11 Danish Political Culture: Re. Housing Sub-Cultures Groups 1, 2 and 4 constitute the traditional political culture, also found in the labour movement, Groups 3 and 6 constitute a user-oriented political culture based on functional participation in single issues; whereas group 7 contains the very active political elite.

Acquisition of values, beliefs, and knowledge about the political system on both the individual and community level 3. Cultural transmission across generations- the introduction of new generations to the beliefs and values of the old

33 Philippine Military Academy cadets-- good examples of the workings of cultural transmission

34 Socialization

35 The Way Things Are Learned  May be cognitive, evaluative or emotional  Vague Patriotic image- eg.
