Culture & Mass media

200 words

Describe the differences between mores and folkways. Make sure it is clear that you understand the difference between the two in your response.
 

• Provide two examples each of mores and folkways that you learned when growing up.
 

• Are your examples as important today?
 

• Will you, or have you, passed these teachings on to your children?
 

• Do mores and/or folkways change as generations pass? Why or Why not?
 

Lastly, think about the discussion in the context of culture.
 

• Are mores and folkways culture specific? This can be based on socio-economic status, religion, race, ethnicity, and geography (for example growing up in a rural environment, urban environment, being raised on the west coast, east coast or down south.) I’m sure you can think of others.
