"The growth and spread of civilization . . ." (1963)

From the June 1963 issue of the Socialist Standard
"The growth and spread of civilization has gone on with a serene indifference to racial lines. All groups who have had an opportunity to acquire civilization have not only acquired it but also added to its content. Conversely, no group has been able to develop a rich or complex culture when it was isolated from outside contacts."
Ralph Linton, The Study of Man
