Then, the domain of "culture" was set as a sphere of autonomous value system in which beauty could be reinstated. This domain roused over-heated expectation. "Being national" in the domain of "culture" was gaining new positioning in societies which were being homogenized, because it was thought to lay stress on differences.
