Do you think this word is redundant, since society and culture have similar meanings?

I used this word in an essay some time ago, and it has bothered me.
I googled and found that others have used it, although I couldn't find it in any dictionaries.

I used it so it would be the definiendum for "Of or pertaining to how one acts/thinks/feels in regards to their society (as in people around them) as well as to culture (as in customs/traditions/history/beliefs/etc.)."

Is this correct?

Also, should it be hyphenated or not?



(I know, I'm kind of anal-retentive with these kinds of things...)
