Read the following paragraph and answer questions from 46to 50:
The main problem of theory-development in geography is not a failure to formalize theory. It is, rather, a weak understanding of the role of theory in explanation and a failure to make verbal statements in ways which are ‘explanatory’ in some logically consistent way. This is not to say that these verbal statements are inherently uninteresting. Indeed they are not. Consider the following statement by Sauer (1963, 359):
The whole task of human geography, therefore, is nothing less than comparative study of are ally localized cultures … But culture is the learned and conventionalized activity of a group that occupies an area. A culture trait or complex originates at a certain time in a particular locality. It gains acceptance – that is, is learned by a group – and is communicated outward, or diffuses, until it encounters sufficient resistance, as from unsuitable physical conditions, from alternative traits, or from disparity of culture level.
This statement is part a ‘directive’ for geographic study, it is part an explanation schema for understanding are ally localized cultures, it is part a description of what happens. But all three notions are intertwined and it is not clear whether Sauer is proposing a theory or whether he is merely describing an average process. Yet the statement is surely a stimulating one and one that manages to sum up intuitively in very short space much of the activity of the human geographer. We could well pay more attention to statements of this type and attempt to show how they may function in an explanatory way.
