Globalization and technology are changing are world and not only changing the way we view issues but even the types of issues we see. The world has shrunk and we communicate more with our brothers and sisters all around the world now more than ever. There is much speculation as to what the world in which we live will be like in 50 years.
The Independent Television service is now airing a show called Futurestates that shows an interpretation of what some people think our country will be like in the future.
50 years ago did we see this in television? Most sci-fi dealt with pioneering uncharted planets or welcoming aliens to earth. Concern was given to the triumphs of man and what could be done with technology to expand man’s empire.
Now, we are more environmentally conscious and more aware and familiar with the rest of the world that our curiosity is not so much sparked in the heavens anymore but in the people and places around us and how they will change.
