Social media is one of the most cultural transformation that is consistently transcending. It’s media influences causes countries to look fabricated because they’re developmentally constituting new images that take form in global capitalism. The way social media has modernized a culture and created a migration back to their homeland. With the effects of globalization, “transnational migrant and refugees [feels as if] “reterritorialization” is far more problematic than a matter of mass recreating of, or return to, lost homelands collectively displaced peoples who remain clustered in spatial enclaves outside their former national borders” [Smith 18]. Social media has interconnect people around the world in social actions across various borders, it also raises awareness to the economic and political problems that rises when things take in forms of capitalism. Various jobs has been created with the help of social media and rise of tourism, but it doesn’t necessarily benefit those who are affected because they’re constantly finding ways to maintain their survival strategies.
Question: Is social media seen more as a benefit to economic conditions in third world countries? People are traveling more than ever with social media influences. It causes third world countries to be seen in a different light, considering how cheap it is to travel there.
