Right now, the world is changing — each country is striving to achieve its own sense of prosperity in a climate of intense competition. The process is novel, as it has surprisingly little resemblance to the way civilization worked only a few hundred years ago. During that time, each society had its own resources, its own customs, and its own solutions. Self-sufficiency was key to survival, and help was seldom available for those who were in trouble.
 
But advents in technology and ideology have since varied this convention significantly. We are now faced by a global society that not only allow us to work faster, more efficiently, and more accurately, but also poses questions about ethics, humanness, and justice. We have arrived at a time in human progress where the interactions among nations can have profound effects upon wellbeing both domestically and abroad. Citizens throughout the world must therefore acquaint themselves with these issues because the decisions that are made now will echo for years to come.
 
InterEcon - Globalisation and the Future of Society seeks to fulfill this need by providing background on globalisation in a simple, engaging, and diverse learning environment. This project presents a balanced overview of economic interactions and differences among nations and explores how such contrast can influence the world of tomorrow. But most importantly, this site demonstrates how much of the future will be influenced by the decisions of humanity at large. So as a citizen of the world, let your mind begin to explore the possibilities of true global economy!
