Dominant culture refers to the cultural practices, beliefs, and values that are most widely accepted and practiced within a society or group. It often sets the norms and standards that influence social behavior and shape societal structures. Dominant culture can marginalize or oppress other cultural groups that do not align with its values.
Ideology influences the values and beliefs that shape social policy, determining what issues are prioritized and how they are addressed.
