Agreed. It is bound to hold back rather than push forward, sooner or 
later. Add to this the oppressive social rules, which in a way preserve 
the tradition and prevent the deeper decay from being seen. I think the 
examples of this mechanism at work can be found anywhere between the two 
poles.

Well, I don't think it can be answered unequivocally. For the reasons 
you mentioned, at least. I was just interested in the criteria and how 
they are chosen and used. So thanks for your contribution.

And what about HIGH civilisation? How would you define the qualities 
that make a civilisation high?

Best,
Anna.
