CHAPTER

Cultural Contrasts and the Concept of Authority

The chapter explores the differences in vision and direction in various countries like Austin, Dubai, Miami, Singapore, El Salvador, and Saudi Arabia.

The discussion also uncovers the misconception of adults having all the answers, the influence of authority figures, and the high vaccine uptake in the UK linked back to the concept of inherited trust from the monarchy.
