WHAT IS GLOBALIZATION?
• Globalization is the increase of coverage among societies and involvements of
intersocietal connections. It is a concept interconnected with various countries
and cultures along with the different approaches in studying this field (Sheffield
et al., n.d.).
• Globalization is a challenged idea that refers to mostly contradicting social
processes (Steger, n.d.).
• Globalization refers to all interconnections among people and states; among
industries and markets; and between nature and society (Ruggie, 2003).
As you may have noticed within these definitions, two words are constant- connection
and society. In order for globalization to happen, connections need to be established
between societies. In this sense, one society can help and influence another, may gain
advantage from globalization, or vice versa. Globalization is a form of bigger
engagement within entities whereas these entities have something to offer for one
another. The idea of globalization is sort of a confusing one since many ideas are linked
to it because it is a concept which is applicable to almost every discipline and aspect
of society.
The following reasons to study globalization as indicated are derived from the different
definitions of globalization that were previously stated; Awareness, Application, and
Opportunities. These ideas interplay with one another because if we are aware enough
of globalization, we are able to apply the ideas of it in our decision-making and grab
the opportunities that globalization may offer.
PERSPECTIVES ON GLOBALIZATION
As we have already defined globalization pertaining to the increasing pace and scope
of interconnections crisscrossing the globe, I consider 4 perspectives contributing to
globalization: Information technology, Economic factors, Cultural Factors, and Political
changes.
Perspective in Culture
Cultural globalization refers to the rapid movement of ideas, attitudes, meanings,
values and cultural products across national borders. Here are some examples:
• Migration - This is an important aspect of cultural globalization, and in this
sense, this process has been going on for several centuries, with languages,
religious beliefs, and values being spread by military conquest, missionary work,
and trade. However, in the last 30 years, the process of cultural globalization has
dramatically intensified due technological advances in both transportation and
communications technology.
• Food - The globalization of food is one of the most obvious examples of cultural
globalization – food consumption is an important aspect of culture and most
societies around the world have diets that are unique to them, however the
cultural globalization of food has been promoted by fast food giants such as
McDonald’s, Coca-Cola and Starbucks. The spread of these global food
corporations has arguably led to the decline of local diets and eating traditions
• Sports - The Globalization of sport is another fairly obvious example of cultural
globalization – think of all the international sporting events that take place – most
notably the World Cup and The Olympics, and Formula 1, which bind millions
together in a shared, truly global, ‘leisure experience.’
The emergence of global sporting events such as The Olympics, football brings people
together across borders. Music, film, and celebrity culture more generally often draw
audiences from several different countries.
Global consumption patterns have become increasingly similar in recent decades, with
the rise of shopping malls and online shopping. International migration is a key aspect
of cultural globalization. The more people move around the globe, the more global
connections there tend to be. There is an emerging global risk consciousness – the
sense that we are all at threat from global problems such as the environmental Crisis,
Perspective in Economics
Economic globalization involves the global expansion of international capitalism, free
markets and the increase in international trade, a process which has accelerated since
the 1950s. Nearly every country on earth now imports and exports more from and to
other countries than it did immediately after World War Two, and even ex-communist
countries are now part of the global capitalist economy.
Britain for example imports around 60% of its food, with only 40% of the food supply
being grown in Britain, and if you take a look around any classroom, or any living room,
and you will probably find that the majority of products were imported from
somewhere else.
This post focuses on four key aspects of economic globalization: global supply chains,
the growth of transnational corporations, and the increasing importance of the
postmodern, weightless economy.
Perspective in Politics
• Political globalization refers to the growth of the worldwide political system, may
it be in size and complexity. In this perspective, the system includes national
governments, their governmental and intergovernmental organizations as well
as government-independent elements of global civil society such as
international non-governmental organizations and social movement
organizations.
• One of the key aspects of political globalization is the declining importance of
the nation-state and the rise of other actors on the political scene.
• The creation and existence of the United Nations is called one of the classic
examples of political globalization.
During (1990s) was the start of self-conscious academic inquiries into multiple process
of Globalization. Academics have remained divided on the use of different
methodological approaches, evidence in gauging the extent, impact, and direction of
globalization, also its normative implications.
According to Fredrick Jameson (1998), there seems to be little utility in forcing such a
complex set of social forces as globalization into a single analytic framework. It seems
to make more sense to various approaches to globalization by linking them on the
debates that have been taking place into two separate but related arena. One battle
has most fought within the narrow walls of academia, while the other one has been
unfolding in the popular arena of public discourse.
Academic Discourse usually happens in wealthy countries including the USA and UK.
Their influence reflects existing power relations and global dominance. Although they
share a common intellectual framework. They have different views on Globalization.
This is the reason why globalization itself is a fragmented, incomplete, uneven, and
contradictory set of social processes.
Since globalization falls outside the boundaries of established academic discipline, the
study of globalization invited armies of social scientists, scholars in the humanities, and
even natural scientists to leave their mark on an intellectual terra incognita.
Financial Flows
Financial flows in globalization could help to raise the growth rate in developing
countries nevertheless, it indirectly weakens growth through appreciation of the real
exchange rate. This work focuses on the interaction between international and
domestic financial markets and section members conduct research on related topics.
Financial flows consolidate foreign direct investment (FDI), foreign aid, remittances,
portfolio investment, and other flows. It follows the movement of funds that are put to
use for productive economic purposes. In addition, it occurs at the national level, with
the government collecting revenues in the form of taxes or issuing bonds and spending
proceeds on various public projects or investments
Investment and Transnational Corporation
The fourth driver of globalization is an investment and transnational corporation. When
we say investment, it means the longer-term movements of money to buy or to
establish businesses. One of the major types of investment flows is FDI or Foreign
Direct Investment whose purpose is to start a new business or buy a proportion of the
share in an existing business. In an FDI investors have a say in the decision-making of
a business and they are for the long term. Foreign Domestic Investor has significantly
increased links between countries where investors set up operations in new countries
increasing involvement in the business. The biggest investor in this transnational
corporation for example is Apple, Nike, and McDonald’s. This provided money,
people, infrastructure, and knowledge. All of this increases the links between
economies.
Pre-historic Period
Globalization began during the prehistoric period, which lasted from 10,000 BCE to
3,500 CE. Prehistoric man expanded over the planet in tiny groups of hunter-gatherers
during this time. They were busy with hunting and survival, and the prospect of
globalization did not exist until the domestication of animals and the expansion of
farming. As agrarian societies evolved and the need for food became less important,
society began to differentiate a hierarchy and allow for the growth of different social
classes. During this time, the patriarchal society of settled groups that exist today arose.
Communication was constrained by the limited technology available, and as a result,
this age did not witness much in the way of globalization, yet it was a time of a great
human expansion.
Pre-modern Period
Large towns with distinct kinds of people began to sprout up across ancient near east
Asia during the Premodern period (3500 BCE to 1500 CE), giving rise to the present
understanding of globalization. The Mesopotamians' creation of cuneiform writing was
a significant step forward in communication technology. It enables the recording of
facts such as financial records, allowing a huge quantity of information to be recalled
and sent. The ultimate discovery of the Rosetta stone, which included the same
paragraph translated into three ancient languages, demonstrates that pre-modern
societies communicated in a variety of written forms.The invention of the wheel was
also important for globalization since it allowed products to be moved across great
distances and allowed carts and architectural technology to advance. This resulted in
the construction of highways, which resulted in increased trade and communication
across the expanding world and empires. It was a period when huge civilizations
flourished. With enormous improvements in engineering technology and art, the
Egyptian kingdom prospered. The Chinese empire developed along with
improvements in mathematics, science, and military, and they communicated with
other global powers. During this period, Greek culture emerged, as did a democratic
system that serves as the cornerstone for many modern countries.
For many years, the Greeks ruled a vast territory and developed as a center for the arts
and philosophy. In the Western world, the Roman Empire was the dominant force.
Their kingdom was large, and it saw periods of democracy as well as absolute
monarchs. They ruled over much of Western Europe. It spread Latin over the continent
after expanding into the United Kingdom. During this period, the first roads between
Rome and controlled territories appeared. The Roman Empire eventually got
Christianized and collapsed into the Holy Roman Empire, which might be seen as a
proto-intergovernmental organization of the past. Within the empire, independent
nations existed but were ruled by the ecclesiastical body of the period, the pope.
Empires laid the groundwork for the first global commerce routes. Using emerging
transportation technology like roads, improved ships, and animal-drawn carts and
wagons. Religion, technology, and illness all migrated across empires, as did goods.
The era of the empire was a time of significant scientific breakthroughs, but following
the fall of the Roman Empire, the expansion of technology in the Western world
stagnated. During the Middle Ages, when people struggled to survive in a colder
environment, trade slowed. The ruling class was able to dominate all of the main
resources and the trading system, thanks to the development of a feudal system that
held lower-class people down. Merchant ships were a terrific method to trade because
they were faster than walking, but they also carried illness. During the Middle Ages, the
black death spread over Europe and other parts of the world, eradicating about one-
third of the worldwide population. This was the period when globalization had the
potential to harm the globe. Because goods and people were going all over the place,
the sickness was following them.
Modern Period
The nineteenth-century saw the emergence of globalization in its present form.
Industrialization enabled low-cost manufacture of household products through
economies of scale, while fast population increase produced long-term demand for
commodities. Globalization in this period was decisively shaped by nineteenth-century
imperialism. After the First and Second Opium Wars, which opened up China to
foreign trade, and the completion of the British conquest of India, the vast populations
of these regions became ready consumers of European exports. During this time, Sub-
Saharan Africa and the Pacific islands were integrated into the global system.
Meanwhile, the European conquest of areas of the world, particularly Sub-Saharan
Africa, produced important natural resources such as rubber, diamonds, and coal, and
fueled commerce and investment between European imperial powers, their colonies,
and the United States. The first phase of "modern globalization" began to unravel at
the turn of the twentieth century, with World War I, as the European-dominated
network was increasingly confronted with images and stories of "others," and thus took
it upon themselves to play the role of the world's guardians of universal law and
morality. Racist and unequal behaviors were part of their activities as they sought
materials and resources from other parts of the world. The growth in global trade prior
to 1850, just before World War I broke out in 1914, provided incentives for direct
colonial authority bases in the global South. As other European currencies grew more
widely disseminated, the necessity to hold resource bases became critical.
Since World War II, globalization has been fueled in part by governments' efforts to
eliminate trade barriers. Their efforts resulted in the Bretton Woods Conference, an
agreement by the world's leading leaders to establish the foundation for international
trade and finance, as well as the establishment of many international organizations to
monitor globalization processes.
Contemporary Era
The new and intense processes of modern globalization are distinguished by the
increasing interconnectivity of globalization's economic, cultural, and political
processes. Each of these processes includes ongoing contacts between various
societies and their separate sectors. These globalization processes have been defined
by an ever-increasing mutual impingement of various societies and social sectors
throughout the world. This procedure opens the door to increasingly intense clashes
between them. These dynamics comprise the ongoing shift of formerly peripheral,
'local,' non-hegemonic organizations and sectors to the core of their respective
national and internal systems. That takes us to now when we are seeing a new wave of
globalization. In a world increasingly controlled by two global powers, the United
States and China, the cyber world is the next frontier of globalization. The digital
economy, which was in its infancy during the third wave of globalization, is now a force
to be reckoned with, thanks to e-commerce, digital services, and 3D printing. It is aided
further by artificial intelligence, yet it is vulnerable to cross-border hacking and
cyberattacks. At the same time, negative globalization is spreading as a result of the
worldwide impact of climate change. Extreme weather occurrences are caused by
pollution in one section of the earth. And the destruction of trees in the few remaining
"green lungs" of the planet, such as the Amazon rainforest, has a further catastrophic
effect on not just the world's biodiversity, but also its ability to cope with dangerous
greenhouse gas emissions. It appears that technological advancement, like
globalization, is unavoidable. However, it is always altering. So, how would
Globalization manifest itself? In the future years, we will have to address that question.
DIMENSIONS OF GLOBALIZATION
Economic Dimension
As per the Washington International Trade Association (n.d.), this dimension deals with
the growing interdependence and interconnection of national economic sectors
around the world mainly focused on trade and financial flows. This was a result of the
widespread advancement of technology, which allows the growth of cross-border
exchange of goods and services, worldwide capital flows, and drastic developments in
innovation due to the constantly advancing relevance of information in all sorts of
innovative means and marketization as the driving forces (Shangquan, 2020).
Political Dimension
Political globalization, as presented by Steger (2017), is the process of intensifying and
expanding political interconnections around the world. 'The political dimension of
globalization' examines how these methods raise a number of critical political matters,
including state sovereignty, the growing influence of multilateral institutions, and the
possibilities for regional and global governance, international migration, and
environmental decisions that benefit our planet.
Cultural Dimension
Increased cultural flows around the world result in cultural globalization. The conflict
between cultural homogeneity and cultural differences is the emphasis of "The Cultural
Dimension of Globalization," which broadly defines culture as people's views,
traditions, and social behavior. The global mainstream media is frequently blamed for
the globalization of culture. New technologies such as satellite television and the
Internet have produced a continuous stream of media content that has had a significant
impact on nations and cultures, intensely impacting how people actually live their daily
lives. Language diversity is dwindling as the world becomes more connected and more
languages become obsolete (Steger, 2020).
Ecological Dimension
The Ecological Dimension focuses on how economic, political, and cultural aspects of
globalization have influenced ecological issues on which manmade threats, including
Chernobyl, the Deepwater Horizon oil spill, and the Fukushima nuclear meltdown,
have had global repercussions. This means that their manifestations were not
constrained to one country's borders (Steger, 2020). The process of globalization
exacerbates uncontrolled population growth, environmental degradation, and climate
change. Some effort has been made, such as at the Paris Climate Conference in 2015,
but it is slow. The environment has been adversely affected by this wave of
globalization, and it continues to remain to be seen whether the breaking down of
boundaries would then lend a hand to us in collaborating on a solution.

EMERGING IDEOLOGY
OF GLOBALISM
Capitalism
Capitalism is the dominant economic framework and
system in many parts of the world today.
It is primarily premised on the “profit motive”

any individual or entity in this world the profit motive
partly explains why.

movements.
This claim that globalization is about market liberalization and global
integration strengthens what is essentially a contingent political undertaking as
tact. Globalists have succeeded because they have persuaded the public that
their view of globalization is an objective, or at the very least neutral, diagnosis
of the situations it professes to examine:
The sense of inevitability also helps to persuade the general public. allowing
the general people to share the burdens of globalization, so promoting an
Neoliberal politicians frequently cite the following justification: 'It is the market
that made us cut social programmes.' As German President Roman Herzog put
it in a nationally televised appeal, the unstoppable push of global forces will
force everyone to make compromises.
Robert Kaplan reminds his readers “The purpose of US power is not power
itself; it is the fundamentally liberal purpose of sustaining the key
characteristics of an orderly world. Those characteristics include basic
political stability; the idea of liberty, pragmatically conceived; respect for
property; economic freedom; and representative government.
At this moment in time it is American power, and American Power only, that
can serve as an organizing principle for the worldwide expansion of a liberal
civil society” – The Hard Edge of American Values
Terrorism prevents global economic progress and free trade. There are still
doubts about why the war on terror occurs or is included, but it is because it
aids in the war against terror, and terrorism has become a global phenomena
as a result of advancement, technological breakthroughs, communication, and
transportation accessibility. The most effective way to combat terrorism is to
use international law in conjunction with the appropriate institutions to foster
international cooperation.

Nation-State
Nation
The nation, in another term, is the people inside a country. These humans
are connected with each other, and this idea is called nationalism.
Example:
Iceland was recognized as a fully sovereign state with an agreement with
Denmark, an independent country in personal union with Denmark
through a common monarch.
Sweden is a Scandinavian country in Northern Europe. It had evolved
into a centralized nation with Stockholm as its capital by the 16th
century.
State
The state comprises all the rules and laws, government personnel and their
titles, physical boundaries, and those who define them. From a political and
practical sense, the state makes a country run.
Example:
The Philippines is a sovereign state. This country has territory, its
netizens, government, and sovereignty.
California entered the union as a free, non-slavery state after the heated
debate in U.S. congress arising out of the slavery issue. It became the 31st
state in history.
Nation-State
The nation-state is an organizational system in which people who have a
similar identity live within a country with well-defined boundaries and a
single government. It also determines the language we speak, the holidays
we celebrate, and the laws we follow. The nation-state is held together by its
physical boundaries, administration, and the belief that its citizens are
linked to one another. The nation-state combines two principles: the first
one is state sovereignty which was first articulated in the Peace of
Westphalia(1648); it recognizes that states have the right to rule their own
territories without intervention from the outside world, and the second one
is the principle of national sovereignty which recognizes national
communities' right to self-government.
Example:
Japan is considered a nation-state because its territories, governments,
and residents share the same culture. It also has national symbols such as
the national flag, national anthem, and often a wide range of national
emblems.
Egypt can be regarded as the first nation-state in the reason that this
Dominance of Nation-State
The role of the nation-state in globalization is complex in part because of
the varying definitions and shifting concepts of globalization. Globalization
is commonly characterized as the fading or complete elimination of
economic, social, and cultural borders between nation-states. However, it
has been defined in a variety of ways.
Nation-State Decline
In the international system, nation-states have remained one of the
essential interaction units. However, its importance in international
relations is being questioned today. Some researchers have termed the
'end of the nation-state system,' while others have envisioned the
'decline of the nation-state.'
SOME OF THE MAIN REASONS FOR
THE DECLINE OF NATION-STATE
SYSTEM:
INCREASED INTERDEPENDENCE
The age of mass production, resulting from advances in scientific,
technological, and industrial fields, and the resulting ability to meet rising
demands for people's socioeconomic well-being, the communications
revolution, increased mobility of people around the world, and so on, have all
contributed to increased and ever-increasing international interdependence.
The rise of Globalization increases interdependence between nations. To
some, Globalization is generally seen as the 'decline of economic, social, and
cultural borders between nation-states, and the notion of a nation-state
becomes less relevant.
NATIONALISTIC UNIVERSALISM
In this age of internationalism, a nation-state must frame its national
interests in a way that aids the achievement of widely acknowledged
international relations goals.
Nation-State in the
Globalizing World
While decreasing obstacles to international trade and communication are
sometimes a danger to nation-states, these tendencies have persisted
throughout history. Air and sea did not abolish individual nations'
sovereignty of transportation, which enabled same-day travel to different
continents and dramatically boosted trade between countries.
Globalization is a force that has altered the way nations interact with one
another, notably in international trade.
Regionalism
Regionalism
Regionalism is a political ideology that seeks to increase the political
power, influence, and/or self-determination of the people of one or more
subnational regions.

Global Migration
Written by Joan Lascota
Demographics is the study
of a population based on
factors sunch as age, race,
and sex.
Demography is the
statistical study of the
human population.
Demography examines the
size, structure, and
movements of populations
over space and time.
Asia is the most populous continent in the world, with 4.68 billion people accounting
for nearly 59.5% of the world population as of 2021. Africa is the second-largest
continent by population, with around 1.37 billion people, or 17.4% of the world's
population. Only these two continents have crossed the one billion milestones. Asia
and Africa, together share about 77% of the global population. Europe has a
population of around 748 million (9.50%), North America is home to around 597
million (7.58%), and South America, the second least populated continent, has about
434 million inhabitants (5.51%). Oceania (43 million) is the smallest continent on the
basis of the population if Antarctica is excluded as there are no population estimates
for Antarctica by the UN (World Population Prospects 2019).

Global Migration
Written by Joan Lascota
In 2021, China remains the country with the largest population in the
world, with more than 1.4 billion people. India has the second-largest
population in the world, with just under 1.4 billion inhabitants. With an
estimated difference of fewer than 20 million people, experts predict that
India will overtake China as the most populous nation on earth by the
middle of the decade.
URBAN
Urban simply refers to the region or area which is densely populated and
possesses the characteristics of man-made surroundings. The people
residing in such areas are engaged in trade, commerce, or services. In this
settlement, there is high-scale industrialization that results in better
employment opportunities. The Urban settlement is not confined to the
cities only, but towns and suburbs (suburban areas) are also included in it.
There are many advantages of living in urban areas like easy access to
various amenities, better transportation facilities, entertainment and
education options, and health facilities. Although it suffers certain
drawbacks like pollution, caused due to large scale industrialization and
means of transportation like buses, trains, cars, and so on, leading to an
increase in health problems in the people living in that area.
RURAL
The use of population control to prevent economic crisis has its critics.
Betsy Hartman disagrees with the advocates of Neo-Mathusian theory
and accused governments of using population control as a “substitute
for social justice and much-needed reforms – sunch as land
distribution, employment creation, provision of mass education and
health care.
Neo-Malthusianism refers to the belief that population control through
the use of contraception is essential for the survival of the earth’s
human population.
Global Migration
Written by Joan Lascota
The “Green Revolution” created high-yielding varieties of rice and
other cereals, and along with the development of new methods of
cultivation increased yields globally, but more particularly in the
developing world.
Between 1950 and 1984 global grain production increased by over 250
percent, allowing agriculture to keep global famine under control.
Scholars and policymakers agree with the neo-Malthusians but
suggest that if governments pursue population control programs, they
must include “more inclusive growth” and “greener economic growth”
SECURITY
Today’s global population has reached 7.9 billion, and it is estimated to
increase to 9.5 billion in 2050, then 11.2 billion by 2100.
95% of this population growth will happen in developing countries,
with demographers predicting that by the middle of this century,
several countries will have tripped their population.
Global Migration
Written by Joan Lascota
Demographers predict that the world population will stabilize
by 2050 to 9 billion, although they warn that feeding this
population will be an immense challenge.
The decline in fertility and the existence of a young productive
population, however, may not be enough to offset this concern
over food security.
The Food and Agriculture Organization (FAQ) warns that in
order for countries to mitigate the impact of population
growth, food production must increase by 70% annual cereal
production must rise to 3 billion tons from the current 2.1
billion and yearly meat production must go up to 200 million
tons to reach 470 million.
The FAQ recommends that countries should increase their
investments in agriculture, craft long-term policies aimed at
fighting poverty, and invest in research and development.

Written by Joan Lascota
According to Cambridge Dictionary a situation in which people go to live
in foreign countries, especially in order to find work.
Moving from one place to another is a protected Human Right. The
freedom to move is so precious that it is a protected human right.
There are two basic types of migration studied by demographers:
Sending countries may experience both gains and losses in the short
term but may stand to gain over the longer term.
1. Heterogenization
2. Homogenization
3. Hybridization
When technology got developed, the world had access to systems that
allowed them to share cultural products and commercials across borders.
In the 18th century, cultural uniformity has been predicted to be an
unstoppable movement by philosophers. The supremacy of the nation-
state and national economic barriers, on the other hand, had shielded and
safeguarded cultures from exterior influences. At the end of the 18th
century, cultural uniformization based on the European model was
common, owing to the triumph of Europe's rational capitalism, which
was the symbol of cultural modernity (Weber, 1905).
Globalization and Culture
Written by Dhean Lim
Cultural industries in the 19th century relied on technological advances made
during the first and second industrial revolutions, such as printing in 1860
and electricity and film in 1890. Furthermore, worry about cultural
minorities stretches back to 1853, when Arthur de Gobineau published an
influential essay on human race disparity in France. Marx and Engels noticed
a form of intellectual globalization of ideas in the literature that came before
the materialistic globalization of things and markets. Goethe, a German
scholar, argued for a world civilization based on world literature
(Weltlitertur), to which everyone may participate. Cultural industries arose
in the 20th century as communication technology advanced and flowed
seamlessly across boundaries.
THE
THE INDIGENOUS
INDIGENOUS PEOPLE
PEOPLE
In parts and corners of every nation, Indigenous people are the
ones who hold unique languages, beliefs, and knowledge
systems that possess practices that would help them to have
sustainable management of natural resources. In terms of
cultural diversity, they are the ones who represent this greater
part of the world because they are very distinct from those of
the dominant societies in which they live. According to a
common definition, Indigenous people or indigenous, are
someone or something who is known to be native or naturally
belongs to an area.
Both terms have similar meanings, and they both relate to any living
or non-living entity that corresponds to a particular location. The
main difference between the two terms is that the term “indigenous”
is an adjective that is often used to refer to non-white, originally lives,
produced, exist in a region or environment. Government institutions
and other administrations generally use this term to refer to this type
of people as it is more considered to be polite and politically correct.
While the term native is a noun and adjective that is defined as
“belonging to a particular place by birth” and is not much used for
non-white inhabitants of a country or place.
ON MODERN UNDERSTANDING
The UN system has developed a modern understanding of the term
“indigenous” considering how diverse and distinct indigenous people are.
These are the following:
Although there are few indigenous groups in the country that have remained
among the poorest and least privileged members of society. Generally, they
live in isolated areas in the country, mostly residing in the mountains where
they lack access to most basic social services and mainstream economic
activities, and political activities, and some are away from education.
We know that at the beginning of the pandemic the Philippines was caught
unprepared. During this crisis, indigenous communities are highly affected and
had worsened the people’s economic, political and social lives. They were
mostly affected by this pandemic because they were stranded in communities
and has limited access to food, and health services. However, indigenous
organizations quickly responded to the crisis by simply conducting relief
operations, scattering information, and marketing local products to provide a
source of income to our farmers. But before this happened, it was reported that
the indigenous communities were able to use indigenous health practices such
as traditional community quarantine and therapeutic remedies.
On April 6, 2020, there were around 100 officers in full battle gear
assisting company trucks bringing in fuel supplies for mining
operations in Barangay Didipio, Nueva Vizcaya.

the company name, from mining operations. Rolando Pulido, chairman of
DESAMA, and together with 14 others were charged for violating the
guidelines for Enhanced Community Quarantine and for resisting and
disobeying a person in authority.
GLOBALIZATION
AND PEACE STUDIES
Globalization and Peace Studies
Written by Julienne Maye Gonzalo
There are theorists in many fields that have come to a point to come
to terms with globalization, perhaps with varying success.
Globalization today can be defined in many ways by the people.
Truly, Globalization has made the world a better place to live in, a
world that will lead us more to economic prosperity, political
freedom, and world peace. But we can’t still deny the fact that there
are still some people who become “anti-globalization” due to how it
leaves a negative on them. Yet, according to Alan Tidwell and
Charles Lerche, this is still a one-sided view of globalization and
conflict, and the true relationship of globalization with the people is
more complex and subtle.
OF RISING POWER
"One way of
The term “peace” can be used in
defining “peace”
to remember that stability is a
a variety of ways. It is critical
is to treat this as
life routine to make things in
control. Stability requires full
“stability” " preparedness and commitment.
Having stability
in peace can break vicious cycles of conflict
and other development stresses, it can help nations to make
critical progress and other development goals.
They may benefit from globalism, however many still claim that
globalization still threatens to destroy the cultural system and many
dislike the materialism concept involved. In fact, Pope Francis said
that Globalization is destined to suffocate hope. Moreover some
Muslims view it like a “Trojan Horse” wherein they are hiding
supporters like communism, liberalism, and secularism.
SEXUAL HARASSMENTS
SEXUAL HARASSMENTS
A study of Eleonor R. Dionisio said that as soon as a person was born, they
automatically identified their gender identity (e.g. blue is for boys and
pink is for girls). Sutton (2021) supported this claim and added that gender
stereotyping is also a problem and the media makes it worse. Growing up,
people tend to watch advertisements like a Barbie doll is for girls and a toy
car is for boys. These commercials may be simple but have a lot of impact
to people as they are engraving gender roles on the people. Furthermore,
gender appropriation also controls the overall personality of a person (e.g.
Women should be gentle and Men should be strong)
GENDER ROLES
A. Education
Education also affects people when it comes to gender appropriation as
girls are expected to be good in home economics such as cooking and they
are also expected to take courses that have a “feminine” personality such
as tourism or secretarial courses. On contrary, boys should excel in man
labor such as carpentry and “should” also show skills in mathematics or
science for them “to be successful”
Globalization and Gender
Written by Eunice Morales
B. Religion
Religion greatly influenced many topics and gender roles are no
exception. Christianity engraved to people that women should be virtuous
and pure (e.g Mary). Plus should also be inferior to men as men are the
ones who hold power. Inequality is evident in many different religions
(e.g. In Islam men can marry several women as long as they can provide
for their needs, thus women should just stick to one.)
C. Government
Government policies also contribute to the issues as the opportunities that
they offer are most favorable to men such as training and resources.
Another policy that the government refuses to consider is divorce rights.
Though annulment is an option, many women still wish for divorce for
different reasons (e.g. violence, abuses, etc.)

All of us are well aware of the vitality of technology in the modern world; especially today
that we are in a global medical crisis where we are left with no choice but to be computer
bounded in both our workplaces and classrooms. This current adversity we are in only
proves how the contemporary innovations truly answers most of the problems we face.. and
will face in the years to come.
But, we have to remember that technology does not only provide rainbows and sunshines in
our lives but can also bring forth storms. In this Paper, we’ll be discussing the positive; as
well as the negative impacts of modern technology from our micro lives to the macro-level
secto
The advancement of technology has no doubt been actively visible from our household
alone. It has come to a point that it is now a lifeline- an integral unit of our lives— now let’s
see just how much it has positively impacted us, the education sector, the healthcare
sector, and the economy.
The most obvious positive impact of modern technology of course, is its ability to make
our lives easier and more convenient. Through the help of modern day tech, we are able
to connect and communicate with people around the globe with only a touch from our
phones. In the same vein, we can order food and other necessities through our hand held
devices as well. Consume numerous content may it be educational or purely for
entertainment, and express ourselves in the digital realm.
Technology is important in our lives simply because it helps us deal with every day’s
dynamic things. It also offers various tools to boost development and to exchange
information— Which ultimately makes our lives easier. Here’s some of the positive impact
that it brings us.
2. Technology advances Education
Technology is helping the process of working and learning. The education system is also
one of the fields which are greatly facilitated by technology in making the the academe
more efficient and better.
The evolving technology has benefited and saved lives. Tech possesses an enormous
potential to improve health and healthcare systems as we know them. From AI-powered
clinical drug trials through enabling preventative patients’ monitoring up to wellness
solutions like wearables. Science and Technology have brought so many positive changes
in the field of the healthcare industry and made our lives, even more, simpler than that
before.
- 3-D printing: 3-D printing has been around for some years in many fields. When it comes
to medicine, it creates implants or even joints for surgery. It is also prevalent in prosthetics
as it can create perfect matching limbs allowing extra comfort and mobility.
- Artificial organs: Like 3-D printing, but for actual and operational organs, the patient’s
immune system will not be rejected. Else called bio-printing is an up-and-coming area in
technology in healthcare that could save millions of patients every year.
- Robotic surgery: Adds control, precision, and flexibility to a surgeon’s hands to operate
as non-invasively as possible to a patient. It has allowed making certain operations easier
or even possible.
- Health wearables: They Began as a fitness tracker to track heart rate and pace, and they
highlighted healthcare potential. Health wearables can detect cardiovascular anomalies
earlier and prevent severe conditions.
4. Technology advances the economy
In economics, it is widely accepted that technology is the key driver of economic growth
of countries, regions and cities. Technological progress allows for the more efficient
production of more and better goods and services, which is what prosperity depends
on.
-Emergence of new services and industries: Numerous public services have become
available online and through mobile phones. The transition to cloud computing is one of
the key trends for modernization. Research shows that Facebook apps alone created
over 182,000 jobs in 2011, and that the aggregate value of the Facebook app economy
exceeds $$12 billion.
-Digital Market: The Internet provides Business with new ways of reaching out to
customers and competing for market share. Over the past few years, social media has
established itself as a powerful marketing tool. ICT tools employed within companies
help to streamline business processes and improve efficiency. The unprecedented
explosion of connected devices throughout the world has created new ways for
businesses to serve their customers.
-Mechanized labor/production: Mechanization impacted production by allowing
human work to be replaced by machinery, decreasing the amount of people required to
produce materials. Making production more efficient and less prone to human
mistakes.
Technology can have a large impact on users' mental and physical health. Being overly
connected can cause psychological issues such as distraction, narcissism, expectation of
instant gratification, and even depression. Beside affecting users' mental health, use of
technology can also have negative repercussions on physical health causing vision
problems, hearing loss, and neck strain.
Over exposure to the digital world can lead to certain effects that can be detrimental to
one’s health. Its ramifications can both be seen physically and mentally.
Electronic devices obviously require electricity to run, which means it costs more to enjoy
all of this tech. It also requires massive amounts of energy to produce all of these gadgets,
not to mention the massive electronic waste problem due to gadgets that are no longer
working. Which therefore, creates unwanted pollution, that is highly lethal to our
environment.
One such change is in the jobs that we do from day to day. Technology is absorbing,
reducing or changing some jobs once widespread.
Some examples of jobs replaced by machinery are: Cashiers: Kiosks, Bank tellers & Clerks:
ATMs and more.
4. Infodemic and Misinformation in the digital world
Fake news and misinformation have been with us for quite some time, but with the
tech advancements moving rapidly, people find it hard to keep up with what’s true and
what’s not.
5. A threat to Privacy
We are currently living in the so-called information age which can be described as an era
were economic activities are mainly information based (an age of informationalization).
This is due to the development and use of technology. The main characteristics of this era
can be summarized as a rise in the number of knowledge workers, a world that has
become more open - in the sense of communication (global village/Gutenberg galaxy)
and internationalization (trans-border flow of data).
We greatly value our privacy and the protection of our personal sphere of life. We value
some control over who knows what about them. We certainly do not want their personal
information to be accessible to just anyone at any time. But recent advances in
information technology threaten privacy and have reduced the amount of control over
personal data and open up the possibility of a range of negative consequences as a result
of access to personal data. In the second half of the 20th century data protection regimes
have been put in place as a response to increasing levels of processing of personal data.
The 21st century has become the century of big data and advanced information
technology (e.g. forms of deep learning), the rise of big tech companies and the platform
economy, which comes with the storage and processing of exabytes of data.
Of course, we cannot enumerate every single negative and positive impact of technology
on our lives; Technology is vast and extensive, just like its effect on humanity— so do you
think the good outweighs the bad or vice versa?
As they say, everything in moderation. There are some truly wonderful tools out there,
and you don’t have to delete your accounts or throw your computer out the window in
order to have a positive relationship with technology. All you really need is to set some
healthy boundaries!
Most importantly, check in with yourself regularly to see how you’re feeling. Take a
moment to ask yourself: Am I really benefiting from using this piece of technology? Am I
using this tool mindfully and how it was intended, or has it taken on a life of its own? Am I
getting more out of it than I’m spending—in time, money, or energy?
Technology is neither good, bad or neutral, humans are. Any technology is a tool and
human can use it in good, bad and neutral ways. Technology helps to extend the impact
of the human behavior to a larger scale. Humans possess a unique ability in choosing
between good and bad. Humans can become the worst destructive species or the noblest
of all species. No other species have this degree of freedom to impact the world in good
or bad ways consciously within a short time.
Remember
“Tech is equally capable of making lives easier and harder. Just like everything else
in this world, it pretty much depends on how we use it.”
(Paterska, 2021)
MEDIA AND TECHNOLOGY
ROMULO RAMPULA
i. What is Media?
The plural of medium, media, refers to the communication channels in which we spread
information such as news, music, entertainment, education, promotional messages,
and other data. Physical and online newspapers and magazines, television, radio,
billboards, telephone, the Internet, fax, and billboards are all included.
It describes the many modes of communication that we use in society. Everything from
a phone conversation to the nightly news on television can be defined as media.
Media can be broken down into two main categories: broadcast and print. But as time
passes by, Internet is one of the greatest platforms that is used by the present
generation.
Broadcast media includes radio and television, which debuted at the beginning and
middle of the twentieth century, respectively.
As more individuals seek news, entertainment, and educational information online, the
Internet – notably websites and blogs – is rapidly growing as viable and major conduits of
communication.
Globalization has always been fueled by technology, and increasingly by media. Thomas
Friedman (2005) identified various ways in which technology "flattened" the globe and
contributed to our global economy in a ground-breaking book. Personal computer and
high-speed Internet, according to the first edition of The World Is Flat, published in 2005,
have transformed key economic notions.
In many aspects, the media sector is ideal for globalization, or the growth of global trade
across traditional political borders. Shipping expenses are often insignificant for
information because it is not a tangible commodity. Thus, media's global reach permits it
to be important in a variety of countries.
Some believe, however, that rather than being just another worldwide industry, media is a
partial cause of globalization. Media is essentially a cultural product, and its transfer is
likely to have an impact on the culture of the recipient. Globalization is increasingly being
driven by technology. Technology enables for quick and easy communication.
(kdrama,kpop,anime)
In today's world, the media plays a critical part in the expansion of the globalization
process. Television, the Internet, computers, and other media are thought to have a
significant impact on globalization. Additionally, as a result of the globalization process,
today's society has greater access to a diverse range of media, which plays a critical role in
developing human brains and has a significant impact on our society's daily life. As a
result, these two equally vital processes interact with one another and aid each other in
expanding the field of impact.
Things happen all across the world, and they may appear irrelevant to us, but with the
worldwide reach of the media and the Internet, we may nearly participate in these events,
or at the very least participate in the debates that surround them.
When injustices occur around the world, media empowers people all around the world to
gather together and protest. Cultural globalization and cultural interchange are carried
out through the media. We get our news, entertainment, and education from the media.
There have been significant advances in technology over the last few decades. It is very
evident in how technology allows us as a society to communicate with one another. With the
rise of the Internet, new communication platforms such as Web 2.0 have developed. It alters
not only the method of communication but also the way people connect. A person in Mumbai
can communicate with a person in Arizona in real-time using platforms such as Skype, Google
Hangouts, or even FaceTime, and see their face and surroundings. Their voices are audible to
each other. They can even open other windows at the same time, watch a movie together,
send papers, and so on.
In the same manner that technology has altered and revolutionized communities, societies,
and even countries, technology has infiltrated the arena of education in the twenty-first
century. Schools (public and private), institutes, and higher education institutions have all been
challenged in their use of technology both within and outside the classroom. In some ways,
this social learning experiment has been beneficial. Middle and high school principals, for
example, have been able to send e-alerts and SMS to parents to keep them up to speed on
their child's progress or incidents, and entire communities have been invited into the learning
process via social media platforms.
Global communication systems have thus changed the relationship between localities and
social circumstances. Due to the rising speed and intensity of its functioning, global
communication mediums have enabled the rise of cultural cosmopolitanism or a
cosmopolitan sensibility. The media's portrayal of distant events and how people in other
parts of the world live has resulted in a celebration of difference. It has stimulated a
cosmopolitan orientation in sectors of the public, and the formation of a global civil society,
global public sphere, or international community, even though global media and the
increasingly global flow of people and goods across borders has not destroyed local ties.As a
result of quicker globalization of communications, increased mobility, migration, trade,
investment, and tourism, cultural awareness has grown. As a result, worldwide organizations
such as MTV alter their brand and content programming to suit local tastes and identities, and
global firms engage in marketing techniques to respond to these numerous identities
acquired by expanding global citizens.
Individuals' ability to access the Internet and modern communication technologies remain
significantly unequal, both in developing countries and among different social strata in
affluent civilizations. This was a fundamental concern of the cultural imperialism debates of
the 1970s, but in the current setting of rising globalization of new technologies and disparity in
their distribution, the issue of the "digital divide" has become much more of an urgent issue.
Countries in the South, for example, cannot afford the large upfront expenses of modernizing
their telecommunications networks.
INTERNET AND GLOBALIZATION
JHONARD PRECILLA
According to the World Bank, exports of goods and services as a percentage of GDP grew
from 21 percent in 1995 (when the Internet started gaining popularity), to its peak of 29.3
percent in 2008 before dropping to 24.2 percent in 2009 because of the recession—an 8.4
percentage point jump in just 13 years.[1] To put this in perspective, in the pre-Internet
era, it took 27 years from 1968 to 1995 for global exports to grow by about the same
percentage point.
Effects on Business
The Internet and globalization have radically changed the business world. It has enabled
companies to improve their competitive edge and increased productivity, simply because
of the speed of access to information, and of electronic transactions.
Digitization opens new possibilities for conducting business across borders. As digital
platforms grow in scale and sophistication, they are creating more efficient and transparent
global markets in which far-flung buyers and sellers find each other with a few clicks. They
provide businesses with enormous built-in customer bases and effective ways to connect with
them—and they enable even microenterprises to participate directly in global flows. Digital
flows are also shifting globalization into a faster gear as information ricochets around the
world and collaboration spans time zones. Taken together, these shifts create economic value
by increasing innovation, competition, and productivity.
DIGITAL ECONOMY
- The digital economy refers to economic activity that uses electronic communication and
digital technologies to provide goods and services.
The internet. This enables firms to offer goods for sale and enables consumers to browse
for goods that they need.
E-mail. Electronic communication enables very cheap, instantaneous communication
across the world. It can be used to send information and requests very quickly.
Digital automation. Firms can use the processing power of computers to make decisions
on output, prices and how to reach consumers.
Digital payments – credit cards, Apple Pay, Google pay, bitcoin, bank transfer. A digital
economy is moving us towards a cashless society.
Automation. Increasingly the digital economy relies on AI, mass use of electronic data and
automated technology
Social media. To a lesser extent, social media is an aspect of the digital economy. With
individuals using it share recommendations about business.
The traditional economy is based on physical shops, goods and cash
payments. Over time, the traditional economy has adopted aspects
of the digital economy, e.g. traditional firms taking debit cards, then
selling online. As the digital economy evolved, some firms missed
out on having a physical shop altogether, and selling straight from
an e-commerce site, delivered to consumers’ homes. Some digital
services now have no physical goods. For example, Netflix and
Spotify do not need to use any physical goods but has everything
streamed through the internet.
