Study Notes
Culture as a Complex Whole
- Culture encompasses behavior, language, traditions, beliefs, values, religion, laws, and arts perceived by members of society.
- It is a cumulative transfer of learned behaviors passed down through generations via social learning.
Aspects of Culture
- Values: Convictions that guide behavior, determining what is desirable and unacceptable actions.
- Norms: The accepted standards of behavior in society; classified into folkways, mores, taboos, and laws.
Filipino Value System
- Evaluative Core: Represents intrinsic value, indicating how individuals prioritize significant impacts on their lives.
- Expressive Core: Demonstrates one’s actions and manners towards others.
- Spiritual Core: Represents values that give life meaning and purpose, encapsulating emotional expression and reasoning.
Types of Norms
- Folkways: Informal rules that govern routine behaviors (e.g., eating with hands) and lead to social disapproval if violated.
- Mores: Strong moral norms linked with moral judgment; breaking them is often viewed as immoral (e.g., prohibiting murder).
- Taboos: Norms prohibiting specific actions considered culturally unacceptable (e.g., cannibalism).
- Laws: Formalized norms codified by the government enforcing legal ramifications for violations.
Cultural Learning
- Culture is learned unconsciously through interactions with family, peers, educational systems, and societal influences.
- Enculturation involves adapting behaviors, values, language, and morals accepted in one's community.
Symbols in Culture
- Symbols represent deep meanings; examples include colors, objects, and rituals that convey societal beliefs.
- Cultural practices, like wearing mourning pins, symbolize collective grief and cultural identity.
Cultural Integration and Dynamics
- Cultural Integration: Blending elements of different cultures, allowing coexistence and adaptation without losing original culture.
- Culture evolves through interactions and shifts in environment, reflecting changing beliefs, values, and norms over time.
Importance of Communication in Culture
- Language serves as a key component of culture, facilitating understanding between members of a group.
- Rituals and traditions are vital for maintaining cultural identity and continuity across generations.
Cultural Adaptability
- Cultures adapt to new environments and technological advancements, influencing evolving practices and norms.
