GLOBAL AWARENESS SOCIETY INTERNATIONAL The Global Awareness Society International, Inc. is a non-profit organization composed of people and organizations of various backgrounds who recognize that the world is no longer made up of independent nations and cultures. This technological induced change affects everyone. We, as an organization, wish to explore the exciting potential that globalization of the world's cultures and societies presents to each and every one of us as citizens of this planet. Established in 1991, our membership includes both academic and non-academic based professionals and individuals from various organizations and nations including the United States. Globalization has made possible what was once merely a vision: the peoples of our world united under the roof of one Global Village. Yet, despite increasing interdependence, conflicts continue to blemish the landscape of our planet. We believe that a vital step toward achieving peace, harmony, and cooperation among the diverse peoples of our globe is to promote mutual understanding and appreciation for one another. Global Awareness Society International strives to turn a global vision into global reality. Purposes of the Global Awareness Society International • To promote awareness of the diversity of cultures within our global community. • To enhance our understanding of the political, economic, social, demographic,

technological, and environmental issues among members of the global community. • To increase sensitivity to issues related to rapid globalization. • To develop a mutual support network of scholars, professionals, interested people and

organizations. • To provide multiple forums for the exchange of research, knowledge, and expertise on

people oriented issues related to globalization. • To help people recognize the diversity and interdependence of the globe's peoples and the

process of globalization. • To develop and expand the number of national or regional Global Awareness Societies

under the direction of the GASI to pursue our common goals. Journal The Journal of Global Awareness is the peer reviewed journal of the Society. Articles to be considered for publication should be submitted to Editor-in-Chief, Dr. Jay Nathan, Tobin College of Business, St. John’s University, 8000 Utopia Parkway, Jamaica, NY 11439. Full submission requirements can be obtained from Dr. Nathan at nathanj@stjohns.com.
