Every society has the same needs and that every society finds different solutions to these needs according to One of the founders of cultural anthropology, Bronislaw Malinowski also believes that Culture is dynamic, because it represents the experiences, beliefs, norms, etc. of living people. A good definition for culture is, Anything that can’t be explained by DNA. So, the culture is defined always evolving, being pushed, stretched and changed. What was a forbidden belief in the past becomes a norm… What was a norm becomes arcane and sometimes offensive. Culture is the solution to that. Societies of all the world have developed cultural solutions that have different forms depending of historical, political, economical and social differences in the people that developed them. When a new need arise or when the society has changed, for internal or external reason, culture also changes to meet the new request. In this sense, we may assume that there are cultures that change their political or economic system, because someone gains enough power to take control of a previously unruled society.
