THE GLOBAL VILLAGE More and more often, the term global village is used to describe the world

and its people. In most villages, everyone knows everyone else and the people face the same kinds of problems. So how can the world be a village when it is home to more than six billion people? Political and technological changes in the past century have made the global village possible. POLITICAL CHANGES The years following World War II seemed to promise peace. In fact, in 1945, the United Nations was founded to help countries resolve disputes peacefully. However, this promise was soon broken by the Cold War distrust and tension between the United States and the Soviet Union. These two superpowers engaged in an arms race, spending huge amounts of money on weapons. The other nations of the world were divided into two "sides", and the world was frozen in a state of hostility. The Cold War finally ended and the political climate changed between 1989 and 1991, when the governments of the Soviet Union and several Eastern European countries collapsed. The end of Cold War tension made the global village more politically possible by opening new channels of communication between nations. TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGES Technologically the greatest contributor to the global village is the microchip - an electronic circuit on a tiny chip. The evolution of the microchip had made modern satellites and supercomputers possible. These forms of high-tech communications allow news and ideas to travel quickly across the globe, making people more aware of their neighbors around the world in dramatic new ways. Through the Internet, we can get information from computers and carry on electronic conversations with people everywhere. Through television programs transmitted by satellite, we are exposed to many cultures. The development of the global village will almost certainly continue into the future. Not only is this probable, but the challenges that the world faces- for example, conflicts among peoples, pollution, and population growth - will make it necessary. LA ALDEA GLOBAL Ms y ms a menudo, el perodo pueblo global es usado para describir el mundo y sus personas. En la mayora de los pueblos, todos conocen a todos los dems y las personas enfrentan las mismas clases de problemas. As que cmo puede ser un pueblo cuando

est en casa a ms de seis mil millones personas el mundo? Los cambios polticos y tecnolgicos en el siglo anterior han hecho la aldea global posible. CAMBIOS POLTICOS Los aos siguientes la Segunda Guerra Mundial parece prometer la paz. A decir verdad, en 1945, las Naciones Unidas fueron fundadas para ayudar pases resolver las disputas tranquilamente. Sin embargo, esta promesa fue rota por la desconfianza de Guerra Fra y la tensin pronto entre los Estados Unidos y la Unin Sovitica. Estas dos superpotencias participaron en una carrera de armamento, pasando las cantidades enormes de dinero en armas. Otras naciones del mundo fueron divididas en dos "Equipos", y el mundo fue congelado en un estado de la hostilidad.

La Guerra Fra termin definitivamente y el clima poltico cambi entre 1989 y 1991, cuando los gobiernos de la Unin Sovitica y algunos pases de Europa Oriental se desplomaron. El final de la tensin de Guerra Fra hizo la aldea global ms polticamente posible abriendo los nuevos canales de la comunicacin entre naciones.

CAMBIOS TECNOLGICOS Tecnolgicamente el colaborador ms grande para la aldea global es el microchip - un circuito electrnico sobre un chip diminuto. La evolucin del microchip haba hecho satlites modernos y supercomputadoras posibles. Estas formas de las comunicaciones de alta tecnologa permiten que noticias e ideas se desplacen rpidamente al otro lado de the globe, haciendo a las personas ms conscientes de sus vecinos alrededor del mundo en las nuevas maneras dramticas. A travs de la Internet, podemos conseguir informacin de computadoras y llevar las conversaciones electrnicas con las personas por todos lados. A travs de programas de televisin transmitidos por satlite, somos expuestos a muchas culturas.

El desarrollo de la aldea global continuar casi indudablemente en el futuro. No slo esto es probable, pero los desafos que el mundo enfrenta - por ejemplo, los conflictos entre pueblos, la contaminacin, y el crecimiento de poblacin - lo harn necesario.

What is the United Nations? Qu son las Naciones Unidas?

La ONU se cre en 1945. Cuando se acab la II Guerra Mundial, los polticos se dieron cuenta de que aquello no poda volver a suceder: haba sido el mayor desastre de la historia de la humanidad. Por ello, crearon la ONU, una organizacin que se encargara de vigilar la paz, el desarrollo, la justicia y los derechos humanos en todo el mundo.

Los primeros pases miembros, es decir, las primeras naciones en formar parte de esta organizacin, fueron la Unin Sovitica (hoy Rusia), China, Reino Unido y Estados Unidos. Enseguida se apuntaron cincuenta pases ms, y ahora son ya casi doscientos. The UN was created in 1945. When WWII ended, the politicians realized that this could not happen again: it was the greatest disaster in the history of mankind. Therefore, they created the UN, an organization that would monitor the peace, development, justice and human rights worldwide. The first member countries, namely the first nations to join this organization, were the Soviet Union (now Russia), China, UK and USA. Then signed up more than fifty countries, and are now almost two hundred. What was the Cold War? Qu era la Guerra Fra? Disputa que enfrent despus de 1945 a Estados Unidos y sus aliados, de un lado, y al grupo de naciones lideradas por la Unin de Repblicas Socialistas Soviticas (URSS), del otro. No se produjo un conflicto militar directo entre ambas superpotencias, pero surgieron intensas luchas econmicas y diplomticas. Los distintos intereses condujeron a una sospecha y hostilidad mutuas enmarcadas en una rivalidad ideolgica en aumento. Dispute faced after 1945 the United States and its allies on one side, and the group of nations led by the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR) on the other. There was a direct military conflict between superpowers, but there were intense economic and diplomatic struggles. Different interests led to mutual suspicion and hostility embedded in a growing ideological rivalry. Who were the superpowers? Quines eran las superpotencias? The United States and the Soviet Union

What was the arms race? Qu era la carrera de armamento?

La carrera armamentsta que acompa a la Guerra fra adquiri unas dimensiones colosales cuando Estados Unidos prob la primera bomba de hidrgeno en 1952 y la Unin Sovitica hizo lo mismo seis meses despus. Desde ese momento, ambas naciones continuaron con las pruebas de sus armas nucleares y se dedicaron a perfeccionar los medios de transporte y lanzamiento de dichas armas. Se fabricaron nuevos bombarderos de largo alcance y desde 1957 las dos potencias contaron con misiles balsticos intercontinentales.

The arms race that accompanied the Cold War became a colossal when the U.S. tested the first hydrogen bomb in 1952 and the Soviet Union did the same six months later. Since then, both nations continued testing nuclear weapons and set about perfecting the means of transport and deployment of such weapons. It produced new long-range bombers and since 1957 the two powers with ICBMs counted. What is a microchip? Qu es un microchip? La invencin del microchip permiti reducir el tamao de los ordenadores: primero fue posible colocarlos encima de la mesa y, ms tarde, llevarlos en la mano. Los ordenadores sirven para almacenar archivos, hacer clculos matemticos, enviar y recibir correos electrnicos, navegar por Internet... The invention of the microchip allowed reducing the size of the order: First it was possible to put on the table and, later, take them in hand. Computers are used to store files, make mathematical calculations, to send and receive emails, surf the Internet... What are high-tech communications? Qu son las comunicaciones de alta tecnologa?

La evolucin del microchip hizo satlites modernos y supercomputadoras que permitieron que las noticias e ideas se desplacen rpidamente al otro lado del mundo, haciendo que las personas se comuniquen con otras en cualquier lugar del mundo a travs de la Internet y conseguir informacin.

The evolution of the microchip made modern satellites and supercomputers that allowed the news and ideas move quickly across the world, causing people to communicate with others anywhere in the world through the Internet and get information.
