7. “GLOBALIZATION: THE CHALLENGE TO AMERICA” When your computer crashes in the middle of a late-night homework session and you call a help line, there's a good chance in this era of globalization that the friendly person assisting you is on the other side of the world, possibly in Bangalore, India's high-tech capital. Bangalore is home to not only Indian firms, but also to outposts of American companies like Dell, IBM, and Delta Airlines, which in recent years have been hiring Indians to handle jobs outsourced from the U.S. Well-educated, ambitious, and fluent in English, young Indians cost a lot less than their American counterparts: A call-center employee in Bangalore makes around $5,000 a year, compared with about $25,000 in the U.S. Today, there are 160,000 people in high-tech jobs in Bangalore, and they're doing a lot more than answering help-line calls. Someone in India (or China, South Korea, or elsewhere) may be preparing your parents' tax returns, reading your X-rays, or writing software you'll soon be using. Globalization has entered a new phase, with critical implications for all Americans, especially young people. New York Times Op-Ed columnist Thomas L. Friedman wonders if the U.S. is ready for the challenge.
