Cultural development (updated)

"Tumutukoy ang cultural development sa pagsusulong ng
isang makabayan, siyentipiko at pangmasang kultura
laban sa dekadente, bulok, burges-pyudal
at maka-imperyalistang kultura."

-Marice Hermosa

"Masasabing maunlad ang kultura ng isang lipunan kung sinasalamin
nito ang likas na kayamanang sining at panitikan,
hindi ang kulturang iwinawasiwas ng dayuhan
at iilang naghaharing uri."

-Amihan Mabalay
graduate, Development Studies

"Cultural development is positive social change attained
through the process of remolding cultural universals,
thereby developing the society as a whole."

-Jigz Tenorio
student, College Arts of Sciences

"Culture is a historic phenomenon, and its development
is determined by the the succession of socio-economic formations.
It assumes a class character both as to its
ideological content and its practical aims.
Under capitalism, every national culture is split
into two cultures comprising the dominant culture of the
bourgeoisie and the subjugated masses.
However, certain areas of 'commodified' pop culture
transcend class boundaries."
