his article is about etiquette in the United States and Canada. For etiquette in Mexico, see Etiquette in Latin America.
Etiquette rules in the United States and Canada generally apply to all individuals, unlike cultures with more formal class structures, such as those with nobility and royalty.[1]
Both Canada and the United States have shared cultural and linguistic heritage originating in Europe, and as such some points of traditional European etiquette apply to both, especially in more formal settings; however, each have formed their own etiquettes as well.[citation needed]
Among the most prominent writers on North American etiquette are Meloise, Letitia Baldrige, Judith Martin, Emily Post, Elizabeth Post, Peggy Post, Gertrude Pringle, and Amy Vanderbilt.[citation needed]Judith Martin states that if one wishes to become an accepted member of any society or group, one "had better learn to practice its etiquette."[2]
Early North American etiquette books claimed that the manners and customs of the "Best Society" could be imitated by all,[3] although some authors lamented that the lower classes, meaning those "whose experience in life has been a hardening process," in fact treated the rules of etiquette with "contempt and ... a sneer."[4] Current etiquette books do not employ the concept of "best society," but rather define etiquette as a set of guidelines that "help steer our behavior as we move through our daily routines"[5] and that can help deal with "the pressures of modern life [which] make it all the more difficult to stay civil."[5] This change is reflected in the content of etiquette books; etiquette books published in the early 20th century contained detailed advice on the treatment of servants, the conducting of formal dinner parties, and the behavior of a debutante;[6] more modern books are likely to emphasize the importance of respecting people of all classes, races, and ethnic backgrounds.[7] Some books make a further distinction between etiquette and manners:
