Memetics is a theoretical framework that describes the way ideas, behaviors, and cultural phenomena spread within a society, analogous to the biological concept of genetics. The term "meme," which originates from Richard Dawkins' 1976 book "The Selfish Gene," refers to any unit of cultural transmission or imitation, such as an idea, song, fashion trend, or religious belief.
