The sources provide an in-depth analysis of the Iridium project, a space-based global cellular phone system, developed by Motorola in the late 1980s and early 1990s. The text explores the technical and business aspects of the project, examining how Iridium exemplified the prevailing neoliberal ideology and globalization of the time. The sources also highlight the cultural tensions between Cold War era systems thinking and new market-driven production techniques, as well as the challenges of bridging the gap between American corporate ideals and the diverse cultural realities of a global marketplace.
