Today industrial production is performed across national boundaries in real time with great accuracy and precision using digital information communication technologies. Manufacturing in one location is possible as it receives digital signals and messages transmissions from remote activities across borders. But who are these magicians behind the curtain? They are the highly skilled and educated knowledge workers of the global, blue-collar, working class. A generation ago working in industrial settings we would have likely shared close physical proximity as well as a common language and culture. Today we share the interconnectedness of our global village across national, cultural, and linguistic boundaries.

如今，利用数字信息通信技术，可以跨越国界实时，高精度，高精度地进行工业生产。在一个位置进行制造是可能的，因为它会接收来自跨境远程活动的数字信号和消息传输。但是这些魔术师是谁呢？他们是全球蓝领工人阶级的高技能和受过良好教育的知识工人。在工业环境中工作的一代人以前，我们很可能会共享紧密的身体以及共同的语言和文化。今天，我们分享了跨越国家，文化和语言界限的全球村庄的相互联系。
