Orphan date September 2008 Cultural framework is a term used in social science to describe tradition s, value system s, Mythology myths and symbol s that are common in a given society . A given society may have multiple cultural frameworks for example, United States society has different cultural frameworks for its white and African America populations . Usually cultural frameworks are mixed as certain individuals or entire groups can be familiar with many cultural frameworks. There is an important relation between cultural frameworks and ideologies, as most successful ideologies are closely connected to cultural frameworks of societies they spread in. Cultural framework should not, however, be confused with ideology , as those concepts are separate. For example in Nazi Germany , Nazism was an ideology , while religious beliefs, patriotism and traditions dating back to Germanic tribes Germanic and Frankish tribes were part of the German cultural framework.
