<br/><br/> The conventional resources for economic growth and development have been coal, petroleum, minerals, and so on. Over time, however, the  importance and use of these resources has declined with technological advances in society. While at the beginning of the 18th century, coal and  iron ore were viewed as crucial resources, petroleum became the new resource in the late 19th and 20th centuries. As we closely examine the  factors linked to economic growth and development, we find that cultural  diversity as a latent resource has hardly figured in growth and  development literature. – Reproduced <br/><br/>https://journals.tiss.edu/ijsw/index.php/ijsw/article/view/947<br/>
