The internet and the cellphone are examples of technical innovations facilitating relationships and interpersonal communication. Offhand I can't think of any "social structure" changes that might improve the situation other than the spread of intellectual values such as democracy, free markets, trial by jury and freedom of the speech and religion to countries currently bereft of such values. Did you have something specific in mind?
