Family Values Definition
Several well-known online dictionaries define “family values” as the following:
- “the moral and ethical principles traditionally upheld and passed on within a family, as fidelity, honesty, truth, and faith.”[3]
- “values especially of a traditional or conservative kind which are held to promote the sound functioning of the family and to strengthen the fabric of society.”[4]
- “values held to be traditionally taught or reinforced within a family, such as those of high moral standards and discipline.”[5]
In politics
Familialism or familism is the ideology that puts priority on family and family values.[6] Familialism advocates for a welfare system where families, rather than the government, take responsibility for the care of their members.[6]
In the United States, the banner of family values has been used by social conservatives to express opposition to abortion, feminism, pornography, comprehensive sex education, divorce, homosexuality, same-sex marriage, civil unions, secularism, and atheism.[7] American conservative groups have made inroads promoting these policies in Africa since the early 2000s, describing them as African family values.[8]
