While all goverments think that Globalization is a good deal for the integration and democratization of the world's culture, economy, tecnology,etc.The world is crumbling gradually beacuse instead of improving It, It's getting worse.The poverty is increasing,It is having a major impact on population migration and population distribution.The most important thing is the damage that they are causing to the environment are severe.
Globalization is a process that we can not avoid. Many brands are influencing and affecting our lives, and make us feel the necessity of buying and consuming new products; that's why we sometimes don't invest but waste money.
I agree Jessey. Globalization is a selfish lifetime process because we are not thinking about our collective future. World's bisggest multinational corporations want to attract more customers in order to bring in more money for their companies without without taking into account the potential environmental impacts.
As the video proposed, globalization has both positive and negative consequences. The good thing about globalization is that thanks to it we are able to the latests advances in technology, which of course is really usefull when used in the right way, and too many other good things. On the other hand, the bad thing about globalization is that in some way it's killing our world and unconsciously trhough this phenomenom we are doing it too. Besides, as Andrea said globalization is something that we can't avoid and that creates in us the need of buying and buying things that actually are not necessary and of course that's why sometimes we don't invest but waste money.
I disagree with what you are saying because well it's true that the planet is dying but it isn't because GLOBALIZATION it's because every single person has contributed, me and you every single day contribute with our actions, companies and multinationals do not force people to buy their products, because as human beings everyone decides what i want and what not.
For me GLOBALIZATION is necessary and in the future it's gonna be the key, because contries will need to be together.
I think globalized nations, those who control economy and industry, are now more conscious of the environmental problems after many years of careless explotation. Last treaties between rich countries talk more about this than before and this is due to globalization which has helped a lot to spread the idea of an economical growth less agressive to the environment. Internet and television are now more useful to create a "global" environmental conscience than ever before.
In my humble opinion, the main problem about globalization is people don´t realize that if they prefer to buy foering products the local economy will fall off. another problem is the mix between cultures because it will most probably the weaker one disappear in the end.
what it's Globalization? For me it's a wave of comunication, commercialization and technology that it's good to join and vey difficult to escape. Even though it might have negative consequences, the good outweighs the bad :D I think there are more good things and the major idea it's to bring the world together for colaborations.

ReplyDeleteIt would be a good idea to check the differences between 'globalization' and 'consumerism', I believe Andrea and you are referring to the latter.
