As CONDEPHAAT is charged with formulating cultural policy, it is important to understand commonsense meanings of the term in order to be better able to reach the most diverse public possible. This is relatively easy to do because commonsense notions of culture are part of our own understandings of the concept. Could one of you please give me a commonsense definition of culture?

3. Answer any one of the followings in about 40-60 words. (2)

(a) Explain how conflict is a social process, taking the example from your village/ community?

Ans:

It is true indeed that conflict is but a social process, the reason being, in a conflict which takes place in a village or a community, not only a single person is involved in it....many people come together and try to solve the matter....anyone and everyone could be under suspicion!! Let's take an example of a theft in a village.   let's say that

the landlord's son has accused his neighbour of having stolen his cows...now there will be the gram panchayat to look up into the matter...gradually people will be questioned, witnesses will be summoned for and a first-hand account of all the events will be brought up.     so this is a social process as many people are engaged

and involved.There needs to be an active participation from all the villagers.

4. Answer any one of the following questions in about 100 to 150 words. (4)

(a) "Norms are indispensable part of our life". Discuss the statement with suitable examples from your daily life.

Ans:

There are norms characterizing fitting conduct for each social gathering. For instance, students, neighbors, and patients in a healing center are generally mindful of the standards overseeing conduct. Also, as the individual moves starting with one gathering then onto the next, their conduct changes in like manner. Norms provide order in the public eye.

"Societal norms" is fundamental to the steadiness of a nation. Without a general, shared comprehension of the norms and desires of society, there would be uproar, regardless of whether talking about traffic issues or criminal issues.

Most steadfast social orders are steady on the grounds that the majority of the general population in them do what is anticipated from them. In spite of the fact that there is some worry for results, a great many people "make the wisest decision" notwithstanding when there are no pessimistic outcomes for themselves. Changing societal norms is agonizing, however, it is important to advance or grow. The test is in how much change, how quickly, can be survived.

5. Answer any one of the following questions in about 100 - 150 words. (4)

(a) Explain how norms are one of the important bases of social structure?

Ans:

social structure is the patterned social arrangements in society that are both emergent from and determinant of the actions of individuals. Likewise, society is believed to be grouped into structurally-related groups or sets of roles, with different functions, meanings, or purposes. Examples of social structure include family, religion, law, economy, and class. It contrasts with "social system", which refers to the parent structure in which these various structures are embedded. Thus, social structures significantly influence larger systems, such as economic systems, legal systems, political systems, cultural systems, etc.

Since the 1920s, the term has been in general use in social science, especially as a variable whose sub-components needed to be distinguished in relationship to other sociological variables, as well as in academic literature, as result of the rising influence of structuralism. The concept of "social stratification", for instance, uses the idea of social structure to explain that most societies are separated into different strata (levels), guided (if only partially) by the underlying structures in the social system. It is also important in the modern study of organizations, as an organization's  structure may determine its flexibility, capacity to change, etc. In this sense, structure is an important issue for management.

On the macro scale, social structure pertains to the system of socioeconomic stratification (most notably the class structure), social institutions, or other patterned relations between large social groups. On the meso scale, it concerns the structure of social networks between individuals or organizations. On the micro scale, "social structure" includes the ways in which 'norms' shape the behavior of individuals within the social system. These scales are not always kept separate. For example, John Levi Martin has theorized that certain macro-scale structures are the emergent properties of micro-scale cultural institutions (i.e., "structure" resembles that used by anthropologist Claude Levi-Strauss). Likewise, in ethnography, a recent study describes how indigenous social structure in the Republic of Panama changed macro social structures and impeded a planned Panama Canal expansion. Marxist sociology has also historically mixed different meanings of social structure, though doing so by simply treating the cultural aspects of social structure as phenomenal of its economic ones.
