AP Human Geography
Unit 1 – Thinking Geographically
Topic 1.6
How does changing scale from regional to national affect our understanding of cultural differences?
It magnifies broader cultural patterns overshadowed by regional specificities.
Only regional scale is critical as culture is inherently a regional phenomenon.
National scale dilutes cultural diversity, making all regions appear homogeneous.
Changing scale does not influence our perception of cultural differences significantly.
