IF u think globalization brings people together you're wrong. Globalization increaes Nationalism and racism. Each nation has own tradition, language, way of living and doesn't want them Remain in the Shadow of Globalization. So, If u Want Keep The World Together and Stop Hatred of Nations to each other Stop Globalizaton!
@becharev Yeah globalisation is good , we should love each other, peace should prevail, we should make love with each other, people of different religioous faiths, different races or ethnic groups should copulate and make kids.
@becharev You and I both know that's not what will happen :-) If anything, Americanization will take over and the world will lose all cultural identity.

Globalization is a bid for world domination where all mankind will be ruled under one flag with an iron fist. This involves global 1 child policy, being able to vote for 1 of 2 puppets to rule the world every 4 years and there will be shadowy people behind the scenes running the show. The Internet will get heavily censored and we'll all get microchipped to ensure obedience.
@SeventhSun If you say so. I think more than likely we're just going to end up even more divided than we are already by the end of this century. I think the people won't have it and they'll revery back to nationalism. I mean can you imagine the United States, Saudi Arabia, Iran and China all run by one government?
As well as, World religions, world culture, world government aka UN, World bank/currency, World Race, aka Human race, Standardization of technological knowhow such as in mathematics, and chemistry bring the culmination of a type one civilization on the country called Earth. That purity much sums it up.
What is Globalization? Well what is the End Game? The End Game is, the destruction of different ancient identities in replace of a world identity where we have Super States like EU, AU, SCO, NAU SAU. It’s a world with one or two language English or Mandarin.
its inevitable really, the internet was the begining of all of this, but the downside is that the strongest countries (those who have already industrialized) are better off than others who have just started, or who havent at all. This is why the U.S. is able to affect every single economy in the world, based on the stability of its own. Its unstable becuase it isnt a joint venture, its marketing of companies being established worldwide. This is not necessarily good, companies can become TOO big.
The mass outsourcing of labor, putting workers in direct competition with third world labor where the value of currency is not equal, devouring and destroying the third world for the profits of CEO's and share holders, imperialist wars to secure contracts and resources, the promotion of racism through racial stereotypes being treated as identity and heritage...
Spin spin spin to make globalization sound good, it's great that we can all interact and all, but globalized capital is destroying us.
Of course, all of these people interviewed are white, thus it appeals and targets the white population. Wake up people. If white high schoolers and college students are watching this, it is not going to take much for them to develope a mindset just like or similar to the people in this interview. It is almost as if is expected-out them to have this perspective. It is conditioning the youth from grade one, and if you oppose it you must be, "ethnocentric." Minorities are not white people, yet.
"Only a generation ago...a worker with a modest formal schooling but a strong back and a willingnesss to work could join the blue-collar middle class. It is clear that those days are over....Very few [such jobs] will be available to the generation now entering the [United States] labor force"
(Robert Kuttner, Everything For Sale: the Virtues and Limits of Markets.
Hey assholes, it's not just America. Europe started globalization. It's imperialism. Americans are only here because Europeans brought us over and kicked out the natives to do it. THINK.
@TheMoonbeamStarr are....are you serious? The level of dumb in that comment astounds me. Mexicans were not "created". They've been here since the Americas were populated and their existence shouldn't be marginalized. And it wasn't just the Spanish. It was the Portuguese, the French, the Dutch, the Germans ... etc. Please try not to be so ethnocentric. I'm in agreement that white people suck. But being educated on the whole story is imperative.
@Deth2NWO Not really. Mexicans are an ethnic group. Aztecs were in central Mexico, the rest of what is now called Mexico had other cultures. Also, having red hair does not make you a Spaniard. Most Spaniards were from Castilla, not typically red-haired . It´s like saying that a German with dark hair must be Italian.
duhhh um a uhh globalization is like visiting other countries and like working with other economies and.. uhh i drink coffee, and i think its very good thing, and its AMERICA's involvment in other counties. in other words it called fucking with people.
fuckkkkkkkkkk ignorance must be bliss!!! i have a hard time sleeping at night knowing about all the inequalities in the world: American imperialism, corporate dominance, the widening gap between classes,(USA)42 million unemployed, at least 500,000 houseless veterans, 1.2 million houseless children,corrrupt /useless education system, corrupt lobbyists defiling politics, politicans/buissnessmen dismantling workers rights,sestemic racismAfrican/Islamic,exploitation 3rd world the list goes on & on
Globalization is nothing new, besides its a process. We can say it started somewhere in the 15th-16th century when europeans "accidently" discovered a new continent. They were to set sail west to reach Asia but discovered a new continent. Here onwards europeans grew stronger by stumbling over new natural resources wich they traded with the eastern part of the world asia. The need to expand/explore and trade to get wealth and power was the basics of globalization.
WOW how misinformed can you be !?!?! First off Globalization is not something new nor was it started by the recent technological boom, it can be traced back to early colonialism. Secondly cultural diversity among one country is not globalization believe it or not America but the whole world doesn't revolve around you.
Globalization can be a good thing, but it also can be a bad thing.It's up to us decide what boundaries we want to delimit to this huge wave of modernity. The great thing about globalization is that it brings the whole world to our backyard, and the bad thing is that maybe we are getting so addicted to this cycle that we might loose our eccentricity, everything would be one. So tell me why would I wanna visit Tel Aviv, Paris ,Beijing if they would all look just like the place I live ? -Gabriele.
I think globalization is for the country discover new cultures, and share your own culture. For example USA sharing your own sulture, and getting back others differents cultures.
I think globalization means the world to stand as one and try to share different cultures and ways of life. It means knowledge of different ways to be. Helena (:
I think globalization is more that a simple integration of a companies, means of comunication, or way of spread products in global market. Globalization is the union of differents habits, differents cultures, and a creation of a standard "way of life".
I think half of globalization is a kind of "americanization" because all world copy USA, the same hobbies, the same food diet. Just because USA is the most developed country in the world, and then everything that comes from there, or the people do there, is perfect, so, we have to copy.
This is quite frightening. To learn what "the new world order" and "globalization" and "social justice" means, study "United Nations Agenda 21." Everyone should know what this agenda means to their everyday life. It's happening NOW!
globalization wouldn't be too bad if it wasn't overused.... what happens when you eat to much sugar? you get a nice high but a long with drawl.... we are now experiencing the with drawl....much so to those who are very weak against it ( middle class anyone?)
this is what corporate propoganda says , In reality is is a sell out of the USA people. Look at Deroit, blame the unions or blame the managemnt, But with the auto industry globalized we all lose in the USA,. Except stock holders
Globalization. Internationalization. One World Government. Nationalization. It's all the same wonderful thing -- if your objective is to kill the greatest country that ever existed. If you want to be Chinese, go to China. If you want to be Indonesian, go there. If you want to be African, you can go there, too. Russian? There's Russia... You'll be expected to assimilate to their culture and laws no matter where you go, though.
Someday soon however, where will you go if you want to be an American?

omg, these guys are really blind, globalisation may be good, but think about it, 67 percent of the worlds wealthis in the US, i mean globalisation are creating huge disparities between the poor and the rich,
Countries should import only those goods which are very essential for survival..not all goods..this not only will help saving fuels but also reduce pollution and green house effect,,it will also boost local employment.
@Stockstrumpf i am an american and i agree with you. our leaders want to expand big corporations around the world and cut out small companies. its fucking sad. i want to travel around the world so bad. and searching pictures of other countries it pisses me off when i see a mcdonalds on there street corners.
Love the happy music lol. Globalization where big companies take over small companies across the world will only lead to Nationalzation, where the government buys out bankrupt business which becomes state owned. Happy days =D

This video gives you a distorted picture of what globalisation actually is. One of the reasons is that it is focusing on pretty much 2 dimensions of globalisation (economic and technological), whereas contemporary globalisation is highly uneven, assymetrical and multidimensional process. Whoever wants to get an all-round understanding of what globalisation is read the introductory chapter of Baylis's and Smith's The Globalisation of World Politics: An Intro to IR

@Nickalispicalis "globalization is the reason we have taco bell, pizza hut, and a chinese place on the same street.".... She thinks that taco bell is from mexico, pizza hut from italy, and so on.. What a nob. Although, yes the reason you'll find them all on the same street, is globalization.. and the reasons why the food is so cheap, and why the majority of jobs in the united states are service jobs. while elsewhere is production.. odd...
@Barch104 = *he says while typing on a website that is a prime example of how globalization brings the world together*
I ain't saying globalization is perfect -- but its easy for a lot of people to blame westerners -- most often America -- for their own domestic issues.
@Barch104 The word free and market is a contradiction in terms , just as CAPITAL enslaves and exploites WAGE LABOR . The dynamics of World Capitalism whether Corporate dominated or State dictated is the abstract PROCESS of CAPITAL ACCUMULATION and CONCENTRATION. This abstract process is DESTRUCTIVE and enforced by MILLITARY MIGHT. The INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION was underpinned by built up of the BRITISH NAVY and US DOLLAR by world wide millitary bases.
The first sentence is completely incorrect. Cell phones have been around for over 25 years when this video was made(2008). Personnal computers? What about Commodore 64, TRS-80? There was something called BBS's. Bulletin Board Systems. These were kinda like websites of today. Italian food was a novelty in the 70's? Was anyone else old enough to remember these things?
globalization means that you can interact or comunicate with anyone in the world as you like when you like is a conection of the world, internet is helping globalization as much as 99% , the problem with this is that some people are going to take advantage of this without you realizing it, humansget really touched when somebody tells them something that makes them important or better, you will eventually follow that idea or concept because you dont want to be left out of the circle. be aware
this video makes me sick to the pit of my stomach. AMERICA, WE ARE IN TROUBLE, I FEEL BAD FOR THEIR CHILDREN WHEN THEY ASK," WHY DID YOU LET THIS HAPPEN TO ME" THEY ARE GOING TO LIVE AS SLAVES IN A LAND THAT THEIR FATHERS CONQUERED! STAND UP FOR YOURSELF!
Globalization will cause the equalization of wages paid to labor throughout the world. While that is good for Chinese citizens at the moment, it is not so advantageous for people in countries that are losing their manufacturing base.
Here in the US we (the tax paying people) subsidize our farmers, which is currently of no benefit to most average American's. In doing so although our food might cost a lot, our taxes pay to help lower the cost of production. That includes food that will eventually be exported outside of our country. We may produce rice that would typically cost more to produce in the US than outside of the US, but because of these subsidies (in theory) it costs us less. (Continued in next post)
@langox510x How does cheap food not benifit poor countries. Food that cost half as much of what it use to allow the poor to buy twice as much food. Can't you understand that?
@simontimon2 If you put their business out of business how would they even have money to buy the cheap food that floods their economies? The majority of these economies are agrarian economies with means of supporting the locals, and little means to compete through exports. This means that they have a high volume of imports, but very little exports. To add, even the US places sanctions on these nations if they try to place embargoes, siting lack of "free" trade, but this free trade ain't free.
@simontimon2 You mean the resources of the 3rd world will relocate to more productive forms of production IE: US & Canada? If so you're in a sense correct, however being Canadian you might be aware of a New Democratic Party, which is based on the principles of social democracy. Many countries are in fact moving to chance the way they do business in a way that is more humane.
@langox510x Why don't you check out the Freedom Party of Canada. It stand for freedom. The NDP stands for increacing unemployment and to steal for poor and give it to the politicaly rich.
@simontimon2 I'm not a part of the NDP, as I;m from the US, but here we only have two parties, and until that changes I may be Democratic until the day I die. I'm done arguing with a wall. You're a dumb motherfucker. Please get off the couch and do something productive. I've got a history exam in an hour so peace out.
@langox510x From this I can tell that you are in tens of thousands of dollar in debt. Hope you enjoys your degree that will never get you a job.
My prediction is that when you graduate you'll have to go back home and live with your parents and work at mcdonalds. Hope you enjoys your garnish wages from college debt that you will never be able to repay.
@simontimon2 Actually scholarships paid for the bulk of my tuition, and I do have a nice job. Trust that my debt is minimal, and after college I think I will soon have it paid off completely.
@simontimon2 Not that I am required to answer any personal questions, but I am an assistant buyer for a mid-sized clothing company, and I hope to get a position as a buyer once I finish my education. I've actually had this job for the past 6 years.
@langox510x So basicly you don't know the job your gona get. You got scamed there are practily no jobs for people with Bachlor in political Science and history.
The only jobs you might get is lawyer or politician, last time i've check no one's hiring.
@langox510x My Mining engineers degree which cost me 4000$ and 6 months of my life. Is worth far more than your Ba in History and Political Science. Since my degree give me a job in the real World that pays a yearly salery of 96 thousands.
@simontimon2 . What exactly do you see as being humane when American businesses "provide" children in Indonesia with jobs making 8 cents an hour? An income as low as that does not pay the bills or put food on the table. The only thing it does provide is a few million in pocket change for some rich white executive in America who has hardly worked a day in his life.
@simontimon2 Simon... you're a clown, and you look pretty retarded in your youtube video at that. You really know how to come off as one of the weaker fish. I would love to see you toil in the fields along side these hard working, yet still starving people of the 3rd nation. I'm betting not even haven eaten, these people are ten times as strong of a person as you are. I'm guessing if you had to live as they do you would have died long ago.
@simontimon2 I love biking, and do have my eyes set on biking from San Francisco to LA. I've backpacked a single trek of 120 miles in the mountains of New Mexico (around age 16), and about to recieve my BA in Poli Sci and History, and I now am currently building a rideshare website which I believe will be extremely useful to college students in the future.
@langox510x Your theory has a hole in it that you haven't equated (Currencies) and the role they play. You see to buy US food, you have to first sell your currencie buy US dollars to make your transaction.
That can be done for a while, but as time goes on, your currency looses value to the US dollar.
To import food from the US becomes more expencive. Until it become cheaper produce food in your own country then to import it. At that point native farmer reopen and produce food again.
I thought this video did a good job of getting people to ask the question and I thought they did a good job of highlighting some of the main issures surrounding globalization. I like that it personalizes the discussion.
People will rise once globalization reaches the political level where different types of countries that had different governing type become only one type of government
thanks to globalization many corporations are sucking out water from states farms sell it to other countries and then the US buy crops from other countries instead of just using their own.
Southern Texas should take English courses to improve English! When you have a good argument, I think it is best that you refrain from the "f" word. It simply weakens your argument. Even though it caught my attention, I was hoping their might be some logical reasoning behind the reason you disliked this video on "What is globalization?" Can you come up with a better definition of globalization? Is Southern Texas over-run by what?
Bullshit. She forgot about simple telephones. You did not have to send paper letters to the other side of the country and wait a few days for it to arrive. Just make a phone call. Cell phones and laptops are not the reason of globalization. Damn this is so stupid.
@Indrius She's paroting what her leftist professor told her: your generation is different. Freedom and the Constitution are obsolete. The Left hates diversity of perspective. That's why it does its best to censor using hate speech legislation and Fairness Doctrines.
@jkirk1626 You mean paroting of the right. Globalization is a pretty conservative idea, and is an extension to such ideas as Manifest Destiny, and colonialism.
@simontimon2 Do you honestly not see anything wrong with your statistical deduction? You pointed out countries that are all currently considered first world nations. Why don't you try looking at modern countries today, because according to the U.N. 17,000 children die of hunger per day, and 6 million children per year. You might not want to believe it, but hunger if a far greater problem then it was pre globalization, or even 50 years ago.
@langox510x You have just confermed that you can't understand lojic. Famine ended in China when the chinese turned to globalization insted of maxist theory.
The 6 million children per year that you refer to. Are from countries that have not yet globalized.
North Korea is a perfect example of how a non globalized country is facing famines that killed million.
While South Korea has globalized and is not facing famine.
@simontimon2. Now with our already low production cost with rice we can flood other poor nations with cheap rice. This might seem like a good thing for these poorer nations, but it's far from it. Now because of this cheap rice we drive all of the native rice producers out of business, making these nations more dependent with less jobs to support themselves. In the short run they might have a bit more rice to eat, but in the long run they eventually starve, and the US only profits.
@simontimon2 Why don't you do some research before you spout off your personal illogic? Haven't you ever heard the the term "Give a man a fish and you have fed him for today. Teach a man HOW to fish and he can feed himself for the rest of his life?" The problem is that when we give countries food (or sell it to them cheap) we put their own business out of business. Then when we pull out they no longer have any source of food.
@simontimon2 These nations don't have the means to export food because our nations have taken that away from them. Again, their rice might cost $5 to produce when ours cost $7 to produce. Our government then compensates our farmers with $3 in price reduction making it cost only $4 to produce. These farmers than go to Haiti and sell their cheaper (lower quality) rice to the poor Haitians driving Haitian rice producers out of work. We have decimated their jobs, now how are they going to buy rice?
@simontimon2 And you plan on single-handedly supplying these nations with heavy machinery (industry)? I've yet to see anybody decimate the spelling of the word machinery as you just have? I'm guessing your 8th grade education didn't teach you much about economy and politics, because arguing with you is like arguing with a blind person about the color of the sky. t doesn't matter what color everybody else sees, because to you the sky must be green.
@simontimon2 I think we owe many of these countries a service because our countries have fucked them over pretty good. Honestly, I think many of these poor nations need to be completely let out of their billion dollar debts at least to the IMF, if not private organizations. (next posting)
@simontimon2 Then I think they should have privilege over certain niche markets to help expand their economy, as through cutthroat globalization we fucked up most of the niches they once might have held. And I think they should have the right to use any means fit to tariff imported goods into their nation, without suffering sanctions. You might think this is crazy, but if you knew anything about South Korea, you would know that's essentially what they got from the West after the Korean War.
@langox510x Your theory has a hole in it that you haven't equated (Currencies) and the role they play. You see to buy US food, you have to first sell your currencie buy US dollars to make your transaction.
That can be done for a while, but as time goes on, your currency looses value to the US dollar.
To import food from the US becomes more expencive. Until it become cheaper produce food in your own country then to import it. At that point native farmer reopen and produce food again.
@simontimon2 These farmers don't have the income to reopen because the American businesses left them with nothing. I know that is hard for you to believe, but that's exactly what happens. If I open a grocery story, and Wal-Mart decides to move in next door odds are I will be put out of business, and be heavy in debt. If Wal-Mart decides to close it's doors I'll still be shit outa luck because I do not have the funds to reopen.
@simontimon2 I'm also not an ugly square bear who can get laid and currently have a beautiful girlfriend. Yes, many private corporations might greatly profit off of globalization, but any benefit you will receive will be minimal at best. Thank God for minimum wages in America, because without them these companies would still be rich, but even here in the US (or Canada) you would starve.
@langox510x If your saying that if it wheren't for minimum wage people would starving. Well guess what, the country of Norway has no minimum wage laws, yet I don't see people starving.
Yet again I have given an example that disproves you arguement.
@simontimon2 You have just confirmed to me that you can't even spell logic, but that's aside from my point.
I suggest you look up the definition of globalization, because unless you're living off on some remote island, or a tribe in the bush Globalization probably affects every aspect of your life. Any nation involved in modern trade is globalized. Have you never heard of the sweatshop? The problem is that as our nation gets richer the nations at the bottom only get poorer.
@langox510x When China entered the global market it was one of the poorest nations. Yet with in 20 years of globization they're economy has now become the second weathest nation.
How many time must I give real life example that disprove your theoretical arguments!

@TheMoonbeamStarr are....are you serious? The level of dumb in that comment astounds me. Mexicans were not "created". They've been here since the Americas were populated and their existence shouldn't be marginalized. And it wasn't just the Spanish. It was the Portuguese, the French, the Dutch, the Germans ... etc. Please try not to be so ethnocentric. I'm in agreement that white people suck. But being educated on the whole story is imperative.

@Deth2NWO Not really. Mexicans are an ethnic group. Aztecs were in central Mexico, the rest of what is now called Mexico had other cultures. Also, having red hair does not make you a Spaniard. Most Spaniards were from Castilla, not typically red-haired . It´s like saying that a German with dark hair must be Italian.

Globalization is nothing new, besides its a process. We can say it started somewhere in the 15th-16th century when europeans "accidently" discovered a new continent. They were to set sail west to reach Asia but discovered a new continent. Here onwards europeans grew stronger by stumbling over new natural resources wich they traded with the eastern part of the world asia. The need to expand/explore and trade to get wealth and power was the basics of globalization.

Globalization can be a good thing, but it also can be a bad thing.It's up to us decide what boundaries we want to delimit to this huge wave of modernity.

Here in the US we (the tax paying people) subsidize our farmers, which is currently of no benefit to most average American's. In doing so although our food might cost a lot, our taxes pay to help lower the cost of production. That includes food that will eventually be exported outside of our country. We may produce rice that would typically cost more to produce in the US than outside of the US, but because of these subsidies (in theory) it costs us less. (Continued in next post)

@simontimon2 If you put their business out of business how would they even have money to buy the cheap food that floods their economies? The majority of these economies are agrarian economies with means of supporting the locals, and little means to compete through exports. This means that they have a high volume of imports, but very little exports. To add, even the US places sanctions on these nations if they try to place embargoes, siting lack of "free" trade, but this free trade ain't free.

@simontimon2. Now with our already low production cost with rice we can flood other poor nations with cheap rice. This might seem like a good thing for these poorer nations, but it's far from it. Now because of this cheap rice we drive all of the native rice producers out of business, making these nations more dependent with less jobs to support themselves. In the short run they might have a bit more rice to eat, but in the long run they eventually starve, and the US only profits.

@simontimon2 These nations don't have the means to export food because our nations have taken that away from them. Again, their rice might cost $5 to produce when ours cost $7 to produce. Our government then compensates our farmers with $3 in price reduction making it cost only $4 to produce. These farmers than go to Haiti and sell their cheaper (lower quality) rice to the poor Haitians driving Haitian rice producers out of work. We have decimated their jobs, now how are they going to buy rice?

@langox510x If your saying that if it wheren't for minimum wage people would starving. Well guess what, the country of Norway has no minimum wage laws, yet I don't see people starving.
Yet again I have given an example that disproves you arguement.

@langox510x Strange that I have prof that I have done what I've done. Yet you haven't given me any prof of what you have done?
For all I know your just making this up.

@simontimon2 You have just confirmed to me that you can't even spell logic, but that's aside from my point.
I suggest you look up the definition of globalization, because unless you're living off on some remote island, or a tribe in the bush Globalization probably affects every aspect of your life. Any nation involved in modern trade is globalized. Have you never heard of the sweatshop? The problem is that as our nation gets richer the nations at the bottom only get poorer.

@langox510x In Canada logic is spelled lojic.

@langox510x When China entered the global market it was one of the poorest nations. Yet with in 20 years of globization they're economy has now become the second weathest nation.
How many time must I give real life example that disprove your theoretical arguments!
