social institutions. In culture, material and non-material aspects
is a factor always involved. Ogburn further offers a concept of cultural analysis with the concept of "cultural lagj",

category, namely material culture and non-material culture. Both encourage change and race
in the process of change. Usually there is a prior material change, while non-material culture the changes followed later. The alteration of material culture is the cause of non-material change, non-mate change is slower in its shape adjustment, or growth
not always as fast as the whole, but there is
parts that grow fast and there are other parts that grow slowly,
fast growing parts and other developing parts
slow interconnected interdependence, a state of being
so Ogburn is called "cultural la {'(in
Wallis, 1960). A wide variety of cultures and speed levels
its development is mutually different, there is a faster process
and some are slow. Rapid change in a culture raises the need for adjustment through other changes, through
various correlations of the relationship of every culture.
