* A society is a group of individuals sharing a
common culture, geographical location, and
government.
* The major elements of society include social
solidarity, shared identity and culture, common
language, large population, definite geographical
area, and political, economic, and social organization.
* Culture is the sets of beliefs, ideas, values,
practices, knowledge, history and shared experiences,
attitudes, and material objects and possessions
accumulated over time and shared by the members of
the society. Material and nonmaterial cultures are the
tow primary categories of culture.
* Symbols, language, values, and norms are the four
vital aspects of culture
* Culture is acquired through socialization and
enculturation. Socialization is the process of forging
identity through social interaction and social agents;
enculturation is the process whereby an individual
learns and acquires the culture of the society he or
she belongs to.
* Ethnocentric and xenocentric views, which believe
in the notion that a culture may be “superior” or
“inferior” to other cultures, are challenged and
negated by cultural relativism, multiculturalism, and
cultural sensitivity.
