discussion : Is globalization a good thing or bad?

My discussion answer A :Globalization Is Good

Globalization refers to the current trend where countries are companies are joining together economically through education and politics. As countries join together economically, they usually view each other through their national identities and as part of the whole world. In the contemporary days, people from varying parts of the world have become more interconnected than in the past. It has now become easier for money and information to flow and thus, countries can easily exchange the products that they produce with the ones that they do not produce (Lane, 2006). All of this can be associated with globalization as it has become a major tidal wave. In my opinion, globalization is a good thing due to the capability of joining people and making the world to look like a small village where people can interact and exchange ideas, goods and information.

One of the reasons why I think globalization is a good thing is because it creates employment opportunities. This is considered as the main advantage of globalization because, countries are able to set up businesses in new and foreign countries thereby creating employment opportunities for the residents of that country. To add on to this, it makes it easy for the people to migrate thereby resulting to the creation of opportunities for better jobs. The other advantage of globalization is that it makes it possible for people to access education. In this, there are so many educational institutions that are spread across the globe and globalization makes it possible for the people to move from their home countries to other foreign countries so that they can get better educational opportunities. This has thus promoted to the integration of the culture as well as the people from the different educational backgrounds. The countries which are labor intensive and the developing ones have greatly benefited from this (Asmussen, 2011).

The other advantage of globalization which makes me feel that it is a good thing is that it facilitates international trade. As a result of the international trade, trade in all the countries has become very competitive and this has prompted the producers to produce goods that are of a high quality so that they can be in a position to compete favorably in the market. The producers globally have to ensure that they enhance their products so that they can be in a position to capture the consumer’s attention. This is because in the contemporary society the consumers are never ready to make compromises when it comes to quality unlike price. The other advantage that makes me feel that globalization is a good thing is the fact that it has led to the reduction of the prices for various goods and commodities in the market. As a result of the globalization, prices of products have become cheap due to the fierce competition. There is a wide range of products in the market that the consumers can choose from and this thus makes it a necessity for the producers to ensure that they have priced their products competitively.

To sum it up, globalization has become a major tidal wave in the world which cannot be stopped. Its advantages outweighs its disadvantages and it should be promoted globally so that the countries can be in a position to continue interacting economically so that they can achieve their desired levels of growth and development as a reduction of the trade barriers and ability to allow for the free flow of goods and information.

My professor's comments : By how much has employment risen thanks to globalization? Many of the benefits you mention can be documented by economic data. You could strengthen your argument by providing some of those data, which are easy to find.

My discussion answer B :Globalization Is Good

I believe globalization is a good thing in the world. This is because I see it as a change to the face of the world in various activities. With the definition of globalization, an individual can be able to know that globalization is a good thing. The definition states that it is a process where there is an interaction and integration among the people, companies and governments of different nations. This makes me to state that globalization is a good thing (Geisler, Pedersen, Devinney, & Tihanyi, 2011). The major reason for this is that it brings people from different regions to come together for a common goal that each one of them will be able to benefit at the end of the interaction.

It is making the world to become a rich place. The major reason as to why it is making the world to be richer is that it enhances a platform for an easy interaction among different people. There are different people who are coming from different areas who come together to be able to interact. When these people are interacting, they exchange ideas especially positive ideas concerning businesses. An individual will be able to easily get new ideas on a particular thing that he/she had knowledge about. The individual will later on implement the particular idea that he/she had got to develop their businesses (Holden, 2013). This has made various people to become rich in terms of knowledge and also based on their wealth.

Globalization is also making the world to become a richer place as it assists various organizations to develop and to be able to serve the various customers thus leading to them to make a profit. It has been able to bring different people from different organizations who come to share their various ideas to others and in return they also get new ideas from other individuals (Geisler, Pedersen, Devinney, & Tihanyi, 2011). When these people have gotten these new ideas, they will be able to implement these new ideas to their respective companies so that they may be able to improve their companies in terms of production and also in sales. This will make the organizations to grow making the world to become a richer place.

Globalization promotes an international understanding and it does not threaten the local culture. It enhances an international understanding because it brings different people from different regions to come together for a particular goal. They will be able to share the various knowledge and ideas among themselves (Holden, 2013). This promotes an international understanding whereby people from different regions come together for a particular goal thus tolerance among themselves as each and every individual would want to get a new thing out of the interaction.

Globalization does not threaten local culture of the people. This is because these individuals who are coming together for a particular goal that they would want to achieve come from different culture; they will be able to use their culture to display the various ideas that they have concerning a particular thing (Geisler, Pedersen, Devinney, & Tihanyi, 2011). This therefore makes globalization not to threaten the culture of any individual.

My professor's comments : What would be a good example of globalization "bringing people together,"? How do we measure the effects of globalization on local cultures?
