Cyber-Diplomacy: Managing Foreign Policy in the Twenty-First Century, Evan H. Potter, ed., Montreal & Kingston: McGill-Queen's University Press, 2002, xii, 208.We are repeatedly told that we live in a revolutionary age, a time in which dramatic new developments in information and communication technologies (ICTs) will fundamentally transform the ways in which we live and work. Even the collapse of the dot.com bubble in 2000 has not much dampened the spirits of the techno-utopians. Given these often-exaggerated claims, I approached Cyber-Diplomacy with some trepidation, as the editor cites Marshall McLuhan's ‘global village’ in the first line of his introduction, and speaks of an information revolution in his second paragraph. However, as I pressed on in the text I was very pleasantly surprised to find that the editor and authors of this short volume are well aware of the dangers of overstatement in relation to ICTs, and work very hard throughout to avoid techno-utopianism. Instead, the authors attempt to take a fairly sober look at “how diplomacy is adapting to the new global information order” (7).

Education is inextricably linked to the different stages of the history of mankind. In this sense, today's education is strongly influenced, by the digital age, by the great advance of information and communication technologies, by the global village and the neoliberal economic model. This forces us to assume the challenge that the incorporation of technology imposes on the formative processes in the classroom. The present work has as objective, to determine the use of mobile devices of students of the engineering careers in the Technological of Superior Studies of Jilotepec in the processes of learning and to idendificar those processes that foment their use. The study is based on the application of a survey in which the different engineering careers were considered, number of participating students by gender, age, use of equipment, use of mobile devices to read or study, time of use of mobile to study or consult subjects related to the different subjects as well as the type of networks consulted on the Internet. Finally, it shows the technological trend with the generation 5G and its application in the teaching and learning process in the very near future.

Globalization has opened up the economy at a very high speed, as a result of that information technology has opened the sphere a global village and have facilitated global communications network that transcends national boundaries. Due to ICT there is a dramatic change in the society. Handicraft industry is the second largest industry which provides employment to rural and underemployed agricultural laborers. But large group of artisans are in the unorganized sectors like handicraft and cottage industry and these handicraft artisans are in inaccessible area of rural India. Majority of artisans are still bounded to traditional way of living so they are not enjoying the modern world benefits and adopted to modern scenario. These artisans are not access to available technology or participation and to promote for the contribution of societies development and these artisans are less engaged with Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) than common man. Information and Communication Technologies are for everyone and handicraft artisans should equally benefit to the advantages offered by the technology to the products and processes. Almost in all the States of the India, people are expert in producing handicraft items traditionally. The worth of Indian handicrafts in the international market was realized when the exports crossed Rs. 300,274.12 crores in 2012-13. The handicrafts sector has made considerable contribution to the Indian economy through exports. ICT brings success to marketing and export activities and production part of the craft. But knowledge on marketing technology was poor for artisans. So, an attempt has been made in this paper to bring out the problems and opportunities of artisans in the handicraft industry with the usage of ICT, and the opportunity for exporting to foreign countries and to help artisans improving their standard of living and thus the economy.

Information And Communication

The article deals with the concept of a “global village” in the aspect of communication. In the first part of the article this concept is introduced without undertaking any judgments and following a position of a judicial researcher. In the second part the conditions of the possibility of a “global village”, regarding the crucial differences of globality and villagicity and their incompatibility, are questioned. A thought is raised whether M. McLuhan's “global village”, which is constituted by contemporary information and communication technologies and treated as new media, should be assessed as a “global city”, attaching to globality some essentially new and unaccustomed meanings, inspired by the traditional socio‐cultural structural transformations to the networkful nonstructural systems. „Globaliojo kaimo“ lokalumas komunikaciniu aspektu: pro et contra M. Mcluhanui Santrauka Straipsnyje komunikaciniu aspektu tiriama M. McLuhano „globaliojo kaimo“ samprata. Pirmoje jo dalyje ši samprata pristatoma nesiimant jokių jos vertinimų ir laikantis bešališkos tyrėjo pozicijos. Antroje straipsnio dalyje kvestionuojamos „globaliojo kaimo“ galimybės sąlygos dėl esminių globalumo ir kaimiškumo skirtumų bei jų tarpusavio nesuderinamumo. Išsakoma mintis, kad McLuhano įžvelgiamas „globalusis kaimas“, kurį jo mąstymo perspektyvoje steigia dabartinės informacijos ir komunikacijos technologijos, traktuojamos kaip naujosios medijos, turėtų būti traktuojamas kaip „globalusis didmiestis“, globalumui suteikiant iš esmės naujų ir neįprastų konotacijų, inspiruotų tradicinių sociokultūrinių struktūrų transformacijų į tam tikras tinkliškas bestruktūres sistemas.

The sample of this research was three classes of first grade students of English Department of Unswagati. The instrument of this research was questionnaire sheet. Data from questionnaire sheet was analyzed based on the frequency students’ answers and then was calculated and interpreted into percentages. The result shows WhatsApp Messenger attracts the students interest and also the students have positive responses towards the using ofWhatsAppMessenger.
