It's a load of bs. Values- social,cultural and historical. It is basically what makes up a specific society's views and way of life. E.g in the Elizabethan era you had- social: male dominance, patriarchal figure; cultural: Christian values; historical:historically conservative. You will find they are all intertwined.
