The culture of the earth
Throughout history, the relationship of communities that have inhabited rural territories and mountains with the land has been the basis of a culture, the culture of the land. The Basque language, the communal management of mountains and forests, the relationship with natural cycles, the collective heritage of the land or the referents of Basque mythology have been part of the land culture of the Basque Country. In the following opinion columns we will try to immerse ourselves in the culture of the earth.
In recent decades, productivity, market adaptation, consumer power, technification, internationalization and regularization, among others, have become symbols of development, modernity and a culture of success. This culture, linked to modernity, has led to the consideration of nature as a resource and the understanding of it as something extraordinary, but not only that; it has also led to the systematic, global and hegemonic application of specific values and norms that have determined the material and symbolic relationships between diverse lifestyles.
