Cultural dimensions shape political narratives by influencing how societies interpret events and interact with institutions. Cultural values, such as individualism versus collectivism, impact public sentiment regarding governance and policy. For instance, cultures with a strong emphasis on community may prioritize collective welfare and social justice, while more individualistic cultures may focus on personal freedoms and entrepreneurial spirit. These cultural frameworks contribute to the narratives politicians use to resonate with audiences, impacting potential coalitions and the overall political landscape within a society.
