This text describes the various ways in which families, especially parents, teach their children about the nature of the world in which they live and about other people in the world. The volume explores this subject by looking at globalization and what it will mean for contemporary children and examining how it is the responsibility of families, educational institution, and the media to create an enlightened population pool of potential leaders, managers, and "good citizens" for a new world order. The central theme of the book is to identify patterns of family life, and to present them in relation to the challenges and opportunities made possible by engaging the globalization process.
