Modernization and Globalization has in a way become a boon for human civilization. As it is said, "the world has become a smaller place" and the distance between continents has become less as transportation has become fast and communication has been revolutionized. On the other hand, the distance between two individuals is rather increasing. In spite of all these modern facilities which are reducing the gap between continents and countries, the gap with the people living by one's side like one's family members, neighbors and friends is increasing.
As a result of this a whole lot of new social and psychological problems, for instance, alienation, loneliness, aggression, depression, suicides and so forth, are increasing. If affluence and economic independence is improving the living standards of people, on the other hand it is also giving rise to a different set of new values, which are entirely different from the existing ones.
