In this article, for gaining theoretical insight of the cultural situation of society, the paradigms in sociology & anthropology have been dealt with.
This article examines the concept of culture & the directions taken in this respect making use of the comparative study & the model derived from paradigms.
Inspired by the theories and concepts in sociology & anthropology as well as their amendment, "two kinds of basic concept in anthropology & three kinds of major basic concept in sociology have been identified.
The general hypothesis of this article is that the concept of culture in sociology differs from that in anthropology.
In the first step, taking in to consideration the human relations with its nature, the human relations with others and the variables which form human relation with God, we have selected an excellent concept of culture: the concept of culture have two basic components, ”internal-essential” & “external-behavioral” component. Here, "the meaning of spiritual of culture & human relation with God" has allocated the most share of the main critical task.
