THE CARRIERS OF CULTURE. Chapter 3 (Pt. II)
Standard: • SSSocC1: students will explain the major development and importance of culture. • Explain the importance of culture as an organizing tool in society. • Describe the components of culture to include language, symbols, and norms
Essential Question: • How do we learn the “norms” of society?
The three carriers of culture… • Language • Values • Rules (norms). • They are what “shape society” and make up a culture.
Language • Lang. is the ability to communicate using symbols…orally or in writing. • A loss of language, may mean a loss of culture. • Language Embodies Culture… participating in the culture means knowing the language. • Language is a framework for how we view ourselves…example “African-American vs. Black”. Takes the emphasis off of color and puts it on culture. • Language as a symbol of common unity… strongest bond.
Values • Shared standards of what is desirable • Many values are universal (security, strong family ties, etc) the way they are achieved varies greatly. • Example…we all value security…in America, may = money in the bank. A traditional society it may = a large family. • Values are what are important to us!!!
The rules…. “norms”. • Shared rules of conduct…how we should “act”. • Norms and values are related…a norm suggests the most appropriate way to reach a valued end result. • There are three kinds of norms… • 1. Folkways • 2. Mores • 3. Laws
Folkways • Customary and habitual way of doing (or not doing) things. • Passed down generation to generation • Fireworks on the 4th of July • Shake hands when introduced to someone. • Don’t pick your nose. • Key concept… there is no real harm if you violate them…society may “look at you funny” or avoid you, but no “hard” punishment.
Mores (more-ays) • Norms that have strong feelings of right or wrong associated with them • May be reprimanded, shunned or ostracized. Behavior is offensive and can hurt others. • Examples: • Spitting in someone’s face. • Being dishonest • Making a racist or derogatory comment. • The social punishment, lessens the chance you will do it again.
Laws • Norms that are officially enforced by the government. • Not all laws supported by the culture… example: motorcycle helmet law. • Were mores once… then sentiment was so strong they become law.
Least OffensiveMost Offensive • Folkways • Mores • Laws
Social Control… • Way that society makes “it’s own” follow the rules… getting you to conform to the norms of society. • Conformity (to obey) is encouraged by sanctions • Reward for conforming (following the rules) • Punishment for deviance. (breaking the rules) • Sanctions may be formal (DFCS comes to your home b/c of complaint) or informal (people avoid you because you do not wear deodorant).
Project • What social norm will you break? You will violate a folkway… NOT a more or “the law”!!!!! Start thinking about what you want to do for this project and I will give you the guidelines shortly.
