Political and trade relations across borders are not now new phenomena. Imperialism, colonialism, and military conquest have, infact, always accompanied human societies and have historically produced multinational economic networks, displacement of populations, culturally heterogeneous countries, and multinational empires under the supervision of hegemonic political powers (Edward Said,1993).
With the end of colonialism and the emergence of a seemingly new world order we have entered into the age of “post-modernization”. Without any doubt, the leading issues for the beginning of the new age are globalization and global risks. As a part of this informative, knowledge-based, globalised risk society (Beck) we have already endorsed the tag of “High-tech Being”. From
