Now, let’s go first with the Elements of Culture. There are 3 major
classifications of the Culture’s elements and these are the Culture on our Heads,
Communicating Culture, and the Reproducing Culture where these major
classifications have its own distinct inclusivity. To further understand these
classifications, Let’s dive in first through the first major.
1. Culture on our Heads – These elements that refers to the people’s orientation
on how people think, behave, and view the world and this includes our
values, beliefs, knowledge, norms, folkways, and mores. This major class
means to say that our perspectivity, the way we conceptualize concepts and
ideas with our brain or mind itself and putted into an application or action
are the basis for Culture to exist and nourished. Where this major class
presenting OUR MIND to be the strongest weapon for acknowledgement and
acceptance or neglection and refusals of one’s culture’s existence.
It has 6 inclusion that envelopes this major class. We have values, beliefs,
knowledge, norms, folkways, and mores.
1. Values – it refers to as the collective ideas about what is right or wrong, good
or bad, and desirable or undesirable. In all, values are the individual’s
beliefs that motivate people to act one way or another where it serve as a
guide for human behavior. For example, We Filipinos are known to be family-
oriented because we respect and valued our parents anywhere and wherever
we go, also being a God-center people or a religious one who always pray
and goes to church every Sunday, and also known as internationally for our
hospitality in towards our fellow Filipinos and most especially the tourists.
Some further examples of values being used are Integrity, respect,
responsibility, sportsmanship, servant leadership, and many more.
2. Beliefs – this term refers to the opinions that accept as true. Means to say
that we actually accepting these ideas and superstitions even we actually
didn’t observed it on spot but because of the evidences and scripts that were
created by the ancestors of one’s culture, group of religion and the country
where it appears oftentimes way back centuries, influenced us to accept it
and follow it until now because we believe that it is fundamental in our lives
and we avoid being punished by it as there were existing laws in those
beliefs. For example, As a Christian, we believe that God exists and Jesus
Christ is our savior, while in Muslim, they believe that God also exist in
similar but in another name called Allah, however there were also religion
that believes on the idea that there is no God at all. Though despite of
indifferences to the beliefs we have, the important thing is we respect each
other’s beliefs and no superiority.
6. Mores – A strict norms that control moral and ethical behavior. It is similar
to the norms but in a complex and strict way. For example, Securing health
permit before working in a fast food chain, On the year where pandemic rule
the world, it is a mores for us to enter a facility or any establishment with
a securement of vaccination card, wearing facemask in all part of the place
and you must be 5 feet apart with each other. Here in school, it is a mores
that No ID no entry.
In all these major’s classification and its inclusivity helps in relaying and
passing one’s culture from one people to another and generations to generations
because of the data being installed whether in oral, written, performance, and
object forms.
