<br />
The word '''tradition''' comes from the [[Latin]] ''traditionem'', acc. of ''traditio'' which means "handing over, passing on", and is used in a number of ways in the [[English]] language:<br />
<br />
# [[Belief]]s or customs taught by one generation to the next, often [[oral]]ly. For example, we can speak of the tradition of sending birth announcements.<br />
# A set of customs or practices. For example, we can speak of Christmas traditions.<br />
# A broad religious [[movement]] made up of religious denominations or church bodies that have a common history, customs, [[culture]], and, to some extent, [[body]] of teachings. For example, one can speak of [[Islam]]'s [[Sufi]] tradition or Christianity's [[Lutheran]] tradition.<br />
<br />
However, on a more basic theoretical level, tradition(s) can be seen as information to be transmitted through time. For that which is brought into the present from the past, in a particular societal [[context]], is information. This is even more fundamental than particular acts or practices even if repeated over a long sequence of time. <br />
<br />
== Traditions and stylings of the mannerism ==<br />
A '''tradition''' is a practice, custom, or [[narrative|story]] that is [[memory|memorized]] and passed down from generation to generation, originally without the need for a writing system. Tools to aid this process include poetic devices such as [[rhyme]] and [[alliteration]]. The stories thus preserved are also referred to as tradition, or as part of an [[oral tradition]].<br />
<br />
Tradition is a [[knowledge]] system (a means of transferring knowledge). Economists Friedrich Hayek and Thomas Sowell explain that tradition is an economically efficient way to transfer and obtain [[knowledge]] of all kinds. Sowell, for example, notes that [[volition|decision-making]] consumes time (a valuable resource), and cultural traditions offer a rich, low-cost, consensually authenticated way to economize on the resources required to make decisions independently. Chemist and philosopher [[Michael Polanyi]] argues that the importance of tradition stems precisely from the [[fact]] that we know more than we can articulate, and that we amass and [[communication|communicate]] valuable knowledge through tradition, often without conscious awareness of all the factors that influenced the development of traditions.<br />
<br />
Traditions are often presumed to be ancient, unalterable, and deeply important, though they may sometimes be much less "natural" than is presumed. Some traditions were deliberately invented for one reason or another, often to highlight or enhance the importance of a certain institution.Traditions may also be changed to suit the needs of the day, and the changes can become accepted as a part of the ancient tradition. A famous book on the subject is ''[http://cambridge.org/catalogue/catalogue.asp?isbn=9780521437738 The Invention of Tradition]'', edited by [[Eric Hobsbawm]] and Terence Ranger.<br />
<br />
Some examples include "the invention of tradition" in Africa and other colonial holdings by the occupying forces. Requiring legitimacy, the colonial power would often invent a "tradition" which they could use to legitimize their own position. For example, a certain succession to a chiefdom might be recognized by a colonial power as traditional in order to favor their own candidates for the job. Often these inventions were based in some form of tradition, but were grossly exaggerated, distorted, or biased toward a particular interpretation.<br />
<br />
== Philosophical tradition ==<br />
The [[idea]] of tradition is important in philosophy. 20th century and contemporary Western [[philosophy]] is often divided between an "[[analytic philosophy|analytic]]" tradition, dominant in [[Anglophone]] and [[Scandinavia]]n countries, and a "[[Continental philosophy|Continental]]" tradition, dominant in [[German-speaking Europe|German]] and [[Latin Europe|Romance-speaking]] [[Europe]].<br />
<br />
== Traditionalism ==<br />
In the [[Roman Catholic Church]], traditionalism is the doctrine that their sacred tradition holds equal [[authority]] to their [[scripture]]s. In the Orthodox Church, scripture is considered to be the core constituent of a larger tradition. These views are often condemned as [[heresy|heretical]] by Protestant churches, who hold the [[Bible]] to be the only valid tradition. Inspired by the Protestant rejection of tradition, the "Age of Enlightenment" began to consider even the Bible itself as a questionable tradition. The parentage of liberalism stems from this such attack on accepted notions of European traditional institutions, religious belligerence, state interference and aristocratic privilege.<br />
<br />
''Traditionalism'' may also refer to the concept of a fundamental human tradition present in all orthodox religions and traditional forms of [[society]]. This view is put forward by the [[Traditionalist School]].<br />
<br />
Traditionalist Catholic refers to those, such as Archbishop Lefebvre, who want the [[worship]] and practices of the church to be as they were before the [[Second Vatican Council]] (1962-1965).<br />
<br />
"Radical Traditionalism" refers to a [[worldview]] that stresses a return to traditional [[value]]s of hard work, craftsmanship, local [[culture]], tribal or clan orientation, and non-material values in response to a perceived excess of materialism, consumerism, technology, and societal [[homogeneity]]. Most Radical Traditionalists choose this term for themselves to stress their reaction to 'modern' society, as well as an equal disdain for more 'recent' forms of traditionalism based on Judeo-Christian and early-Industrial Age values. It is often allied with branches of Paganism that stress a return to old cultural values that predated the existence of the state system.<br />
<br />
In Islam, traditionalism is the orthodox form, which places importance on traditional forms of learning and acknowledges different traditional schools of thought.<br />
<br />
== Archaeological meaning ==<br />
<br />
In [[archaeology]] a '''tradition''' is a set of [[culture]]s or industries which appear to develop on from one another over a period of time. The term is especially common in the study of American archaeology.<br />
<br />
== Rejection of tradition ==<br />
Destruction is part of nature according to the German philosopher [[Friedrich Nietzsche]]. Nietzsche claims that entities that reinterpret the world again and again are strong. That way sorrow and loss which is linked to trying to keep tradition can be avoided. Nietzsche wants his readers to open up and accept nature as it is in all its manyfold appearances. In order to be able to interpret [[nature]] it is mandatory to [[imagination|imagine]]. It is weak to claim that your imagination is the only [[truth]]. A strong person is someone who is ready to change in order to avoid self-destruction.<br />
