Stuart Hall's discussion on structuralism and culturalism might help shed some light on it. In short, culture is both created and transformed in passive and active ways—shaped by rigid structures like institutions but also through individual actions. Hall emphasizes that culture is not static; it is a site of negotiation and struggle. Structuralism highlights how overarching systems—like economics, politics, or media—shape cultural practices and meanings. On the other hand, culturalism underscores the role of individuals and groups in actively interpreting and reshaping those meanings through lived experience.
