The problem discussed in this paper concerns the role of the educative process in maintaining cultural stability and promoting cultural change. The mechanisms by means of which African custom was transmitted, in Africa, in workable form from one generation to the next are first sketched. The question is then raised as to what institutions in New World Negro social behavior are to be regarded as having preserved their African characteristics because of the educational experiences of their carriers, and what aspects of this behavior can be thought of as the result of accommodation to European Patterns through the operation of the educational process
