dc.description.abstract | Animation has no single definition. The aim of my essay is to put in order some concepts
and present three scholarly ideas of animation, which are used in a culture sector, sport and physical culture, social and political activity and also in parish and church actions. Animation is a social and cultural phenomenon as well as a dynamic process of formation of social relations, always connected with the culture. Thus, it is located at the meeting point of social and cultural work. The animating practice is not uniform. The tools and methods in animation are diverse and they depend on people, their needs and desires, cultural traditions, systems of values, lifestyles and finally, social and economic conditions. For these reasons one method of animating cannot be pointed out. | en_US |
