Human Development

Paper Summary:

This paper examines the key principles related to the development of a new human culture in the new United States, one that was rooted in European tradition, yet sought modernization in the new world.

From the Paper:

"Human development has evolved over time to encompass a number of key perspectives involving culture, religion, and the surrounding environment. There are a number of key principles to consider in understanding the first inhabitants of American soil, who were led by their faith and their desire to make new lives for themselves in a foreign land. Prior knowledge of faith and religion created opportunities for individuals to become acclimated to their new environments, and to understand the challenges that lie ahead in the new land. The following discussion will identify the key issues related to the development of a new culture and environment in 18th Century America, as the introduction of existing traditions and customs were strongly influential in the development of a new American culture that emphasized faith and principles from the past."
