Abstract

We often read that communication technologies are bringing about profound changes in all dimensions of our lives. No doubt these technologies are helping to transform the world. The steam engine, electricity, telephone, car, airplane, television, computer, electronic networks, contributed to the extraordinary expansion of capitalism, in strengthening the urban model and the reduction of distances. But in essence, the technologies are transforming society, rather, the agent of change is the use made of them in the capitalist mode of production that seeks to profit, expansion, internationalization of everything has an economic value.
