Social context
The social context refers to the factors that influence how people live in a particular community (or country). This would include the structure of the family, attitudes towards sex, class structure, the political climate and the laws that regulate how we go about our lives.
For example, in Australian society young people now choose to live in the family home much longer. This is a result of our economic context (the cost of living is high and people cannot afford to move out), but also because of our social context, whereby parents have a more relaxed attitude toward their children and their sexual and social lives.
