C. ANALYSIS
⮚ Compare and Contrast: State and Nation
⮚ How is Nation- State created?
→ What is a STATE?
- An organization, composed of numerous agencies led and
coordinated by the state’s leadership (executive authority), with the
ability or authority to create and implement the binding rules for all
the people as well as the parameters of rule-making for other social
organizations in a given territory, using force if necessary to have its
way.
- political entity bounded by a territory and headed by a
government.
→ What is a NATION?
- A complex phenomenon shaped by a collection of cultural,
political, and psychological factors
→ Both nation and state share the fact that they refer to a single
group of people despite the difference on how these groups are
organized, with one stressing a more cultural organization and the
other a more political one.
⮚ How is Nation- State created?
→ refers to a political unit with defined territory, government, and
constituents that more or less share the same culture and identity.
→ in a Nation-State, the political organization and the government
are supported by a cultural base of imagined unity and identity.
- Example is Southeast Asia. The Philippines from the time of
Spanish colonization. Singapore from the British. Vietnam from
French.
⮚ What is GLOBALIZATION?
– Refers to processes whereby many social relations become
relatively delinked from territorial geography, so that human lives are
increasingly played out in the world as a single place.
→ What is its Positive and Negative effect?

⮚ What is a Form of Government?

→ determined by: 1.) the number of rulers; 2.) the way power is
exercised by these rulers; 3.) ideologies that guide the government
→ What are the 3 Basic Forms of Government:
1. Democracy – the rule of the people or the many
2. Oligarchy – the rule of the priviledge few
3. Tyrrany – the rule of one individual
→ According to Aristotle:

Monarchy/Kingship Tyrrany

 D. ABSTRACTION
® Part of the definition of nation-states is that the constituents more
oe less share a common culture and identity. In the Philippines, which is
composed of more than 100 different cultural groups, what do you think
is that common Filipino identity and culture that binds us?
® If you were to choose and adapt a foreign cultural trait brought
about by globalization into our country, what would that be? Why?

E. APPLICATION
⮚ Flash the saying in the monitor, “Globalization means we have to re-
examine our ideas and look at ideas from other countries, other
cultures and open ourselves to them.” – Herbie Hancock
⮚ In your opinion and personal experience, be able to identify the
advantage and disadvantage of Globalization.
