    Traditionally wine was seen as a “pretentious” product in U.S, but by the late 1990’s to early 2000’s, wine started to become a popular social drink for the masses. In addition, the market became more adventurous, demanding unusual “undervalued” wines instead of the traditional wines such as Chardonnay. The adventurousness was driven by “Generation X” and created a significant opportunity for wineries to meet this new unconventional demand. As the industry is still currently in its growth stage, the industry attractiveness is high. Wine is a relatively high margin product, and there is increasing demand domestically and internationally. Because of…

    Alexander Edmonds explores the different characteristics of beauty that have allowed Brazil to emerge as a global leader in plastic surgery in his ethnography, Pretty Modern. Throughout it, Edmonds discusses Brazilians’ construction of beauty and the shifting views of treatment and enhancement, giving the largest voice to women. Drawing from conversations with people of varied socialite circles, he investigates the structural, cultural, psychological, and historical factors that influence beauty such as the implications of sensuality that are embedded in plastic surgery. By the end of his ethnography, however, the neglected viewpoint within this realm of beauty is that of those who do not want to receive surgery. Through my own brief discussions…

    Hans Staden became a representational go-between due to a necessity to remain alive. He was lucky in that he attained all the skills necessary to perform this role before he was even aware that being multilingual and understanding multiple cultural practises would come to save his life. Of German descent, he traveled to Portugal and then Spain to seek out adventure, new cultures, status and wealth in the New World. Writing about the “savages” in his first hand account of his experience in the captivity of the Tupinamba, Staden describes a world alien to that of Europe, but one in to which he integrated and adapted in order to survive. However, it is controversial to assume that Staden was entirely objective in his retelling of events. Although…
