1.

Changes in the economic, politics and social realms have a huge effect on our daily

lives. It has also generated a variety of major obstacles, me as a student, globalization

increases my potential as a learner to gain and use skills. The awareness. Schooling,

learning difficulties and possibilities of information Age are faced by globalization. The

effect of globalization in the community is the flow of people is expedited, In particular,

for many the development of cities in the developed world is related to substandard

living. Then the effect of globalization to my family is I think it has a positive and

negative effect, because of globalization more media are flows it has a positive effect on

my family because it gives us an opportunity to communicate with our siblings that too

far from us, but it has also negative effect we have more exposure into global media

events than communicating each other.

2. The theory of globalization that has fasting impression on me is the theory of

feminism, which talks about the full social, economic and political equality of women. I

think that this is the theory of globalization that really marks on my mind because as a

woman I’ve experience different types of discrimination because of my gender that

shows inequality between men and women

3.Yes, Philippines is part of an emerging market, because Philippines is a developing

country. Also based on my own knowledge Philippines is one of the countries that relied

their livelihood in agriculture and export raw materials like coconut oil and electronic

product’s. The Philippines is also one of the countries that demonstrating the process of

creating its own transition economy from low income to less developed mostly pre

industrial economy to a higher standard living, modern, industrial economy. Philippines

is also an example of developed country but does not fully meet its standards.
4.No, because Burger King is an example Horizontal Market Integration, because it

shows a competitive strategy that can create economies of scale and produces

processed foods for the consumer market, and in according to our lectures the example

of horizontal integration is the two or more companies that produces the same goods

and services, and Burger King is one example of those companies . while on the other

hand I could conclude that The Coffee Beans and Tea Leaf is not example of horizontal

market integration because it is an example of Vertical market integration because

these two products is not a processed food and has its own brand and their trade is

between producers and buyer.

5.Semi-peripheral countries is buffer than core and peripheral countries, because semi-

peripheral country shares characteristics of core and peripheral countries. Semi-

peripheral countries like (South Korea, Taiwan, Mexico, Brazil, India, Nigeria, South

Africa) are less developed than core nations but more developed than peripheral

nations. They are the buffer between core and peripheral countries. China is not a core

country thus it belongs to semi-peripheral country
