Hello!
Cash, inventory, and equipment are examples of assets.
1700s so it would be all of the above
I guess it depends on the person and situation?
Two reasons can be as follow:
1) Desire to protect folk culture. People have an innate desire to protect and carry on their folk culture and adoption of new culture may interfere with that vision.
2) Fear of change or outside influences. People might have a fear that the outside culture will influence them in many undesirable ways which can prevent the adoption.
