and beliefs which shape political behaviour.
A country's political culture consists of the
citizenry's collective attitudes to the political
system and their role in it
- Homogeneity
- The view that people within a
country share certain key values -
a sense of togetherness that
transcends that which divides
them
- Developments such as the expansion
of immigration since the 1960's and
the rise of Scottish and Welsh
nationalism suggests that the UK is
more multicultural than homogeneic

an elite that is seen as 'born
to rule' - a natural willingness
to accept an ingrained

hierarchy
