Understanding Culture, Society and Politics
Context, Content, Processes and Consequences of
Socialization
Aristotle a Greek philosopher said, “Man is by nature a
social animal; an Individual who is unsocial naturally and
not accidentally is either beneath our notice or
more than human. Society is something that precedes
the individual. “Man cannot live alone.”
SOCIALIZATION- the process of learning to behave in a
way that is acceptable to society
 Socialization is the process of internalizing the norms and ideologies
of society.
 Socialization encompasses both learning and teaching and is thus
"the means by which social and cultural continuity are attained".
 Socialization is strongly connected to developmental psychology. It
is a continuing process whereby an individual acquires a personal
identity and learns the norms, values, behavior, and social skills
appropriate to his or her social position.
 It is a learning process that begins shortly after birth.
 Socialization is a process that introduces people to social norms and
customs.
 Through socialization, we learn how to perceive our world, gain a
sense of our own identity, and discover how to interact appropriately
with other. It makes an individual more confident.
FIVE TYPES/STAGES OF SOCIALIZATION
1. Primary socialization - takes place from birth
through adolescence; occurs early in a child's life and
is primarily due to the influence of family and close
friends
2. Secondary socialization - occurs throughout our lives
as we encounter groups and situations that were not
part of our primary socialization experience.
3. Professional or Developmental Socialization - a type
of socialization which involves a learning process
wherein the focus in on developing our social skills;
occurs during adulthood.
4. Anticipatory socialization - the process facilitated by
social interactions, in which non-group-members
learn to take on the values and standards of groups
that they aspire to join, so as to ease their entry into
the group and help them interact competently once
they have been accepted by it.
5. Re-Socialization - process of learning a new way of
life
IDENTITY- - the distinguishing character or personality of
an individual.
The definition of identity is who you are, the way you
think about yourself, the way you are viewed by the
world and the characteristics that define you.
 Socialization helps in building one’s identity.
 Three factors that are important in shaping one's personal identity
include, but are not limited to, their culture, their memories, and
their societal labels.
