Prefigurative culture is the current dominant paradigm in the world: "We are now entering a period, new in history, in which the young are taking on new authority in their prefigurative apprehension of the still unknown future" (Mead 1970:1). Mead anticipated the prefigurative culture, identifying much of the globalised world as being cofigurative at her time of writing. Yet, she was never able to truly define what a prefigurative culture would look like - possibly this is the whole point. From a cofigurative viewpoint, a prefigurative culture is incomprehensible. She did, however, accurately describe the conditions under which a prefigurative culture would arise: "Today, nowhere in the world are there elders who know what the children know, no matter how remote and simple the societies are in which the children live. In the past there were always some elders who knew more than any children in terms of their experience of having grown up within a cultural system. Today there are none" (1970:60f.).
A prefigurative culture is a social environment that embodies the values and principles of the ideal society that people are striving to create. It is a space where individuals live out their visions of a better world through their daily actions and interactions, serving as a model or blueprint for the future society they aspire to build.
culture defines who a person is, where they come from [in some cases], what they eat, what they wear, what they believe in.
Culture can be broadly categorized into material culture (physical objects and artifacts), social culture (customs, beliefs, and behaviors of a society), and symbolic culture (values, norms, language, and rituals). Additionally, culture can be classified as high culture (art, literature, and intellectual pursuits) or popular culture (entertainment, fashion, and mass media).

Individual culture is a culture that values the individual over the group. This contrasts with a collectivist culture, which values the individual only with respect to their contribution to a certain social group.
