France :: about

Culture

France reached its position in Europe and in the whole world mainly through its individual culture which is reflected especially in the language. French actually organise the protection of their language in media politics by instructing quotas for music and movies. In the European Union, the UNESCO and the WTO France is fighting for its definition of cultural diversity („diversité culturelle“): ”Culture is not a good that can be traded without barriers”. The care and preservation of the material cultural heritage is a national matter. This understanding is being supported in the public with governmental measures, which help form a nation wide cultural awareness. In a cultural calendar certain days have been marked to celebrate things like the national heritage, music or cinema, which are very popular in the population. Noble cultural events reflect the self-conception of France as a cultural nation with Paris as its cultural capital. After spending a gorgeous day in one of France’s skiing regions, which have already hosted three winter Olympics (Chamonix 1924, Grenoble 1968 and Albertville 1992), you can let the day unwind enjoying the traditional French cuisine and a glass of red wine.
