3. WHAT IS GLOBALIZATION?
GLOBALIZATION IS THE PROCESS BY WHICH THE
EXPERIENCE OF EVERYDAY IS BECOMING THE
SAME ALL AROUND THE WORLD. GLOBALIZATION
MAKES THE WORLD SMALLER AND MORE
ACCESSIBLE.
1800-1900 SHIPS AND TRAINS
1950 PLANES
1960-2017 JETS AND
INTERNET
…
… TECHNOLOGY IS THE PRINCIPAL DRIVER OF GLOBALIZATION
4. SINCE WORLD WAR II GOVERNMENTS HAVE
NEGOTIATED DRAMATIC REDUCTION IN
BARRIERS TO COMMERCE AND THEY HAVE
ESTABLISHED INTERNATIONAL AGREEMENTS
TO PROMOTE A WORLD TRADE (i.e. WTO).
5. THERE ARE VISIBLE EXAMPLES?
THE INCREASING PRESENCE OF MCDONALD’S
RESTAURANTS WORLDWIDE IS AN EXAMPLE
OF GLOBALIZATION, WHILE CHANGES MADE
TO THE MENUS OF THE RESTAURANT CHAIN,
IN AN ATTEMPT TO APPEAL TO LOCAL TASTES,
IS AN EXAMPLE OF GLOBALIZATION.
6. WHY IS THE GLOBALIZATION SO
IMPORTANT TODAY?
IN ECONOMY GLOBALIZATION IS VERY IMPORTANT BECAUSE
IT ALLOWS ENTRERPRISES TO COMUNICATE AND TO DEAL ALL
OVER THE WORLD BETWEEN THEM.
•THEY MAY BUY RAW MATERIALS WHERE ARE CHEAPER;
•THEY MAY SELL GOODS IN OTHER COUNTRIES;
•THEY MAY IMPROVE THEIR PRODUCTS THANKS TO NEW
TECHNOLOGICAL DISCOVERIES.
7. INTERNATIONAL CORPORATE
SOCIAL RESPONSABILITY
TODAY A BUSINESS DOESN’T LOOK ONLY TO THE PROFIT BUT IT
LOOKS ALSO TO THE PROBLEMS OF THE SOCIETY.
IN FACT ENTREPRENEUS LOOKS THE ENVIRONMENT, CLIMATE,
PEOPLE, WORKERS…
TODAY, THANKS TO GLOBALIZATION, WE HAVE A LOT OF
COMPANIES THAT DEVELOP SUSTAINABLES PROJECTS.
8. GLOBAL
ECONOMY
FROM AN ECONOMIC POINT OF VIEW GLOBALIZATION IS THE
TENDENCY OF THE ECONOMY TO BECOME GLOBAL. SUCH
DEGREE OF COMMERCIAL OPENING IS CALCULATED AS THE
RELATIONSHIP AMONG THE SUM OF THE EXPORTS (X) IT IS OF
THE IMPORTATIONS (T) ON THE GROSS (PIL) INSIDE PRODUCT:
OPEN = X+T / PIL.
AN ELEVATED DEGREE OF OPENING OF THE NATIONAL
MARKET TO THE INTERNATIONAL COMMERCE EXPOSES THE
SAME COUNTRY TO THE REPERCUSSIONS OF POSSIBLE
ECONOMIC CRISES ORIGINATED IN OTHER STATES.
9. GLOBALIZATION? YES!
THE ECONOMIC GLOBALIZATION IMPLIES THE LIBERTY OF
MOVEMENT OF PEOPLE, UNDERTAKEN, SERVICES AND CAPITALS
AND, THANKS TO THIS, THE EXPORTS IN THE YEARS '90 ARE
INCREASED OF 18% IN COMPARISON TO THE YEARS '70.
THE PASSAGE FROM HER "TERRITORIAL ECONOMY" TO
THAT "INTERNATIONAL" HAS BROUGHT NOTABLE
IMPROVEMENTS IN THE STANDARD OF LIFE OF MILLION OF
PEOPLE THAT LIVE IN THE COUNTRIES BENEFICIARIES OF THE
DEMOLITION OF THE FRONTIERS.
STATES, BECAUSE OF THE GENERAL REDUCTION OF
THEIR ENTRANCES, ARE REDUCING THE EXPENSE
"SOCIAL" AND PERHAPS THIS IS WELL, HAVING
GENERALLY SHOWN TO MANAGE BADLY.
10. GLOBALIZATION? NO!
THERE ARE MANY ECONOMISTS THAT HOLD THE GLOBALIZATION RESPONSIBLE OF
HAVING INCREASED THE PHENOMENON OF THE JUVENILE JOB;
THERE IS THE CONCRETE RISK THAT THE DIFFERENT CULTURES OF
EVERYTHING, EVEN THOUGH INTERACTING, STARTS TO MELT,
GOING AS TO LOSE THE CONTOURS THAT ARE HIM PROPER AND THAT
THEY CHARACTERIZE THE INDIVIDUALITY OF IT;
GREAT DIFFUSION OF THE ILLNESSES AS THE KINDS INVASIVE DI
BUGS THAT, INVOLVED IN THE PROCESSES OF EXPORT
COMMODITIES, COULD REVEAL DEVASTATING IN NON NATIVE
ECOSYSTEMS;
THE GREAT WESTERN ORGANIZATIONS AS THE INTERNATIONAL MONETARY
FUND AND THE WORLD BANK MAKE EASY, FOR A DEVELOPING COUNTRY, TO
GET A LOAN. NEVERTHELESS, THE IRON RULES THAT REGULATE THE
MARKET OF THE LOANS CAN REVEAL AN IT ARMS TO DOUBLE CUT FOR THE
COUNTRIES.
