The question of what makes a person, or a society develop has been asked countless of times. There are many factors that can influence this. This research will seek to explore whether culture matters in relation to a person’s personal development. The present study interviewed twelve Afghan immigrants living in Sweden and investigated whether they felt like culture adjustment was necessary in order for them to develop. The study is using an abductive approach as the respondents' answers are analyzed in firsthand while the theoretical framework is used as a guidance throughout the research. Lawrence E. Harrisons theory was conducted as the theoretical framework. Harrison was a professor who believed that culture affects a person's ability to develop (Harrison, 2000, p. 2). This research contributed to the prevailing literature by analyzing this topic from a bottom-up perspective by interviewing the Afghan immigrants and presenting their perspectives. Further research regarding this topic would be appreciated as the research gap still needs research to be filled. The findings of this study suggest that the twelve Afghan immigrants do not feel like a person has to adapt to Swedish culture to develop. By rather mixing different cultures and being openminded they feel has helped them to develop. Further, Harrison is arguably too categorical, hence, it is not feasible to categorize people by culture because development is different from person to person.
