Eating and Remembering Past Cultural Achievements

Abstract

People in poor countries are slow to develop because their cultures do not develop as fast as the cultures of developed countries . . . . The cultures of the poor countries do not change fast because they do not assimilate and use new ideas and new ways from other cultures that will help to improve their way of life as fast as possible. —Text from 2009 ghanaian social studies textbook, discussed by rock (2018)
