Abstract
The article discusses the concept of political culture, derived from its two basic components: culture and politics. By referring to selected concepts of culture and politics presented over the centuries by distinguished thinkers, scholars and researchers in humanities (especially in philosophy), this article attempts to identify elements or factors that interweave these two apparently separate spheres. Political culture observed in contemporary postmodern societies raises questions about the changing values, beliefs and goals that shape our individual and collective behaviour
