culture integration and terms week 7th

Cultural integration is when individuals from one culture adopt practices from another culture without diminishing their own. This has also been called globalization due to the examples of cultural integration that exist.

Cultural evolution is an evolutionary theory of social change. It follows from the definition of culture as "information capable of affecting individuals' behavior that they acquire from other members of their species through teaching, imitation and other forms of social transmission"

Cultural pluralism is a term used when smaller groups within a larger society maintain their unique cultural identities, whereby their values and practices are accepted by the dominant culture, provided such are consistent with the laws and values of the wider society
