“Globalization” refers to the growing economic and cultural interconnectedness between different regions of the world. Because modern transportation and electronic communication have made commercial relationships between distant people easier than ever before, the world is rapidly becoming a single interactive zone. This phenomenon has brought several unanticipated benefits.
The most commonly cited virtue of globalization is that it allows developing nations to use their low costs of living to their advantage. Because workers in developing nations can survive on less money, the production of goods in the developing world is significantly cheaper. This encourages business with those economies, fostering economic wellbeing. Southeast Asia, for example, has seen annual economic growth, allowing its citizens to live more comfortably today than their parents did only a generation ago.
A secondary but no less noteworthy advantage is that world trade creates competition that would otherwise be missing. As the rise of capitalism has demonstrated, competition forces the producers of goods to keep their goods’ quality as high as or higher than that of their competitors and, simultaneously, their costs as affordable as possible. This means, in general, better goods for lower prices among those countries that participate in the global system. Those that do not, meanwhile, see prices climb.
Finally, globalization has cultivated a mutual reliance between countries that puts pressure on governments to make safer and healthier choices. Countries that rely on one another’s business are far less likely to go to war, for instance, and also must listen to the environmental concerns of their business partners. Countries that pollute excessively will see less business, and therefore must learn to curb environmental damage.
The reading and the lecture are both about the cons and pros of globalization. The article's author feels that globalization has brought myriad benefits to the world. The lecturer disputes the claims made in the article. His position is that this phenomenon is not necessarily good, and it has downsides.
According to the reading, living in developing countries is cheap and requires less money to survive there. The article mentions that this aspect encourages the use of the workforce in these countries. The lecturer challenges this argument. He claims that moving the production factories to the developing countries means that there are no jobs left to the people in our countries. Additionally, he points out that the USA used to produce televisions, but now all television factories have moved to Mexico due to the cheaper workforce there.
Secondly, the author posits that globalization has increased the competition between companies globally. The article says that this competition would enhance the quality of the products and make them more affordable. The lecturer, however, asserts that depending on the global market is a bad idea. He says that the countries that rely on the worldwide market would face problems during the financial crises.
Finally, the author posits that globalization forces governments to improve their countries' lives. The author contends that governments would try to solve pollution problems in their countries. In contrast, the lecturer's stance is that globalization is one of the world's pollution reasons. He notes that cheap production due to globalization usually harms the environment.
