This unusual book was written 30 years ago and was a prophetic prediction of the current situation, when the electronic means of mass media have a total effect on human society.
Social changes, which were brought by the introduction of new technologies, the “self -power” of human nature as a result of the exit of mankind into the world of the global information network, “tragic searches for self -identification” beyond the framework of their own “I”, everything was predicted. Perhaps it sounds almost like science fiction – but there are practically no mistakes in the work “War and the World in the Global Village”. And if Makluen and Fior managed to describe the world in detail in which we now live, perhaps other, even more bold hypotheses will come true?
