Globalization hasn't only changed the way we do business: it's had an impact on what we consider to be beautiful, too. Just as many lament the McDonalds and Starbucks on every corner, where once there might have been a local restaurant, so too has what people wear become homogenized in our Global Village. Love Levi's? Buy them practically anywhere. Want a pair of New Balance shoes in Eastern Europe? There's a specialty shop for that.全球化并非只改变了我们的商业行为:它还影响了我们的审美观点。就像很多人慨叹世界每个角落都充斥着麦当劳和星巴克,而那些地方本来可能曾经有一个本地小餐馆。人们的穿衣方式也一样,在我们的地球村里越来越趋同。你喜欢李维斯(Levi's)?随便去哪里买就行了。想在东欧买一双新百伦(New Balance)的鞋?那里就有你想找的专卖店。
Before mass communication, and television in particular, there used to be quite a difference in what we thought was attractive, as this list of postcards from 1900-1910, collected by user PostMan on flickr, shows. Which photo is the most surprising?在有多媒体之前,特别是电视出现之前,人们对“魅力”的看法千差万变。以下是flickr用户PostMan收集的一些1900-1910年的明信片,从这些明信片中,我们可以清楚地看出这一点。那么哪张明信片最让你惊讶呢?
