2.0 Theories about communication and culture, power, memory and spectacle  交流和文化，影響力，記憶和表演的理論
 

"Culture" stands for a complicated system of folklore, language, knowledge, rituals and living habits, religions that provides the common identity for people at a specific place and at a specific time. When talking about communication and culture, the total spectrum of communication should be paid attention to, which include language, non-verbal communication, customs and perceived values, concepts of time as well as space. Even though two people share the same language might have very different values and customs. Communication and culture have complex and close relationship with each other, most important of all, culture are made from communications, which means that communication is the method of human interaction by which cultural characteristics are shared. The saying that individuals started out to create a culture when interacting with each other is not comprehensive, however, cultures are by-products of communication in society. As a result, without the help of communication and the media of communication, there would be little chance that people can preserve culture and pass them on from one generation to another. To be exact, culture is made possible through communication. And communication has been influenced a lot by cultural characteristics. No matter with what culture, the common truth is that communication reshapes culture and culture also reshapes communication. One defined theory of communication theory is communication accommodation theory. Communication Accommodation Theory has been defined as the theoretical view of examining the underlying motivations and results of what occurs when two people are changing their styles of communication. Theorists of communication accommodation are for the point that through communication, people are able to find ways of accommodating or adjusting to completely new lifestyles.

“文化”代表民間傳說的一個復雜的系統，語言，知識，禮儀和生活習慣，宗教信仰，它為人們共同的身份在特定的地點和特定的時間。在談到傳播與文化，通信頻 譜應該引起注意，其中包括語言，非語言交流，風俗習慣和感知價值，時間的概念，以及空間。即使兩個人共享相同的語言可能有非常不同的價值觀和習俗。傳播與 文化有相互搭配，最重要的是復雜而密切的關系，文化是由通信制成，這意味著溝通是人際交往的方法，通過它的文化特征是共享的。有一種說法，個人開始了創造 一種文化，當與對方的互動是不全面的，然而，文化是社會溝通的副產品。其結果是，沒有溝通和交流的媒體的幫助，就不會有很大的機會，人們可以保存文化和從 一代傳遞他們到另一個。準確的說，文化是通過溝通成為可能。通信已經影響了很多文化特色。不管什么文化，共同的事實是，通信重塑文化和文化也重塑溝通。一 個定義的通信理論是傳播適應理論。通信理論住宿已被定義為研究基礎和動機時，兩個人正在改變他們的溝通風格會發生什么結果的理論觀點。通信的理論家到如此 地步，通過溝通，人們都能夠找到適應全新的生活方式的途徑。#p#分頁標題#e#
 

Spectacle is what is exhibited to display, which could be any of unusual and worthy of particular notice, a distinguished scenery and alike. Spectacle is much more than a collection of different images, instead, images mediated the social relationship between people. Something that can be seen especially a piece of impressive natural scenery, a performance or exhibition on a large scale and a some sorts of very bad behaviours. The word of spectacle conjures images of luxury exhibition and performance as well as images of negativeness such as violence and atrocity.

 

Next, power means the ability or capacity to act, which is considered to be potential and eternal, meanwhile, power may refer to the faculty of executing something.

3.0 Analysis of the controversial problems  有爭議問題的分析
 

3.1 The controversial issues about the wedding

Countries which have the Queen to be the leader of nation seem to be paying less attention than the United States did, which had a long and difficult time in fighting against the monarchy. It is believed by some observers that the main difference lies in the different meaning of the royal wedding to different people, for common wealth people, the royal wedding is no more than a offshoot of politics, while for the British, it means tax money at their work, for other countries such as the U.S., it is equal to an entertainment spectacle for the whole country at ease with celebrities and unearned wealth.

 

The issue of protocol in the wedding is caused by the controversy concerning about inviting royals from remote and poor democratic countries in Saudi Arabia and Bahrain. The issue created just expected controversy that it should have. According to the protocol, they are supposed to be invited, however, there will be a lot of controversy following inviting those people, which might be not worth. According to Peter Carty, the problem is just an issue of protocol. And the organizers of the wedding is in a dilemma, if the organizers of the royal wedding didn't invite leaders of state from not democratic countries, there would be rarely any leaders at the wedding.#p#分頁標題#e#

 

The tainting of the royal family, the scandals, corruptions which have influenced the system for many years. According to some people, the royal family don't always keep their good name, their members are not too smart and Duke of York has caused controversy that he is not a very intelligent individual who was attached to the scandals was in his poor choice of his business. Greed is also noticed, they are somehow with the best education possible persons while they are not bright individuals.

 

As is known, Kate comes from a normal middle class and working class family, who have buried their life in living for their own money, building up their own business. However, Kate Middleton is not the only person to be upward social mobility, and survey shows every seven in ten Brits are identified as middle class. Royal wedding did cause some controversy over the background and upbringing of Kate. However, Kate's parents are multi-millionaires, who set up their company and provided mail-order services. However, it is still under debate that wedding between royal family and middle class family brings more advantages or disadvantages. And because of the special royal family, Kate is supposed to breed, and this is her obligation.

 

3.2 The effects of Power, Spectacle and memory

Power

Power means the ability or capacity to act, which is considered to be potential and eternal, meanwhile, power may refer to the faculty of executing something. The power of influence by the media can affect the development of new stories. For example, the British expects Taylor Documentary was influenced by press media on the British team's fortunes at the cost of 17 billion francs. The face of being remembered or remembrance which are dedicated to the parents' memories. Media power is basically symbolic and persuading, in a way, media power has the potential of having a control over the minds viewers or readers to some extent. However, the influence is not direct to people's action, the ultimate purpose of the practicing of power. In following aspects such as knowledge, intentions, beliefs and plans are influenced, besides, under the condition of other sources of information, mind control through media could not be complete. Oppositely, some psychological and sociological evidences have suggested that in spite of commonly-found media power, the viewers and readers will usually keep a minimum degree of independence in the process of the practice of power. Audiences accept the news reports as true opinions, and the journalistic opinions are thought to be legitimate and absolutely correct, as a result, the media to a large degree lead the direction of common perspectives. In many circumstances, the media power, together with social power, is claimed to be an abuse of power, since there exist various forms and types of the illegitimate and some irrational practice of power. Wrong standards and values or norms are supposed to be set up, while the audience are changed to become what might not be their best interest. (Altschull, J.H. ,1984)#p#分頁標題#e#
