Penni,

"Wow that's just like what happened in Europe when..."

So are we talking analogs here?

Like:

Tulip Mania in Holland and what I believe I've heard financial commentators refer to as the same phenomena in today's stock market?

The internet revolution and the Industrial Revolution? The IR began in Europe, didn't it?

Surely there was some political scandal in Europe or SA that is an analog to Zipper Gate.

(Would they have discussed these kinds of events in Geography?)

Or how the merging of hip-hop or grunge or . . . into America's popular musical mainstream parallels the evolution of certain European musical styles (Romanticism, Impressionism, . . .)?

Fashion . . .

Art . . .

Analogous connections exist relating to prejudice against specific groups here and abroad.

Population patterns?

There is an architechtural parallel with the tallest buildings in our cities being odes to commerce much as European cathedrals ( the tallest buildings in pre-20th century Europe) were odes to religion.
. . .the inversion of cultural priorities.

Any help?
