Abstract
Continuities in values and institutions in themselves reveal nothing about the direction of social change, although they may provide some indication of its speed. The significance of traditional values and institutions lies in their interaction with new elements. To understand social change it is therefore upon the new elements that one must focus. To do otherwise is like running backwards, being able to see where one has come from but not where one is going.
