Globalization: Making the World Smaller
As leading multinationals establish a presence in more and more countries, telecommunications
companies are beginning to resolve themselves into a few global operators, each with an armful
of affiliates or associates around the world.
There is a cluster of compelling reasons for the trend. Linking up with international operators
can provide a source of funds for a local company. It can make new technology available or help
a company gain international clients. (…)
According to Fernando Xavier Ferreira of Telebras: “Eventually, only worldwide
telecommunications consortiums will be able to provide worldwide service. In order to ensure
access to local markets, these consortiums will try to form local alliances.”
So the process of globalization rolls on, made possible by Latin America’s wave of competition
and privatization. (…) “People are demanding to be able to communicate while they’re on the
move, to compute while they’re on the move. It’s a need global companies can satisfy best.”

His sickness has made it hard for James Black to find a job, a place to live or friends to talk to. At
33, Black would like to work. He would like to live in an apartment. He would like to ease his
loneliness.
He is a slight, silent man, with large, watchful eyes, who makes himself easy to ignore. He
prefers the edges of a group, not its center. He lets others speak while he is still and quiet.
His shyness seems to be James Black’s only defense. A victim of a schizophrenic personality

million people in the United States are chronically mentally ill, more than 30,000 of them in South
Florida.
