Appendix III: Samoan Civilization as It Is Today
Summary
In this appendix, Mead talks about how life in Samoa has changed since her original research. The Samoan civilization has been influences by the merging European ideas. These ideas seem to inject some progression into the Samoan culture. Some of the ideas include a government system for each village, religion influences, and education.
Discussion
I think the influences described in this appendix are the classic influences Europe can have on an evolving civilization. The adaptations seem to have made life a little easier. The European lifestyle is a very interesting one because it is very flexible.
