Answer:

Cultural imperialism.

Step-by-step explanation:

Cultural imperialism refers to the maintenance of unequal relationships between different civilizations or cultures favoring the more powerful one. In this case, Kurt things that because the Amish village doesen't have radios, they are missing many things. What's behind that is that he thinks they are inferior, in some way, because they don't have that technological advance. Imperialism refers to promoting or imposing a culture, which is what Kurt is, maybe ignorantly, trying to do.
