Subculture vs CultureSubculture is self-organizing whereas culture is more of an overwhelming force. A subculture may surround a hobby, art movement, music scene, fashion sense, philosophy or lifestyle. Culture surrounds pervasive social groups such as a nation, community, religion, ethnicity or social class.People may choose to join a culture but they are also inevitably born into a culture or multiple cultures. Subculture tends to be an individual choice. Culture is often more intensive than subculture. For example, a person's native language or languages are an aspect of their culture. Subcultures such as science fiction enthusiasts may develop a unique vocabulary but this isn't nearly as intensive as a native language.Subculture isn't necessarily contrary to culture and the two tend to intertwine. |
