In the
recent years, peoples and nations have become increasingly concerned
with the development of process, as is manifested in cultures. Drawing
from the field observation of the indigenous weavers of India and Sri
Lanka, the study aims at describing how cultural heritage is used as a
tool for development, discussing what theories of culture and
development emerge from the oral heritage and calling attention to
planners and decision makers in government for action.
