kulturna evolucija

kulturna evolucija

Cultural evolution begins at the level of the individual, when the behavior of a person is reinforced by its technological effects. An inventor may discover a new way of making a wheel; a farmer finds a food crop that produces higher yields; and a teacher may find a novel way to teach reading. A culture is said to evolve when these innovations are adopted by the community.
