Cultural adaptation to environmental change versus stability
Behavioral and Brain Sciences 36 (5):485-486 (2013)
Abstract
The target article provides an intermediate account of culture and freedom that is conceived to be curvilinear by treating economic development not as an adaptive outcome in response to climate but as a cause of culture parallel to climate. We argue that the extent of environmental variability, including climatic variability, affects cultural adaptation.Author's Profile
