Folk Culture vs. Popular Culture
Folk Culture Popular Culture
Practiced by small, homogenous groups living in isolated areas
Found in large, heterogeneous societies that share certain habits despite differences in other personal characteristics.
A group develops distinctive customs from experiencing local social and physical conditions in a given place.
Is more widespread than folk culture
Spreads through relocation diffusion (migration)
Spreads through hierarchical or contagious diffusion
Isolation from other cultures contains the spread of certain folk cultures.
Advances in technology and increased leisure time allow customs to spread rapidly.
Prevalent in areas still heavily reliant on agriculture as an economic base
Prevalent in the United States, Western Europe, and Japan
Often have anonymous hearths, or centers of innovation (& multiple hearths, originating independently in isolated locations
Hearth of innovation is identifiable– for example, we can trace the origins of jazz music in the U.S.

B/c of globalization, pop culture is becoming more dominant, threatening the survival of folk culture.
Folk culture provides a unique identity to each group who occupies a specific region of Earth. Disappearance of folk culture lead to less
diversity in the world, or a “uniform” cultural landscape
