To understand why not, we have to step back and put the current period in a larger historical perspective.
要理解为什么并非如此(指代前文所说的为什么全球化不是文化的同化,也不是美国化),我们不得不退一步,以更为广阔的历史视角来等待我们当前的这个时代.
Although they are related, the long-term historical trends of globalization and modernization are not the same.
虽然全球化与工业化之间互相联系,但是从长远的历史趋势来看,二者不尽相同.
While modernization has produced some common traits, such as large cities, factories and mass communications, local cultures have by no means been erased.
尽管现代化的进程(在各国文化中)形成了众多同一的特点,例如大都市,工厂及大众传媒,但地方文化(特色)却没有被抹杀.
The appearance of similar institutions in response to similar problems is not surprising, but it does not lead to homogeneity.
针对相似的问题而建立了相似的体制并不意外,而相似的体制并不意味着同化.
In the first half of the 20th century, for example, there were some similarities among the industrial societies of Britain, Germany, America and Japan, but there were even more important differences.
例如,20世纪前半叶,在英国,德国,美国和日本这几个工业化国家中,存在着许多相同点,但是,更为突出的是它们之间的差异.
When China, India and Brazil complete their current processes of industrialization and modernization, we should not expect them to be exact copies of Japan, Germany or the United States.
在中国,印度和巴西完成了工业化和现代化进程之后,我们也不能预期它们是日本,德国或是美国的翻版.
