One Of The Basics Of A Good System Of Innovation Is Diversity. In Some Ways, The Stronger The Culture (national, Institutional, Generational, Or Other), The Less Likely It Is To Harbor Innovative Thinking.

It Can Be Simply A Matter Of Peoples Walking Around In Tacit Agreement And Full Comfort With The Status Quo.
