             as opposed to who we are not". Within these nations, political culture and socialization .
             emerge. The functioning of political institutions at least partially reflects the attitudes, .
             norms, and expectations of the citizenry . Public attitudes towards politics and their role .
             in the political system define a nations political culture. It is sometimes difficult to define .
             a culture due to the shift in views many citizens have towards certain policies. In .
             addition, experience affects the political culture of a nation. For example, imagine one .
             living in the city and knowing only a life of urban existence, and then migrating to a .
             more rural setting. Not only will the move affect their perception of urban vs. rural life, .
             but it will also be somewhat of a culture shock. This in turn reflects on the political .
             outlook and participation of that individual.
