Globalization

Sherry Turkle is a professor at MIT, an Ivy league school, teaching social sciences. Her article called, "Can You Hear Me Now?" is one that introduces globalization in the "networking" sense. Turkle's argument throughout her article is that so much globalization could lead to a bad thing, or not to much of a good thing. Either way networking may keep everyone in touch with each other BUT it doesn't provide the person to person contact that most so desperately need. We have in general lost a lot of interaction that has made us friendly or personable.
The times have changed in major ways producing different forms of communication. It has enabled people to communicate with a electronic device such as a Mobile and a computer by using a instant messenger, or an email. that takes a bit longer then the other.
Turkle presents the argument that via the cellular phone that kids learned personal responsibility. She says now that the children are learning it later in life and it is thanks to our mobile device. We are losing it because the kids aren't making their decisions themselves but the parents are. Making it harder on the children to develop refined skills.
