About this listen
What unseen forces guide societies and shape our behavior? In this episode, we explore William Sumner's concept of "mores"—the powerful, unwritten customs born from basic human needs like hunger, fear, and vanity. Learn how habits evolve into societal norms, influencing everything from marriage to taboos, often without authority. With examples like slavery, cannibalism, and popular entertainment, we uncover how mores silently shape cultures, institutions, and history. Tune in to discover the hidden power of these invisible rules!
