1. How do we depend on people from other countries for our daily needs? Food and cheap commercial goods are produced in China and shipped here. Also, US pop music is listened to all over the world.
2. do we actually live in a "global village" or is it more like a "global planation" where white exploit non-white people through near slave labor and forcing them to buy expensive white stuff.
3. It means two countries that have become tied together in an economic sense or political sense. For example China / USA , both have tied their economies together so USA gets cheaper goods and China has huge cities that just produce goods for the US thus creating employment and money for their country.
   
   
   
   Saudi Arabia and the USA are another example, the US needs the oil and Saudi needs weapons and money from the US.
   
   
   
   
   
   So, it is countries that are linked together both ways, it is not just one country depending on another but both connected. I hope this helps!
