Reaffirming the relevance of culture for nursing.

This article reaffirms the relevance of the concept of culture for nursing and suggests the utility of recent developments in culture theory. Culture has long been considered to play an important role in the practice of nursing. The historical development of the concept of culture is reviewed with emphasis on nurse scholars and anthropologists who have addressed culture as an area of inquiry. The meaning-centered perspective of culture, to include embodiment, is reviewed and recommended as a means of addressing the current emphasis on cultural diversity in nursing. This perspective is seen as having broad implications for both advancing theoretical development in nursing and for nursing practice.
