Precis 2013
Culture, in human societies, has two main aspects; an external, formal aspect and an inner, ideological aspect. The external forms of culture, social or artistic, are merely an organized expression of its inner ideological aspect, and both are an inherent component of a given social structure. They are changed or modified when this structure is changed or modified and because of this organic link they also help and influence such changes in their parent organism. Cultural Problems, therefore, cannot be studied or understood or solved in isolation from social problems, i.e. problems of political and economic relationships. The cultural problems of the underdeveloped countries, therefore, have to be understood and solved in the light of the larger perspective, in the context of underlying social problems. Very broadly speaking, these problems are primarily the problems of arrested growth; they originate primarily from long years of imperialist – Colonialist domination and the remnants of a backward outmoded social structure. This should not require much elaboration European Imperialism caught up with the countries of Asia, Africa or Latin America between the sixteenth and nineteenth centuries. Some of them were fairly developed feudal societies with ancient traditions of advanced feudal culture. Others had yet to progress beyond primitive pastoral tribalism. Social and cultural development of them all was frozen at the point of their political subjugation and remained frozen until the coming of political independence. The culture of these ancient feudal societies, in spite of much technical and intellectual excellence, was restricted to a small privileged class and rarely intermingled with the parallel unsophisticated folk culture of the general masses. Primitive tribal culture, in spite of its child like beauty, had little intellectual content. Both feudal and tribal societies living contagiously in the same homelands were constantly engaged in tribal, racial, and religious or other feuds with their tribal and feudal rivals. Colonialist – imperialist domination accentuated this dual fragmentation, the vertical division among different tribal and national groups, the horizontal division among different classes within the same tribal or national group. This is the basic ground structure, social and cultural, bequeathed to the newly liberated countries by their former over lords.


Title: Impact of Colonialism on Culture
Culture has two components; a formal and an ideological, former is an organized expression of later and both make a social structure. When this organized link is modified culture is changed. Social problems are linked to cultural problems in such a way that social problems can never be studied in isolation from cultural problems. Countries that came under European colonialism suffered culturally. Culture back then was limited to privileged class and remained so until political subjugation. Cultures lacked intellectual content. Feudal and tribal societies were involved in tribal, racial fights. Colonialists make this horizontal and vertical fragmentation look more visible and left it as a gift for newly independent countries.

Avoid complex and compound sentences.
Write shorter and meaningful sentences.
Write the number portion in descending order.
Instead of writing "Required words", write 1/3rd words or something similar.
Avoid repeating words of passage. "formal, ideological
Avoid reusing the passage's sentence structure/syntax/punctuation
Title is ok. But 95%+ candidates will write something similar.
Just passing marks for this attempt.
Keep practising

Your title is fine, below is my attempt at the precis.

Culture in human societies has two main aspects; an external outlook and an inner ideological aspect, both of these are integral components of underlying social structure. Cultural and social issues are interlinked, Cultural problems can only be studies and solved if they are taken in a larger social context;
these social and cultural problems mainly originate from Imperalist - colonist domination. European Imperialism - colonism of Asia, Africa and Latin America magnified the already present inter and intra tribal and feudal fractures; which in return stagnated their social and cultural development.
This is the socio-cultural structure the newly independent countries inherited from their Colonial masters
