The Netherlands is a pluralist society because there are all sorts of
different groups of people living here (with different norms, cultures,
lifestyles and origins and who all share a common set of values)
Characteristics:By culture we mean all values, norms and other acquired
Values characteristics that members of a group or society share and
Rules consider natural
Knowledge
Habits - Culture is part of your social identity / personality
Art
Sport - Culture enables people to understand eachother, common
Symbols frame of reference
Holidays
- Culture regulates behaviour what behaviour is
expected of you in a certain situation
3 types:
o Dominant culture: the body of values, norms and characteristics
that are accepted by people within a society (the most common
culture in society)
o Subculture: groups whose moral standards and other cultural
characteristics deviate from the dominant culture
(they have a lot in common with the dominant culture, but are
different in some aspects, like music, clothes, moral standards)
o Ethnic subculture: being a member of a particular group of people
or originating from a certain country
o Counter-culture: groups who oppose the dominant culture or are a
threat to it
Socialization: the process whereby people conciously
and unconciously learn the moral standards and other
cultural characteristics of the
society or group they
belong to. It ensures the
survival of a culture
& it also takes place in
collective
patterns of behavior.
Socializing institutions:
places where / persons /
, 2
communities from which you learn these characteristics: family, school,
work……..
Socialization takes place by means of imitation and social control
Social control: the way people are stimulated or forced to behave in a
certain way
o Internalization: you are so familiar with the culture, that you
automatically behave as the group expects you to. E.g.: Eating
with cutlery
o Acculturation: Learning the characteristics of a culture that you
weren’t originally a member of.
o Enculturation: learning the cultural characteristics of your group on
your mother’s knee.
Kinds of sanctions
Our personality is formed
by:
o Inherited characteristics (nature)
o Learned characteristics (nurture / culture)
Group identification: our personality and identity partly
consist of social elements.
o Individual or collective societies
Individualistic: society emphasizes individual (development)=
NL
Collectivists: focus is on the (interest of) the group
‘The presentation of the self’ is strongly influenced by social
expectation, this is role behavior.
With impression management you put on a role in ‘front stage’ but as
soon as you are ‘back stage’ you step out of your role.
We should be loyal to the fundamental commitment we have to Dutch
society, the laws in our legislation form the minimum bond we have w
eachother, like must paying taxes & having to go to school.
