function which is the result of the complex influence of <strong>al</strong>l structur<strong>al</strong> and<br />

superstructur<strong>al</strong> factors with an impact on cultture. More exactly, this<br />

function is that of mo<strong>de</strong>lling the person<strong>al</strong>ity of human beings, at the same<br />

implicit, în sprijinul afirmării, susţinerii unei condiţii sine qua non a<br />

socio-umanului – Cultura.<br />

Pentru relevarea funcţiilor soci<strong>al</strong>e <strong>al</strong>e culturii în societatea<br />
