Chapter 4: Folk and Popular Culture Geographers ask why differences in cultures exist and how social customs are related to the cultural landscape. Geographers look at culture as a group?s values, material artifacts, and political institutions. Culture can be distinguished from habit and custom: Habit- A repetitive act that one does. Custom- A repetitive act that a group does, performed to the extent that it becomes a characteristic of that group. Material Culture falls into two basic categories: Folk Culture- Traditions practiced by primarily a small group living in isolated rural areas. Popular Culture- Traditions found in large societies that share certain habits. Key Issue 1: Where do Folk and Popular Cultures Originate and Diffuse?

( All songs must be school appropriate.) Your play list is worth 50 points of your project. The items include: At least 5 American folk songs (10 points)

AP Human Geography Chapter 4 Outline Key Issues 3 and 4

8 Salloum 1 Key Issue 3: Why is Popular Culture Widely Distributed? Popular culture varies more in time than in place. Popular culture begins in one location, like folk culture, but diffuses rapidly across earth to locations with a variety of physical conditions. Rapid diffusion depends on a group of people having high level of economic development. Diffusion of Popular Housing, Clothing, and Food Some regional differences in food, clothing and shelter continue to persist in MDCs. Popular Housing Styles Housing built in the U.S. since the 1940s demonstrates how popular customs vary more in time than in place. Newer housing in the U.S. has been built to reflect changing fashion of houses. After WWII, most U.S. homes were built in modern style.
