The greatest challenge to social norms generally is often presumed to be the internet, particularly the rise of social media. Indeed, the change here is precisely the shift from local to global forms of social identity. We consider the major impact of social media not only on establishing localised communities, but also in wider terms - on international relations and the building of national identities.
