In this module, you will journey to the very heart of this course: you will be asked to identify the challenges posed by globalization and consider responses to these challenges as demonstrated by experiences on the ground. For this purpose, students will produce case studies of communities (in the Philippines and other countries) experiencing the impact of globalization and their respective responses to issues that arise. There are global-civic societies engaged in advocacies relating to climate and environmental protection, for example, human trafficking across borders, the application of advances in science and technology to serve some of the world’s poorest communities, and so on. There are, too, communities that have managed, in varying degrees of success, to deal with the effects, good and bad, of globalization.

Changing demographics and economic growth bloomDESMOND YUEN
Demography is destiny” is an oft-cited phrase that suggests the size, growth, and structure of a nation’s population deter mines its long-term social, economic, andpolitical fabric. The phrase highlights the role of
demographics in shaping many complex challenges
and opportunities societies face, including several
pertinent to economic growth and development.
Nevertheless, it is an overstatement to say that
demography determines all, as it downplays the
fact that both demographic trajectories and their
development implications are responsive to economic
incentives; to policy and institutional reforms; and to
changes in technology, cultural norms, and behavior.
The world is undergoing a major demographic
upheaval with three key components: population
growth, changes in fertility and mortality, and
associated changes in population age structure.
Richard's aventures in two entangled wonderlandsRichard Gill
Since the loophole-free Bell experiments of 2020 and the Nobel prizes in physics of 2022, critics of Bell's work have retreated to the fortress of super-determinism. Now, super-determinism is a derogatory word - it just means "determinism". Palmer, Hance and Hossenfelder argue that quantum mechanics and determinism are not incompatible, using a sophisticated mathematical construction based on a subtle thinning of allowed states and measurements in quantum mechanics, such that what is left appears to make Bell's argument fail, without altering the empirical predictions of quantum mechanics. I think however that it is a smoke screen, and the slogan "lost in math" comes to my mind. I will discuss some other recent disproofs of Bell's theorem using the language of causality based on causal graphs. Causal thinking is also central to law and justice. I will mention surprising connections to my work on serial killer nurse cases, in particular the Dutch case of Lucia de Berk and the current UK case of Lucy Letby.
Multi-source connectivity as the driver of solar wind variability in the heli...Sérgio Sacani
The ambient solar wind that flls the heliosphere originates from multiple
sources in the solar corona and is highly structured. It is often described
as high-speed, relatively homogeneous, plasma streams from coronal
holes and slow-speed, highly variable, streams whose source regions are
under debate. A key goal of ESA/NASA’s Solar Orbiter mission is to identify
solar wind sources and understand what drives the complexity seen in the
heliosphere. By combining magnetic feld modelling and spectroscopic
techniques with high-resolution observations and measurements, we show
that the solar wind variability detected in situ by Solar Orbiter in March
2022 is driven by spatio-temporal changes in the magnetic connectivity to
multiple sources in the solar atmosphere. The magnetic feld footpoints
connected to the spacecraft moved from the boundaries of a coronal hole
to one active region (12961) and then across to another region (12957). This
is refected in the in situ measurements, which show the transition from fast
to highly Alfvénic then to slow solar wind that is disrupted by the arrival of
a coronal mass ejection. Our results describe solar wind variability at 0.5 au
but are applicable to near-Earth observatories.
Observation of Io’s Resurfacing via Plume Deposition Using Ground-based Adapt...Sérgio Sacani
Since volcanic activity was first discovered on Io from Voyager images in 1979, changes
on Io’s surface have been monitored from both spacecraft and ground-based telescopes.
Here, we present the highest spatial resolution images of Io ever obtained from a groundbased telescope. These images, acquired by the SHARK-VIS instrument on the Large
Binocular Telescope, show evidence of a major resurfacing event on Io’s trailing hemisphere. When compared to the most recent spacecraft images, the SHARK-VIS images
show that a plume deposit from a powerful eruption at Pillan Patera has covered part
of the long-lived Pele plume deposit. Although this type of resurfacing event may be common on Io, few have been detected due to the rarity of spacecraft visits and the previously low spatial resolution available from Earth-based telescopes. The SHARK-VIS instrument ushers in a new era of high resolution imaging of Io’s surface using adaptive
optics at visible wavelengths.
THE IMPORTANCE OF MARTIAN ATMOSPHERE SAMPLE RETURN.Sérgio Sacani
The return of a sample of near-surface atmosphere from Mars would facilitate answers to several first-order science questions surrounding the formation and evolution of the planet. One of the important aspects of terrestrial planet formation in general is the role that primary atmospheres played in influencing the chemistry and structure of the planets and their antecedents. Studies of the martian atmosphere can be used to investigate the role of a primary atmosphere in its history. Atmosphere samples would also inform our understanding of the near-surface chemistry of the planet, and ultimately the prospects for life. High-precision isotopic analyses of constituent gases are needed to address these questions, requiring that the analyses are made on returned samples rather than in situ.
Professional air quality monitoring systems provide immediate, on-site data for analysis, compliance, and decision-making.

Deep Behavioral Phenotyping in Systems Neuroscience for Functional Atlasing a...Ana Luísa Pinho
Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) provides means to characterize brain activations in response to behavior. However, cognitive neuroscience has been limited to group-level effects referring to the performance of specific tasks. To obtain the functional profile of elementary cognitive mechanisms, the combination of brain responses to many tasks is required. Yet, to date, both structural atlases and parcellation-based activations do not fully account for cognitive function and still present several limitations. Further, they do not adapt overall to individual characteristics. In this talk, I will give an account of deep-behavioral phenotyping strategies, namely data-driven methods in large task-fMRI datasets, to optimize functional brain-data collection and improve inference of effects-of-interest related to mental processes. Key to this approach is the employment of fast multi-functional paradigms rich on features that can be well parametrized and, consequently, facilitate the creation of psycho-physiological constructs to be modelled with imaging data. Particular emphasis will be given to music stimuli when studying high-order cognitive mechanisms, due to their ecological nature and quality to enable complex behavior compounded by discrete entities. I will also discuss how deep-behavioral phenotyping and individualized models applied to neuroimaging data can better account for the subject-specific organization of domain-general cognitive systems in the human brain. Finally, the accumulation of functional brain signatures brings the possibility to clarify relationships among tasks and create a univocal link between brain systems and mental functions through: (1) the development of ontologies proposing an organization of cognitive processes; and (2) brain-network taxonomies describing functional specialization. To this end, tools to improve commensurability in cognitive science are necessary, such as public repositories, ontology-based platforms and automated meta-analysis tools. I will thus discuss some brain-atlasing resources currently under development, and their applicability in cognitive as well as clinical neuroscience.
2. Objective:
1. identify the different international issues and trends
in global population;
2. synthesize the concept of globalization in relation
to demography and population; and
3. explain the theory of demographic transition and its
effects on global population.
3. Demography
-the statistical study of human populations
especially with reference to size and density,
distribution, and vital statistics.
Population
-the whole number of people or inhabitants in a
country or region
Multipolar world
-Involving several countries having most
of the power.
4. Demography
is a field in statistics that is concerned with births,
deaths, income, or the incidence of disease, which
later illustrates the changing structure of human
populations.
In the context of political science, demography is a
statistical study to determine world population that
can be used as a tool to identify certain phenomenon
in geopolitics, public administration, and others.
5. It is in a global civil society where transnational
non-governmental organizations and social
movements operate and offer an alternative to
transnational corporations.
The role of a global civil society in global
demography is its salient influence on institutional
decision-making, affecting the populations at large.
6. Global demography
-is about the trends and practices in world politics.
-It is the study of the issues and developments of
the global population.
7. According to Bonald Lee (2003),
demography is currently in transition; the mortality
rate declined followed by fertility, causing population
growth rates to accelerate and then to slow down
again. This demographic transition leads to low
fertility, long life, and an old population.
8. The global demographic transition all began in the
19th century when Europeans were declining in
mortality rate (Lee, 2003) and there were some rising
societies in Asian and Latin American regions.
The ongoing transition in global demography is
caused by formal migration and some historical
events, such as colonialism, inter-war reduction, and
post-world war migration.
9. The development from pre-industrial to industrialized
economy also caused this transition from high to low
mortality and fertility.
It is observed that most developed nations have
completed this transition and thus have low birth
rates and high income; developing nations, however,
are still in transition.
10. It is debatable whether higher income results in lower
population growth, or whether lower population leads
to higher income.
11. Lee (2003)
the transition to low mortality rate was influenced
by the reduction of contagious and infectious
diseases caused by advancements in medicine and
improved nutrition because of the presence of local
and international markets due to better transportation
of goods.
12. Meanwhile, the factors that led to low fertility rate
are the preference over child survival than
number of child births and the assumption that
raising children is more costly than the
consumption of goods, as children render less
economic contributions due to years spent on
education.
13. some of the trends in global demography:
• The economic bubble in some parts of the world
• wars in different states of every region,
• the existence of transnational crimes
• climate change and
• migration
14. Since globalization has something to do with the
population demand of a state, its effect on
demography in terms of overpopulation must be
noted.
Population is part of human demography and since
the world is shrinking, this condition develops a
concept of a globalized world wherein a state
population transcends into global population.
15. In the Philippine context, overpopulation did not
manifest. However, some experts in local or internal
migration suggest that due to the promise of a good
quality of living, Filipinos from rural areas Thove to
cities thus causing overpopulation. Internal migration
may cause Overpopulation in some areas of the
country.
