More and more often, the term global is used to describe the world and its
people. How can the world be a village, when it is home to about 6 billion people?
Technological changes in the past century have made the global village possible.
Technologically, the greatest contributor to the global village is the microchip -

an electronic circuit on a tiny chip. The microchip has made satellites and
computers possible. These forms of high-tech communications allow news and
ideas to travel quickly from country to country, making people aware of their
neighbours around the globe in dramatic new ways. Through the Internet, we can
21
get information from computers anywhere and carry on electronic conversations
with people everywhere. Through television programmes transmitted by satellite,
we are exposed to many cultures.
What will happen as we move into the 21st century and beyond? Almost
certainly the development of the global village will continue. Not only is this
possible, but the challenges that the world faces - for example, pollution,
population growth, and conflicts among peoples - will make it necessary.
