                         The Digital World Globalization and Digital Divide Its Whats Its About 

                                                                     

In this blog I am going explain what  the term Globalization and Digital Divide and.also I am going to describe what these terms mean in an digital culture aspect.  In addition I will  highlight the link between theses terms as one of the other has to happen for the other to occur like a process  .During my lecture and seminar classes I came across theses terms and I found it very interesting such as Digital Divide means refers to gap or the distance between people and the common access  digital information and digital technology for example access to computers etc some people have limited or completely no access at all around the Globe. Furthermore  Globalization which I am quite familiar with means essential means the process of how countries and societies    and cultures have came together through a international multi - network system of communication , transportation and trade .

First all  as you can see  Digital divide means certain are countries or societies more  equipped with digital technology than others such as for example an american teenager would naturally own and have access to computer. so the question myself is what causes this ? then I realized that Globalization plays a big role in this factor either in a goo way or in an bad way which leads to poverty. 

I done some research and I came across this book   Globalization and the Digital Divide By Kirk St. Amant and Bolande  Olaniran and according to this book it states '' The first step in addressing problems resulting from global digital divide is to improve understanding that is, organizations and individuals must understand what factors contribute to this global digital divide for them to address it effectively. This collection represents , coordinated actions needed to address such international problems effectively. This collection represents an initial step toward examining the global digital divide from the perspective of developing nations and the challenges their citizens face in today;s error of communication - driven globalization. The entries in this collection each represent different insights on the digital divide from the perspectives of developing nation - many of which have been overlooked in previous discussions of this topic.''

I fully agree with the opinion from this book on how to improve this digital divide problem.
