Interdependence visual aid

Hello again, hope you are enjoying our blog?

We have decided to add a few diagrams to instil the concept of Interdependence. Hopefully this will clear up any uncertainties that you had.

Enjoy



Facebook oozes Interdependence. As you can see from the homepage, which we all recognise ,we can see that 'facebook helps you connect and share with the people in your life', as you can see where these connections are made (interms of their geographical position). As a little activity look at your 'mutual friends' and try to make 10 connections between them. This in a nutshell is what Interdependence is all about.


We have attempted to simply conceptualise interdependence in the above model. All three places are geographically separate in terms of location. However, they are all interconnected in terms of the strands of interdependence, which can be broken down into: Social
Economic
Political
Environmental
Cultural

In addition all 3 places are located within a framework of globalisation.

We will return to these strands of interdendence in future blogs!
