3-ring circus

Any society may organise its economic, ideological, and political functions in many different ways. The beliefs of the dominant group in a society, those with the most power, determine which goods will be produced and distributed and how, which ideas will be taught and how, and which rules will be made and how they are enforced in dominant institutions.  Only people who operate according to these beliefs will be successful in dominant institutions and organisations.
