Globalization has both benefits and problems according to the document. It benefits developed countries, foreign investors, and the richest people through opportunities for trade, investment, and business. However, it also causes problems like environmental degradation, terrorism, disease spread, cultural deterioration, climate change, unemployment, and overexploitation of natural resources. While globalization allows more participation in the global economy, its impacts are uneven and it remains a complex topic with reasonable debates on both sides of the issues.
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.

Global education and current trends from social abstract for the paperAmarwaha
The last century intense with a dream and aspirations and major social experiments has ended with general collapse of initiative for social transformation and total disillusionment with efforts of ‘development’ of the so called ‘developing’ nations. The so called victorious ideology-capitalism- has sought to consolidate its triumph with a call for ‘globalization’ for freeing of market, for unchecked hunting by private capital within and across nations with total disregard for the sovereignty rights of nations across the world. Globalization did not develop evenly: indeed, it was accompanied by inequality and conflict. The global development of economic and social relations has been paralleled by wide disparities between North and South.
(Neo)-Colonialism, globalised modernisation and global energy and environment...AkashSharma618775
This review looks at three issues which are key to the process of globalisation, namely; colonialism,
modernization, energy and environment. The benefits of globalised colonialism, though very weak, may include a
few of the following, viz: Increasing knowledge sharing, research, and skills; providing platforms for mutual
support, and benefits to synergize at various levels; encouraging multi-cultural contributions at different levels;
fostering global citizenship for greater harmony; promoting multiculturalism and acceptance to cultural diversity;
facilitating multi ways communications and interactions; promoting self-employment, digital entrepreneurship,
and outreach; and giving voice to everyone by promoting common language. On the contrary, the notable negative
impacts of globalised colonialism include: increasing the technological gaps and digital divides; creating more
legitimate opportunities for electronic colonialism; exploiting local resources and destroying local/ indigenous
cultures; increasing inequalities, conflicts, and clashes; promoting cultural imperialism; strengthening a
symmetrical communication, facilitating haves; contributing to jobless growth and promoting outsourcing; and, it
is promoting voiceless growth and language imperialism. It important to note that energy is a driving factor in the
world economic development, World energy consumption contributes to pollution and environmental
deterioration and global house emissions which therefore calls upon world economist and politicians to set
environmental regulations. It’s also crucial to transform the current energy systems with a transition to renewable
source and their efficient use. For example, globalized modernization has today has become a major sort of debate
among academicians, policy makers and NGOs. Finally, our review notes the various merits of globalize

SOCIAL JUSTICE AND SOCIOLOGY:
AGENDAS FOR THE
TWENTY-FIRST CENTURY
JOE R, FEAGIN
University of Florida
The world's peoples face daunting challenges in the
twenty-first century. While apologists herald the globaliza-
tion of capitalism, many people on our planet experience
recurring economic exploitation, immiseration, and envi-
ronmental crises linked to capitalism's spread. Across the
globe social movements continue to raise the issues of
social justice and democracy. Given the new century's
serious challenges, sociologists need to rediscover their
roots in a sociology committed to social justice, to cultivate and extend the long-
standing "countersystem" approach to research, to encourage greater self-reflection
in sociological analysis, and to re-emphasize the importance ofthe teaching of soci-
ology. Finally, more sociologists should examine the big social questions of this
century, including the issues of economic exploitation, social oppression, and the
looming environmental crises. And, clearly, more sociologists should engage in the
study of alternative social futures, including those of more just and egalitarian soci-
eties. Sociologists need to think deeply and imaginatively about sustainable social
futures and to aid in building better human societies.
WE STAND today at the beginning ofa challenging new century. Like
ASA Presidents before me, I am conscious
of the honor and the responsibility that this
address carries with it, and I feel a special
obligation to speak about the role of sociol-
ogy and sociologists in the twenty-first cen-
tury. As we look forward, let me quote W. E.
B. Du Bois, a pathbreaking U.S. sociologist.
In his last autobiographical statement, Du
Bois (1968) wrote:

Levelwise PageRank with Loop-Based Dead End Handling Strategy : SHORT REPORT ...Subhajit Sahu
Abstract — Levelwise PageRank is an alternative method of PageRank computation which decomposes the input graph into a directed acyclic block-graph of strongly connected components, and processes them in topological order, one level at a time. This enables calculation for ranks in a distributed fashion without per-iteration communication, unlike the standard method where all vertices are processed in each iteration. It however comes with a precondition of the absence of dead ends in the input graph. Here, the native non-distributed performance of Levelwise PageRank was compared against Monolithic PageRank on a CPU as well as a GPU. To ensure a fair comparison, Monolithic PageRank was also performed on a graph where vertices were split by components. Results indicate that Levelwise PageRank is about as fast as Monolithic PageRank on the CPU, but quite a bit slower on the GPU. Slowdown on the GPU is likely caused by a large submission of small workloads, and expected to be non-issue when the computation is performed on massive graphs.

3. Introduction……..
Globalization is a complex and multi faceted set of
having diverse and widespread impacts on human
societies worldwide. It can be defined as “changing the
nature of human interaction across a wide range of
spheres including the economic, political, social and
technological and environmental issues the process of
change can be described as globalizing in the sense
that boundaries of various kinds are becoming eroded.
This erosion can be seen to be occurring along three
dimensions: spatial, temporal and cognitive.” (Lee,
2003).
4. Introduction……
Historically globalization has evolved through three
historical phases. In his best-selling book The Earth Is
Flat, Thomas Friedman characterized three phases;
Globalization 1.0 lasted from 1492 to 1800 and
“shrank the world from a size large to a size medium.”
This was the age of mercantilism and colonialism. The
driving force was brawn, not brains “how much
muscle, how much horse power, wind power, or, later,
steam power.
5. Introduction
Secondly, Globalization 2.0 ran from 1800 to the mid-
twentieth century; it was ended by World War II. It
“shrank the world from a size medium to a size small.”
This was the age of pax Britannica. The driving force
was new institutions, particularly the emergence of
global markets and multinational corporations
(MNCs).
6. Introduction…..
Thirdly, Globalization 3.0 arrived during the second
half of the twentieth century and “is shrinking the
world from a size small to a size tiny and flattening the
playing field at the same time.” This is stage of pax
Americana, and the driving force is the internet, “the
new found power for individuals to collaborate and
compete globally.” Individuals now communicate,
innovate, form groups, conduct business, and move
money worldwide just the way MNCs do.
7. Continue…..
Brains, not brawn or institutions, shape the world
economy. And that world now increasingly flat,
meaning that every country and civilization can take
part. China, India, and potentially, Muslim countries
“every colour of human rainbow” can participate in the
globalization chat room (Nau, 2008). However all is
not perfect by the French President Jacques Chirac,
once expressed his concern about globalization he said
that Globalization was not improving the lives of those
most in need of their promised benefits.
8. PROBLEMS WITH GLOBALIZATION
Environmental pollution; for over a quarter century
researchers have been cognizant of the potential for
the rise in trade to negatively impact the environment.
Trade has grown substantially over the past 50 years,
both in value and volume. Between 1951 and 2004, the
average annual growth rate of world trade (by tonnage)
was 5.7%; when measured by present value, the
average growth rate was 7.4% (Hummels, 2007, p. 133).
9. Continue….
Moreover, there has been little (to no) effort exerted at
linking up the two broad literatures concerning the
direct and indirect effects of globalization on our
natural environment. The direct effects include
emissions and environmental damage associated with
the physical movement of goods between exporters
and importers. This includes emissions from fossil fuel
use, oil spills, and introductions of exotic species. At
the same time, growth in trade and foreign direct
investment has numerous indirect effects
10. problems
Secondly, Terrorism problem; terrorism in general
term s refers to the intentional destruction of
resources, in particular physical assets the scale, and
knowledge assets, i.e. the lives and knowledge of one
individual or one group of people. In the eighties
already attacks against business or other private
interest added up to three quarters of all “anti-US-
American” terrorists attacks (Kovsky, 1990).
11. Continue….
The Information Technology-revolution and trade
liberation did also lead to a re-organisation of and the
forming of new alliances between different terrorist
groups. IT offers an effective and inexpensive way to
co-ordinate terrorist activities across borders.
Moreover, IT offers also an instrument for learning
about the functioning of firms, governments, markets
and their weak points or symbols.
12. Continue…..
For example, it is not self-evident that somebody
abhorring western capitalism will anticipate the
symbolic value of WTC, i.e. meaning Wall Street,
while setting in the hills of Afghanistan. Another
example is the shrewdness by which venerable Islamic
charity organizations were hijacked to move large
sums of money around the globe (Schneider, 2002).
13. Problems……
Thirdly, Spread of diseases; the flow of information,
goods, capital and people across political and geographical
boundaries has helped spread of deadliest infectious
diseases known to human. Through history, early diseases
that spread from Asia to Europe were Bubonic plague,
influenza of various types and similar infectious diseases.
In the current era of globalization, the world is more
interdependent than at any time, Efficient and inexpensive
transportation has left few places in accessible and
increased global trade in agriculture has brought more and
more people in contact with animal diseases that have
subsequently jumped species cited from
14. Continue….
[Daulaire, N.(July 12, 1999) Globalization and Health].
Also infectious diseases arise from intensified trade in
particular goods and services this can be observed in
the trends towards globalization of the food industry
data from industrialized countries indicates that up to
10% of populations are affected annually by food borne
diseases (Karfestein et al, 1997).
15. Problems…
Fourthly, Cultural deteriorations; the central
problem of today’s global interactions is the tension
between cultural homogenization and cultural
heterogenization argument subspecialties’ into either
an argument about Americanization or an argument
about commoditization also cultural deterioration had
created new markets for films companies, art
impresarios and travel agencies in other way cultural
deterioration is the one of the central forces of the
modern world [Schech and Haggis, 2002]
16. Problems….
Fifthly, Global climate change; current concerns about
global climate can be divided into two main subject; rising
average land and sea surface temperatures (‘global
warming”), and increasing frequency of extreme weather
condition in many parts of the world. There are
aetiologically linked, the climatic change has contained the
range of infectious diseases, while weather affecting the
timing and intensity of outbreaks (Dobson and carper,
1993). Principally due to excessive and inefficient
combustion of fossil fuels, leading to the build up of green
house gases that trap heat within the atmosphere
(McMichael, 1993
17. Continue…..
Patterns of precipitation have also changed: arid and semi-
arid regions are becoming drier, while other areas,
especially in mid-to-high latitudes, are becoming wetter,
with a disproportionate increase in frequency of the
heaviest precipitation events.
Sixthly, Unemployment problem; during the past 100
years, enormous advances in technology have
revolutionized most aspects of human activity, including
commerce, communications, travel, engineering, and
health care. These developments have both the products
and crucial driving forces of globalization (Sc
holte, 2000).
18. Continue…
Technological change since the last quarter twentieth
century has been dominated by unprecedented
advances in information and communication
technologies (ICTs). ICTs have fundamentally altered
the speed and nature of communications in personal
and professional settings, Transforming societies and
economies. They are increasingly recognized as the
causes of unemployment in various sectors as there is
reduction in number of labours replaced by the
modern machines and modern skills.
19. Problems….
Lastly, Overexploitation of natural resources; As
the first decade of the new millennium continues to
unfold. Africa and Africans continue to face many
serious problems of poverty and deprivation; however
Africa is blessed with a lot of natural resources such as
minerals, natural gases, fuels and forestry resources. It
has been suggested that African states, weakened
considerably by the forces of globalization,
20. Continue….
large countries with a significant level of market power
usually behave like monopolistic firms and attempt to
manipulate supply to maximize their revenues from
exports. Thus, countries that have market power
impose restrictions on trade and in dose investment in
small countries for their benefits as through over
exploitation of natural resources (Klay, 2013 p.147).
21. Who does Globalization benefits
Although, the world now increasingly flat, meaning
that every country and civilization can take part.
China, India, and potentially, Muslim countries “every
colour of human rainbow” can participate in the
globalization chat room (Nau, 2008). But There are
most people who does benefit globalization: Foreign
investors, Developed countries and Rich people (upper
class;
22. Continue….
Developed countries; the emergence of the global
economy has been facilitated, since 1945, by the significant
growth of international trade, as well as of regional and
international organizations that govern trade relation since
the creation of the General Agreement on Tariffs and trade
(GATT) in 1994, member states have undertaken successive
rounds of negotiations to reduce barriers to trade, 1995.
The economic impacts of this proliferation i bilateral,
regional and international trade agreements has been
enormous, since 1950, gross world production has
increased five-fold while world trade has increased
fourteen-fold (Lang, 2001)
23. Continue….
However most benefited on this trade revolution are
developed countries as they control world market,
through exportation of manufactured goods to the rest
of the worlds which from has generated a lot of income
and triggered development in economically, socially,
culturally, politically and military affairs
24. Continue…..
Foreign investors; Economic globalization describes
the restructuring of the world economy, from one
centred on production and exchange relations
between economic entities located in different
countries (international economy), towards “a highly
complex, kaleidoscope structure involving the
fragmentation of many production processes and their
geographical relocation on a global scale in ways which
slice through national boundaries”(Dicken, 1998)
25. Continue….
This has emphasized influx of foreign investors various
countries blessed resources for stance African
countries which are gifted a lot of natural resources i.e.
minerals, energy resources. Globalization has
benefited by investors as through free trade foreigners
across boundaries to the lest of the world for
investment also technological advancement and
transport system has marked a easy way for investors
to persuade their manage mental functions.
26. Continue…..
Richest people (Upper class); A part from developed
countries and foreign investors another part benefited
from globalization Examples include global
environmental change, undocumented population
mobility (e.g. trafficking of people), and money
laundering along with changes to spatial boundaries,
Lee (2003)argues that globalization is leading to
changes in how we experience and perceive time.
Globalization is shaping the timeframe in which
27. Continue….
natural and human-induced phenomena take place; in
developing countries richest people are the one who
benefits globalization as they have a large capital to
invest in various insures and also use capital to buy
machines from abroad for stance in Tanzania
BAKHRESA and MOHAMED DEWJI is an example of
the rich people who benefit globalization as has used it
by construction of industries which manufacture foods
and other domestics products.
28. conclusion
Generally; despite the contested nature of
globalization and the continued debates about its
scope, pace and driving force, there is a clear need for
better conceptual and empirical understanding of the
specific impacts of globalization. And it is shown that
globalization has both positive and negative
consequences on the human life some of the positive
consequences are
29. Continue….
Advancement on transport system i.e. construction of
electronic trains, simplicity on communication among
the people i.e. people in America can communicate
direct with one from Africa, simplicity on trade
activities i.e. advancement in money system make the
trade easy one can do bank transactions while sited at
home, Easy narration of information from one place to
another this is due to the development of Information
Technology(IT), Globalization has facilitated
improvement on security system and military
advancement.
