Politics / What is Globalization?
« on: September 08, 2004, 04:09:00 AM »
Globalisation is the denationalisation of politics, economics and legal systems of emerging countries... the creation of the so called global village.
but in reality it is the Westernisation of emerging markets, the opening of economies and changing of policies and laws to suit the needs of western multinational corporations at the expense of local business (big example: Privatisation- it is an idea from the west that says private business runs more efficiently than public(government) owned enterprises, so third world govts must privatise to run more efficiently. But it is evident through the failures of the west that private comanies aren´t more efficient eg.:- the current spate of underground railway problems in london and the Huge power cut on the east coast of North america recently) .
it is ultimately the process through which the third world is robbed of identity and the right to actively pursue its own destiny
