AP Human Chapter 4

Culture Your way of life
Folk Culture Simple/traditional Isolated to protect customs Non material (behavior) Communal Ex. Amish/Hutterites
Local Culture Traditional, moving into modern ideas(accepted) Small neighborhoods in urban/rural areas Respect traditions Developing economic opportunities
Popular Culture Modern moving towards worldly Urban/open to change Large populated areas Focused on material things Changes constantly due to globalization
Cultural Diffusion Starts from a hearth(origin) Knows as cultural distribution/diffusion (spread)
Expansion Diffusion Constant origin Spreads from origin Contagious
Relocation Diffusion Changing of origin Traditions/customs stay the same
Hierarchical Diffusion Starts from ruler/leader Moves down through society who follow the leader
Stimulus Diffusion Relocation, then a change Origin changes Traditions/customs change due to new location Part of reterritorialization
Assimilation Blended cultures Creates new culture Starts with 2 separate cultures with combining ideas
Transculturation Shared traits between cultures Cultures identify independently
Acculturation Acquired traits from a culture Dominant culture controls a minority culture Minority follows traits of dominant Not assimilation because one culture is in control of the other
Multiculturation Separate cultures Cultures live side by side No changes between cultures Cultures DO NOT affect each other
Syncretism Needed traits for a culture One culture takes traits from another culture necessary to survive Event oriented exchange of traits
Indigenous Culture “Native Activity” If exposed to a modern culture, there could be a change in methods Ex. Makkah
Localism What is in a place shows the culture of that place
Neo Localism Introduce something into a local culture while holding own identity When someone enters an area they will experience mixed cultures Ex. Lindsberg
Ethnic Neighborhoods Section of a community that represents a point of origin Provides support Same background of people Same traditions/customs/food/dress People feel safer and more secure when with others Ex. Little Italy, Chinatown (In NYC)
Cultural Appropriation To take without permission Used and not authenticated Someone claims a cultural trait for themselves, but does not credit original culture
Cultural Appreciation To take without permission Used BUT authenticated Someone claims a cultural trait for themselves but credits the original culture Provides respect to original culture
Authenticity To be authentic, something must be where it originally came from. Remade = Not authentic Ex. If the Eiffel Tower is moved to a new spot, it will not be authentic because it is not experienced at the original site
Cultural Trait Developed and passed down through cultures Generation to Generation Ex. Specific foods/drinks consumed represents the cultural traits
Custom How you do something day to day, developed over time Ex. People in America eat early breakfast, mid day lunch, and end of day dinner, but people in Argentina eat early breakfast, late lunch (very large), then lunch style snack at night
Culture Complex More than one trait makes a culture complex Two cultures with the same trait is also complex Makes it easier to narrow down what culture is being talked about Specific details All cultures have more than one trait, which makes them complex
Cultural Landscape The human imprint on the landscape Popular culture (from globalization) can change the landscape
Cultural Landscape Convergence Causes a place to lose uniqueness Referred to as placelessness Happens due to globalization making places look the same
Globalization How popular culture spreads around the world Results: 1: Greater interaction between countries 2: Deepen our relationships 3: Interdependence - starts as positive but turns negative quickly
