ABSTRACT
The technological and economic advances in recent times are unprecedented. The increase in production, international trade, and investment has been phenomenal on a global scale after World War II, 2 which has been translated into the unprecedented wealth of industrialized, developed countries and their citizens. 3 Those who live in developed countries benefit from the latest advent of modern technologies which allow them to connect to anyone in the world in a matter of seconds, acquire information that they need in an instant, and enjoy a lifestyle which would have been possible for only a small number of the society’s elite class in the past. These benefits have also been extended to many of those living in the countries that have achieved economic development successfully in the recent decades. 4
