“Mores” refers to the customs, traditions, and moral values that are widely accepted and followed by a particular society or group. It encompasses the unwritten rules and norms that govern social behavior and shape the collective identity of a community.
Interesting fact: The term “mores” is derived from the Latin word “m?r?s,” which means “customs” or “habits.” It was first introduced into English in the late 19th century by American sociologist William Graham Sumner, who used it to describe the social norms and practices of different cultures.
