There are different types of cultures across the world and each culture has its unique essence. Whiledefining the term 'culture', there are several elements that together constitute as the culture of a particularregion or the culture of particular people. We fail to understand what the elements of a culture are, but wecan learn more by looking through these: Language: The various languages are essentially an important part of the culture. Norms: Every society or every civilization has a set of norms, which are an inseparable part, and animportant element of the culture. This can include the folkways, mores, taboos and rituals in a culture. Values: The social values of a particular civilization are also considered as an element of the culture. Thevalues of a culture often refer to the things to be achieved or the things, which are considered of greatworth or value in a particular culture. Religion and Beliefs: The religion and the beliefs of the people in a civilization play an important role inshaping up of the culture as well. Social Collectives: Social collectives refer to the social groups, organizations, communities, institutions,classes, and societies, which are considered as symbolic social constructions. Status and Role in Society: A status or a social role is nothing but a slot or position within a group orsociety, which gives an overall idea of the social structure and hence is an important element of culture.This can also include traditional gender-based or age-based roles. Cultural Integration: This includes the degree of harmony or integration within the various elements ofculture. This can include elements like sub-cultures, local cultures and the difference between historicaland cultural traditions.http://www.buzzle.com/articles/what-are-the-elements-of-culture.html 7.
