The impact of globalization on the goverenment - 0 views

  • globalization restrains governments by inducing increased budgetary pressure. As a consequence, governments shift their expenditures in favour of transfers and subsidies and away from capital expenditures. This expenditure shift is potentially enhanced by citizens’ preferences to be compensated for the risks of globalization (“compensation hypothesis”).

Here's What Google Does When the Government Wants Your Emails - 0 views

  •  
    This article is about how Google stresses that it does everything in its power to keep user data private when it's legally able to do so. This information has been a secret for a while. If a request passes this stage, Google then considers whether the request is overly broad in scope. If Google decides the request is indeed too broad, it either denies the request or looks to narrow it. Google's standards for handing over user data are stronger than those required by American law

the theory and experience of globalization - 0 views

  •  
    'Globalization' is commonly used as a shorthand way of describing the spread and connectedness of production, communication and technologies across the world. That spread has involved the interlacing of economic and cultural activity. Rather confusingly, 'globalization' is also used by some to refer to the efforts of the International Monetary Fund (IMF), the World Bank and others to create a global free market for goods and services. This article shows how globalization affects the entire world including government and politics.

Augmented Reality in Education by Mark Billinghurst - 0 views

  • Transitional Interfaces Milgram points out that computer interfaces can be placed on a continuum according to how much of the user's world is generated by the computer [Milgram 94] (figure 4). Moving from left to right the amount of virtual imagery increases and the connection with reality weakens. AR technology can be used to transition users smoothly along this continuum, as shown by the MagicBook work [Billinghurst 2001]. Figure 4: Milgram's Reality-Virtuality Continuum
