이번주 주제는 uniforms 입니다.
<스크립트 요약>
What's the fascination we seem to have for uniforms?
Is there something about taking on a persona or professional role that can be liberating?
The police, and other emergency services, like the fire brigade, and ambulance service they need practical clothes to help them do their job.
People need to recognize them too, don’t they?
A uniform makes people stand out from crowd.
But uniform also allows you to fit in it shows you belong to a particular group or organization and people often enjoy that sense of community at work.
Talk about why wearing a uniform can also allow you to behave differently to the way you normally behave.
[Joe Moran, cultural historian]
It’s a role and a genre that you adopt and it’s kind of it’s something that’s not quite you. It’s kind of a persona that you can put on. In Germany they call it ‘maskenfreiheit’, which is the freedom conferred by masks.
There’s something about taking on what is very clearly a persona or professional role, that can be liberating, I think.
Joe Moran compares putting on a persona to putting on a mask.
And he says this can be very liberating.
But do you really think putting on a uniform liberates – or frees – us from the person we really are?
If you’re shy, for example, a uniform might feel liberating because it allows you to behave more confidently.
