Friedman's "The World Is Flat" - Compare/Contrast Of Perspective

Number of Pages 3

3 pages in length. Friedman's primary perspective in The World is Flat is to bring the notion of globalization into a new and more accepted light than what has heretofore been achieved. For many, globalization equates to the sole objective of financial gain at the direct expense of social and cultural institutions, yet Friedman asserts this is simply not true. The extent to which information systems have virtually transformed the way contemporary society conducts every level of business is both grand and far-reaching; that these same information systems – which single-handedly support the daily operations of entire industries – are an integral component to the overall importance of globalization is wholly dependent upon whether one follows or rejects Friedman's opinion.
