PBS: Frontline/World
Featuring  video stories about countries and cultures rarely seen on American TV, this PBS companion site offers a deeper understanding of "globalization." Video journalists document clashing values and societal changes that happen both too fast and too slowly in less explored corners of the world. In addition to video, the site features a wealth of articles, interviews, factoids, historical analysis, timelines, and links to help viewers understand different perspectives. Follow a Romanian expat's return to his old haunts in the land of Dracula. Watch how Internet access affects children in India, and see what happens when TV comes to the remote kingdom of Bhutan. Learn about international weapons dealers in Sierra Leone, and hear about a multinational consortium leasing the rain in Bolivia. Explore the site by place or story -- either way, you'll find these powerful tales help make the world a smaller place. (in Television) |
