Is culture a form of nature?
Culture is not a form of nature, but rather a product of human society. While culture can be influenced by nature and the environment, it is distinct in that it is created, shared, and passed down through generations by humans. Nature refers to the physical world and natural phenomena, while culture encompasses the beliefs, customs, arts, and social behaviors of a particular group of people.

Celebrity And Power : Fame and Contemporary Culture
The celebrity is an ambiguous figure in contemporary culture.Simultaneously celebrated and denigrated, stars represent not only the embodiment of success, but also the ultimate construction of false value.They are a peculiar form of public subjectivity that negotiates the tension between a democratic culture of access and a consumer capitalist culture of excess.Celebrity and Power examines this dynamic, questioning the cultural forces behind our need to become endlessly embroiled with the construction and collapse of celebrities.Through detailed analysis of figures from Tom Cruise to Oprah Winfrey to the commercial pop music sensation New Kids on the Block, author and cultural critic P.David Marshall investigates the general public’s desire to associate with celebrity.He examines various kinds of stars, questioning the needs each type fulfills in our lives and relating these needs to particular entertainment media.Marshall asks why enigmatic, distant stars populate the silver screen while television constructs approachable “everyman” figures and popular music features audience-identified celebrity personalities.He looks at the significance of stars who amass cultlike followings as well as those who appear to prompt outright rejection.Celebrity and Power identifies the forces that have enveloped the development of democratic culture and their partial resolution through a redefined public sphere populated by celebrities.Marshall argues that the new concern with the masses that characterizes modern capitalism promotes figures who can be seen as part of the crowd but who are articulated as individuals.As such, they provide a model of self-differentiation that furthers an economy in which product consumption is thought to bestow individualism and personality.Bridging the fields of media studies, film studies, communications, and popular culture, Marshall’s volume is a unique resource for students and researchers in all of these disciplines as well as for the general reader.P.David Marshall is director of the Media and Cultural Studies Centre in the Department of English, University of Queensland in Australia.

Culture, Power and Education : Representation, Interpretation, Contestation

This thought-provoking work will be of interest to students and scholars with an interest in sociology of art and culture, sociology of education, critical pedagogy, cultural studies, museum studies and social theory.

How many people can I power with electricity using hydropower and tidal power alone in the world without harming nature?
It is difficult to provide an exact number of people that can be powered with hydropower and tidal power alone without harming nature, as it depends on various factors such as the specific locations of the power plants, the size and capacity of the facilities, and the environmental impact assessments. However, it is estimated that hydropower and tidal power have the potential to provide electricity to a significant portion of the world's population in a sustainable manner. These renewable energy sources have the capacity to generate large amounts of electricity without emitting greenhouse gases, and with careful planning and management, they can help meet the energy needs of millions of people while minimizing harm to the environment.
