"The logic of a nation-people...takes as its supreme charge the sovereignty of the group through a privileging of its traditions and culture and continuity."
Question: Can there be society without culture, traditions, etc.? Or can people live solely off of material motivations devoid of any sentimental connection to the people/surroundings they inhabit? Would that be considered a society?
Personally I think there can be a society without culture and traditions but it wouldn't be a society I would want to live in. When culture is taken from society it gives us a very "John Locke type world" where there is no freedom of expression and everything is very straightforward and one way.
