Social Institutions '* Asocial institution is a complex, integrated set of social norms organized around the preservation of a basic societal value. '* Sociologists agree that institutions arise and persist because of a definite felt need of the members of the society. While there is essential agreement on the general origin of institutions, sociologists have differed about the specific motivating factors. ‘+ Sumner and Keller maintained that institutions come into existence to satisfy vital interests of man. Ward believed that they arise because of social demand or social necessity, ‘+ Lewis H Morgan ascribed the basis of every institution to what he called a perpetual want. Primary Institution's '* Sociologists often reserve theterm “institution” to describe normative systems that operate in five basic areas of life, which may be designated as the primary institutions. (2) In determining Kinship; (2) in providing for the legitimate use of power; (3) in regulating the distribution of goods and services: (4) in transmitting knowledge from one generation to the next; and (5) in regulating our relation to the supernatural. In shorthand form, or as concepts, these five basic institutions are called the family, government, economy, education and religion.

Family ‘+ Inhuman society, family (from Latin: familia) is a group of people related either by consanguinity or affinity. ‘+The purpose of families is to maintain the well-being of its members and of society. Ideally, families would offer predictability, structure, and safety as members mature and participate in the community. In most societies, itis within families that children acquire socialization for life outside the family. Anthropologists generally classify most family organizations as matrifocal{a mother and her children); patrifocal (a father and his children); conjugal (a wife, her husband, and children, also called the nuclear family); avuncular (for example, a grandparent, a brother, his sister, and her children); or extended (parents and children co-reside with other members of one parent's family) ‘+ Members of the immadiate family may include spouses, parents, grandparents, brothers, sisters, sons, and daughters. Members of the extended family may include aunts, uncles, cousins, nephews, nieces, and siblings-in-law. Sometimes these are also considered members of the immediate family, depending on an individual's specific relationship with them, and the legal definition of "immediate family" varies.

Cantimbuhan St. Poblacion, Dasmarifias City Typesof Family Conjugal (nuclear) far ‘The term "nuciear family" is commonly used, especially in the United States of America, to refer to conjugal families. A "conjugal" family includes only the spouses and unmarried children who are not of age. Some sociologistsdistinguish between conjugal families (relatively independent of the kindred of the parents and of other families in general) and nuclear families (which maintain relatively close ties with their kindred). Other family structures - with (for example) blended parents, single parents, and domestic partnerships ~ have begun to challenge the normality of the nuclear family. Single-parent family ‘A single-parent family consists of one parent together with their children, where the parent is widowed, divorced (and not remarried), or never married. The parent may have sole custody of the children, or separated parents may have a shared-parenting arrangement where the children divide their time |possibly equally) between two different single-parent families or between one single-parent family and one blended family. ‘As compared to sole custody, physical, mental and social well-being of children may be improved by shared- parenting arrangements and by children having greater access to both parents, “The number of single-parent families have beenincreasing, and about half of all children in the United States will ive in a single-parent family at some point before they reach the age of 18.! Most single-parent families are headed by a mother, but the number of single-parent families headed by fathers is increasing. Matrifocal Family ‘A “matrifocal" family consists of a mother and her children. Generally, these children are her biological offspring, although adoption of children is a practice in nearly every society. ‘This kind of family occurs commonly where women have the resources to rear their children by themselves, or where men are more mobile than women. Extended Family ‘The term “extended family" Is also common, especially In the United States. This term has two distinct meanings: 1. It serves as a synonym of "consanguinal family" (consanguine means "of the same blood"). 2. In societies dominated by the conjugal family, it refers to "kindred" (an egocentric network of relatives that extends beyond the domestic group) who do not belong to the conjugal family, ‘These types refer to ideal or normative structures found in particular societies. Any society will exhibit some variation in the actual composition and conception of families. Family of Choice + The term family of choice, also sometimes referred to as "chosen family" or "found family", is common within the LGBT community, veterans, individuals who have suffered abuse, and those who have no contact with biological "parents". itrefers to the group of people in an individual's life that satisfies the typical role of family as a support system. Form No. BPM2-CME 20 F008 SOC 319 (Module 5) Revs Page 6 of 13, & PNTC COLLEGES Zone Ill, Lt. Cantimbuhan St. Poblacion, Dasmarifias City “The term differentiates between the "family of origin’ (the biological family or that in which people are raised] and those that actively assume that ideal role.The family of choice may or may not include some or all of the members of the family of origin. ‘This terminology stems from the fact that many LGBT individuals, upon coming out, face rejection or shame from the families they were raised in. The term family of choice is also used by individuals in the 12 step communities, who create close-knit "family" ties through the recovery process. ‘Asa family system, families of choice face unique issues. Without legal safeguards, family's of choice may struggle when medical, educational, or governmental institutions fail to recognize their legitimacy. ‘If members of the chosen family have been disowned by their family of origin, they may experience surrogate arief, displacing anger, loss, or anxious attachment onto their new family. Blended family The term blended family or stepfamily describes families with mixed parents: one or both parents remarried, bringing children of the former family into the new family. Monogamous Fa + Amonogamous family is based on a legal or social monogamy. In this case, an individual has only one (official) partner during their lifetime or at any one time, ‘This means that a person may not have several different legal spouses at the same time, as this is usually prohibited by bigamy laws, in jurisdictions that require monogamous marriages. Polygamous Family Polygamy is a marriage that includes more than two partners. When a man is married to more than one wife at a time, the relationship is called polygyny; and when a woman is married to more than one husband at a time, it is called polyandry. If 2 marriage includes multiple husbands and wives, it can be called polyamory, group of conjoint marriage Polygyny is a form of plural marriage, in which a man is allowed more than one wife + Inmodern countries that permit polygamy, polygyny is typically the only form permitted. Polygyny is practiced primarily (but not only) in parts of the Middle East and Africa; and is often associated with Islam, however, there are certain conditions in Islam that must be met to perform polygyny. + Polyandry is a form of marriage whereby a woman takes two or more husbands at the same time. Fraternal polyandry, where two or more brothers are married to the same wife, is a common form of polyandry. Degrees of Kinship ‘Kinship is the relation by the bond of blood, marriage and includes kindered ones. It represents one of the basic social institutions. Kinship is universal and in most societies plays a significant role in the socialization of individuals and the maintenance of group solidarity. A first-degree relative is one who shares S0% of your DNA through direct inheritance, such as a full sibling, parent or progeny. * Thereis another measure for the degree of relationship, which is determined by counting up generations to the first common ancestor and back down to the target individual, which is used for various genealogical and legal purposes.

Patrilineal + Patrilineality, also known as the male line or agnatic kinship, is 2 form of kinship system in which an individual's family membership derives from and is traced through his or her father's lineage. ‘It generally involves the inheritance of property, rights, names, or titles by persons related through male kin A patriline ("father line") is a person's father, and additional ancestors that are traced only through males. ‘One's patriline is thus a record of descent from a man in which the individuals in all intervening generations are male. + In cultural anthropology, a patrilineage is a consanguineal male and female kinship group, each of whose members is descended from the common ancestor through male forebears. ineal * Matrilineality is a form of kinship system in which an individual's family membership derives from and is traced through his or her mother's lineage. + It may also correlate with a societal system in which each person is identified with their matriline—their mother's lineage—and which can involve the inheritance of property and titles. + A matriline is aline of descent from a female ancestor to a descendant in which the individuals in all intervening generations are mothers ~ in other words, a "mother line". + Ina matrilineal descent system, an individual is considered to belong to the same descent group as her or his, mother. This matrilineal descant pattern is in contrasts to the more commen pattern of patrilineal descent pattem, 3. Bilateral Descent * steral descent is a form of kinship system in which an individual's family membership derives from and is traced through both the paternal and maternal sides. The relatives on the mother's side and father's side are equally important for emotional ties or for transfer of property or wealth. itis a family arrangement where descent and inheritance are passed equally through both parents. + Familias who use this system trace descent through both parents simultaneously and recognize multiple ancestors, but unlike with cognatic descent itis not used to form descent groups. * Traditionally, this is found among some groups in West ‘Africa, India, Australis, indonesia, Melanesia, Malaysia and Polynesia, Anthropologists believe that a tribal structure based on bilateral descent helps members live in extreme environments because it allows individuals to rely on two sets of families dispersed over a wide area Marriage ‘+ Also called matrimony or wedlock, is @ culturally recognized union between people, called spouses, that establishes rights and obligations between them, as well as between them and their children, and between them and their in-laws.
