“Globalization” refers to the growing economic and cultural interconnectedness between different regions of the world. Because modern transportation and electronic communication have made commercial relationships between distant people easier than ever before, the world is rapidly becoming a single interactive zone. This phenomenon has brought several unanticipated benefits.
The most commonly cited virtue of globalization is that it allows developing nations to use their low costs of living to their advantage. Because workers in developing nations can survive on less money, the production of goods in the developing world is significantly cheaper. This encourages business with those economies, fostering economic wellbeing. Southeast Asia, for example, has seen annual economic growth, allowing its citizens to live more comfortably today than their parents did only a generation ago.
A secondary but no less noteworthy advantage is that world trade creates competition that would otherwise be missing. As the rise of capitalism has demonstrated, competition forces the producers of goods to keep their goods’ quality as high as or higher than that of their competitors and, simultaneously, their costs as affordable as possible. This means, in general, better goods for lower prices among those countries that participate in the global system. Those that do not, meanwhile, see prices climb.
Finally, globalization has cultivated a mutual reliance between countries that puts pressure on governments to make safer and healthier choices. Countries that rely on one another’s business are far less likely to go to war, for instance, and also must listen to the environmental concerns of their business partners. Countries that pollute excessively will see less business, and therefore must learn to curb environmental damage.
The passage and the lecture offer opposing view regarding the unanticipated benefits brought by Globalization. While the text provides some evidence in support of the benefits brought by Globalization, the Professor refutes those benefits by stating that Globalization is causing more economic and environmental problems.
First, the text says that Globalization has helped the developing nations to utilize their low cost of living and has enabled them to live more comfortably compared to their ancestors. However, the Professor refutes this idea by stating that though Globalization might helping some countries, it is also affecting many countries as industries are relocated in countries where economic labors are available. He provides example of American TV production industry and says that as Mexico has cheap labor, this industry has been relocated to Mexico and made many american job less.
Second, the professor refutes the idea of the text that Globalization has brought down environmental pollution. The text presents evidence that Globalization has increased reliance between countries in the world, who are participating in Globalization, and this in turn has forced them to reduce pollution. However, the lecture explains that cheap labor has made it possible for developing nations to grow many industries in their countries which is causing serious environmental problems.
Finally, the text mentions that Globalization has connected the countries of the world to create a competition between them which is helping people by enabling them to have good quality product in exchange of low price. But the professor states that Globalization spreads economic problem of one country to another country and he provides evidence of 2008 recession which was introduced in US but later spread throughout the world.
