    "abstract": "We study the evolution of the Axelrod model for cultural diversity. We\nconsider a simple version of the model in which each individual is\ncharacterized by two features, each of which can assume q possibilities. Within\na mean-field description, we find a transition at a critical value q_c between\nan active state of diversity and a frozen state. For q just below q_c, the\ndensity of active links between interaction partners is non-monotonic in time\nand the asymptotic approach to the steady state is controlled by a time scale\nthat diverges as (q-q_c)^{-1/2}.",
