Introduction
An ingenious combination of the latest video, computer, and satellite
technologies has brought about an unprecedented telecommunication
revolution. This phenomenal progress, and the resultant power it gives one
person over millions of others (and one nation over many others), has
apparently generated myriad opportunities for humanity. Williams (1982, 195-9)
states: “Just as the international political order up to the 19th century was

The content of communication is the communicator’s ideas, which
