Културна комуникация и национална консолидация
The thesis of this article is that cultural communication is a decisive factor in the formation and consolidation of a nation. Society and communication occur simultaneously; both phenomena can not exist without each other.Each cultural communication system implies the emergence of new nations as it makes it possible to identify the individual with the group/community based on common past, territory, symbols, language and political and legal institutions. The lack of such a system and the existence of the so-called “ethnic syndrome” hinders the cultural development of entire societies, as individuals and communities do not receive the information they need for themselves and for their activity. This prevents communication, and, consequently, national consolidation.Finally, an own definition of the concept of “nation” is proposed.
