It defines socialization and enculturation as the process of acquiring identity and learning necessary social skills through social interaction. It also defines norms as informal rules governing social behavior, and values as criteria people use to assess their lives and maintain social order. Roles are characteristic ways of behaving according to one's status or position in society. If citizens oppose these societal elements, it can lead to deviance from social norms, pressure to conform, or challenges to human dignity, rights, and the common good.
