Preferred term

global village  

Definition(s)

  • Global village was a term coined by Marshall McLuhan to describe the disappearance of temporal and geographical barriers to communication brought about by advances in information and communication technology. Today, the global village is used to describe one of the possible outcomes of the use of information and communication technology—a world of interconnected individuals using the World Wide Web to share information and ideas and to coordinate action.
