There is agreement that the term refers to the consequences of two phenomena that, in combination, have resulted in what David Harvey calls the global \"compression of time and space\". The first phenomenon is technological changes in the processing and dissemination of information related to finance and production. The second is the international spread of the technical competence necessary to use these advances efficiently.\u003c\/sup\u003e\u003c\/sup\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe articles in this volume of \u003cb\u003eThe Annals\u003c\/b\u003e are presented to illuminate important dimensions of the globalization process.
