Companies in developing countries are now becoming global players too, offshoring themselves. So outsourcing is not necessarily unidirectional from developed to developing countries. Nadeem describes the tension between the network time of globalization and the rhythms of ordinary life. He shows us how this is important part of global reorganizations of service work, and a growing move towards 24 hr production. Each node is part of creating a seamless 24 hour production (24 hr corporate clock)
