The Significance of Entertainment
Entertainment is an important social component of human relations and can be defined as
the act of receiving or providing interesting activities for shared or individual amusement. The
constructive expression and exchange of creative and original ideas is of great social
consequence as people interact on a daily basis and for civilization at large. As specified in “The
Evolution of Fun,” being able to utilize entertainment as a means of healthy stress release is also
an important positive psychological benefit. In addition to its innumerable mental and emotional
dividends, the cultural significance of entertainment practices lies in the inherent expression of
beliefs and ideas help by a particular group of people, community, or nation. Accordingly,
several political implications arise as a natural consequence of this connection to views and
principles. The development of techniques of entertainment is one of the most informative
anthropological tools in studying human history and evolution. Jonathan Agah points out that its
origins can be traced from prehistory, to ancient empires of Rome and Egypt, on to
Shakespearean and contemporary forms of literature and theater. As time progresses, the
methods human beings choose to occupy themselves in leisure will remain a poignant glimpse
into the collective social and cultural psyche.
Although scientists and archeologists (textbook) state that the ability to develop language
and tools is what most separates humans from animals, perhaps an even greater measure of
human intelligence is the use of these two skills to development of cave art, storytelling, ceramic
objects, and music. As civilization became more stratified, the innocence of early entertainment
faded. With the emergence of biblical, Roman, and medieval cultures public punishment and
brutality moved to the vanguard of not only entertainment, but as the predominant political tool
for conquest and intimidation. While banquets, theater, and sporting events were common in
these periods, what extravagance and attention surrounding them pales in comparison to that of
gladiatorial brutality of the coliseum or the spectacle of the guillotine. Bearing in mind the
violence of these cultural settings, the overall historical context of entertainment reveals a
diverse heritage of ingenious thinkers and creators who have left a considerable legacy of
literature, art, and music that continues to be enjoyed in contemporary settings (Entertainment
and Punishment).
Modern forms of art, sports, and musical entertainment display aspects that are uniquely
specific to the current mindset with new performers and artists using innovative technology and
mediums to build on established, classical works. Modernization of traditional forms of
entertainment including plays and novels have found new life in film and television. Likewise,
innovations in computer and telecommunications combined with the accessibility provided by
advertising and social media have enabled the mass sharing of ideas and talent to audiences on a
global scale. Diversity and cultural sharing have also brought a unique aesthetic to drama,
literature, and music that is palatable to people of different backgrounds, nationalities, and
languages. Nonetheless, despite all of the collaborative work being accomplished, the pervasive
evils that often plagued the preceding eras have surfaced once more on the contemporary stage.
The writer of this paper believes that unethical practices such as the exploitation of animals and
people, the control and ownership of media by a select few, and disregarding of the harmful
psychological effects of various forms of entertainment are an affront to the greater good of
continued social progress.
One consequence of the modern accessibility to people and information is the
dehumanization of individuals as a means of industry and profit (textbook). Though this
phenomena is rampant in several sectors of business, the entertainment trade has unique
vulnerabilities to exploitation with victims including both animals and people. According to
AnimalLaw.com, the instances of cruelty and sub-par living conditions for performing animals
including circus and carnival acts has continued to rise in spite of activism, legal documentation,
and public outcry. In recent months much media and political concern has also emerged
concerning ethical treatment of student and professional athletes. In a study published by
NationalPsychologist.com, unethical medical treatment, pressure to perform, and under reporting
of illegal substance abuse have contributed to an increased rate of antisocial behaviors, mental,
illness, and rate of suicide among elite athletes. The ethical crisis among sectors of the
entertainment and sports fields can perhaps be correlated to the immense pressure for profit
among team and television network owners who now represent a hand full of people who hold
virtually complete financial control of television, film, and radio markets.
Historically, human beings have depended on one another for social interaction,
entertainment, and sharing of knowledge. By contrast, the unforeseen consequence of the
modern ease of access to entertainment is the socially isolating and insulating effect of instant
gratification. As new technological updates appear on the consumer landscape every few
months, an increased social pressure on individuals to participate in virtual communication rather
than authentic interaction with others is created. This emerging paradigm of extreme
individuality is in direct opposition to the innate generosity of spirit, heroism, and cooperation
that serves as the spark of human ingenuity and strength.
