Culture is a set of meanings and values inherent in human living, it is an organic concept, containing in itself both development and decline. There is not just development, but also decline. That is to say, any culture will manifest the fruits of attention as well as inattentiveness, understanding as well as flight from understanding, intelligence as well as bias. Such is the genetic and dialectical notion of culture in the Canadian Jesuit philosopher-theologian Bernard Lonergan (1904-1984), which this book studies, with the conviction that Lonergan can offer meaningful solutions to the various issues confronted in an intercultural context like that of North East India.
