True or False?

The researchers in Habits of the Heart thought that the individualism of modern life was a benefit to communities of memory.

False

Explanation:

The scholars understood that individualism created a problem that could be solved through the cultivation of communities of memory. They found that individualism was impoverishing the American language in a way that became more and more challenging for people to talk about commitment. Communities of memory where traces of second languages could be preserved were believed to be capable of transforming the first language of individualism based on the traditions of biblical religion and civic republicanism.
