Features of Political Culture

1. The views of the people regarding the world of politics are the
subject of political culture, but not the various events organized
in world politics. So it can be called the psychological dimension
of politics.
2. In the political culture, the attitude of both the political ideal and
the effective system of the state is expressed.
3. It consists of empirical concepts of political life and values that
are worth pursuing in political life, and they can be emotional,
perceptive.
4. If there is a kind of attitude among the people about important
political issues in the political culture, then there is political
stability. It is easy to get rid of the crisis if people’s attitudes are
favorable to political institutions during the crisis period of the
country.
5. Political culture does not remain unchanged. It is also constantly
reorganized in terms of cultural change in society. With the
arrival of foreigners to live, the revolution, the war, or any other
major change can completely change the political culture of a
state.

Is the political culture inherited?


The individual does not inherit the political culture by birth. That
means, it is not a matter of birthright. It is created within the individual
through political socialization. The social and political systems in which
the person is born, the particular political values and attitudes that
transcend the individual.
Individuals are connected with the political parties, other political
organizations or institutions, the pressing groups, the state structure
and its functions, within the existing political system.

In this way, the individual becomes increasingly connected and united


with the symbols and values of the existing society and political
system. This process continues throughout the life of the individual.
And this is how political culture emerges within the individual.
