The Surface Framework is the complete set of concepts and ideas that define the nature, scope, and purpose of an Institution and that are explicitly provided to participants. By contrast, the Hidden Framework is the institution's true, often spoken of only in private, purpose.

The conceptual framework of an institution may be overt and "on the surface" (Surface Framework or covert and hidden from view (Hidden Framework))

Because society's current set of institutions primarily services the needs of the Accumulating Class, most institutions have both a surface framework (the ideas and justifications taught to the masses) and a Hidden Framework, something typically not spoken of explicitly, at least to the general public. A teacher for example will teach that schools are there to create educated, hard-working, democracy-loving young adults. Teachers will not tell you (perhaps because they themselves do not understand, or perhaps because they have been led to believe in the moral rectitude of the current educational system) that schools also teach a Hidden Curriculum[1] designed to create a compliant and subservient working class.
