Popis: | This study explores how sociocultural change and individual development are mediated by activities in a process complicated by temporal transitions in environment and in the activity which leads, or is psychologically primary. Based on research among rural Nepali high school students becoming shopkeepers and among rural shopkeepers attending adult education, the author suggests a cultural‐historical alternative to transfer in understanding the continuity and discontinuity of personal knowledge across situations and over time. |
