I wondered that myself: for those of us that can sit in front of a P.C. and
interact with what *seems* like the rest of the world it is perhaps easy to
be carried away with a term like 'global'...it appears to be
all-encompassing and yet really can only be used by those who are
economically stable enough to have a concept of the 'rest of the world' and
some knowledge of the connections that make up *a* 'global picture'. As a
title for a course it could be useful if the term itself was part of the
discursive activity.
