GLOBALIZATION

When you start to talk about globalization you might be talking about a word that
have many definitions, that depends on which area are you in. For example, there
are many
diffirent topics, such as: economy, finance, consumption, capitalism, socialism,
culture, religion, among others, where the word “globalization” can fit in. But for
now I’ll only talk
about some facts. Globalization is a process of global economical, political and
cultural integration. Its major characteristic features are capitalism expansions,
global labor
division, migration of financial, human and production resources within the planet,
standardization of legislation, economic and technological processes, as well as
removing
the borders between cultures of various countries. But does globalization can be a
good factor for the world development on all it’s dimensions? Well, that’s a
really hard
question to be answer, but in somehow, and in my personal opinion, I can say that,
globalization is not a force that may abolish traditions, religions, and why not
history.

In these new era, the world is facing so many changes, Internet is a great tool
for everyone, and no one can deny it, and of course all
technology that the world is making continously every single day, is perhaps for
our own comsuption, and service. But have you ever thought if those advantages
which
are really important for yourself, where made just to satisfy the pokets of rich
people who careless about enveriomental issues or people’s explotation?. Obviosly
you
may not be that dramatic, and furthermore that it is not the only problem of the
internationalization. With every passing day, the world is becoming smaller, and
the globalization
process is taking place. Advances in communication, transportation, genetics, and
computer technology have all played a role in making the world a smaller place.
With the right
equipment, people can talk to friends and family from the other side of the world.
Traveling from America to China, which once required months at sea, now only takes
hours in
the air. Computer networking and fax machines allow world businesses to conduct
negotiations and money transactions, within a matter of seconds. Images such as
the
McDonalds’s golden arches and Mickey Mouse are recognized worldwide. Yet, while
globalization is taking place, it is not doing so without dispute. Many countries,
in fact, feel
threatened by Western culture and consequently, are acting out to preserve their
own identities. That’s what I call “Cultural globalization”. People around world
moves from a
place to an other everyday, exchanging manners, likes, foods, ideas, whatever.
That would be probably why we may find a chinnese restaurant in Berlin, or
directions on our
city’s library in more than 3 languages! Globalization has much more dimensions
and we can find something positive in every single one, but it brings ecological
threats, religious
conflicts, cultural unification and many more biting problems. Globalization is
natural and irrecoverable process and we cannot do anything against it, but we
should, at least,
keep it in our minds.

Small distances!
