What Is a Patriarchal System? A patriarchal social system can be defined as a system where men are in authority over women in all aspects of society. In modern American culture and society, the idea of patriarchy is not as accepted or practiced as it once was decades ago.
The word is derived from Greek ÏÎ±ÏÏÎ¹Î¬ÏÏÎ·Ï (patriarchÄs), meaning chief or father of a family, a compound of ÏÎ±ÏÏÎ¹Î¬ (patria), meaning family, and á¼ÏÏÎµÎ¹Î½ (archein), meaning to rule. Originally, a patriarch was a man who exercised autocratic authority as a pater familias over an extended family. The system of such rule of families by senior males is termed patriarchy. Historically, a patriarch has often been the logical choice to act as ethnarch of the community identified with his religious confession within a state or empire of a different creed (such as Christians within the Ottoman Empire).
