Blogger1.What is globalization?
The term globalization is a concept and a
phenomenal process of human social development.There are many definitions of
globalization. Globalization in the usual sense refers to the growing global
connection, the development of human life on the basis of global scale and the
rise of global consciousness.Countries are interdependent in politics, economy
and trade.Globalization can also be interpreted as a compression of the world
and as a whole.In the long history of human development, the wave of globalization
is a wave of light.Globalization, a popular concept that often occupies the
headlines of the world, refers to a process of historical transformation in
which the relationship between countries, regions and regions intensifies
continuously.
The underlying causes of the
anti-globalization trend are the continuing slump in the world economy in
recent years, rising inequality, unfair resource allocation, and growing sense
of social abandonment and insecurity. [10]
There is also an academic debate as to
whether globalization is a real phenomenon or just a claim.Although the term
has been widely used, some scholars argue that this phenomenon has existed in
other historical periods.In addition, it was noted that phenomena that
convinced us that we were in the process of globalization, such as the growth
of international trade and the increasingly important role played by
transnational corporations, were not formulated at the beginning of their
establishment.Therefore, many scholars prefer to use
"internationalization" rather than "globalization".Simply
put, the difference between the two is that the role of the State is more
important in internationalization.In other words, globalization is deeper than
internationalization.Thus, these scholars argue that national boundaries are
far from vanishing, so full globalization has not yet begun, and may not begin
— internationalization has historically never been globalized.Smir Amin, a
well-known proponent of attachment theory, argues that "globalization is a
reactionary utopia" and makes a penetrating analysis of its negative
implications for Latin American and Asian countries.
What does globalization bring?
Whether or not we are in an unprecedented
process of globalization, past experience is enlightening.The historical
experience of globalization can be divided into four broad categories: moral
issues; issues of benefits; issues of convergence and exclusion; and issues of
internationalism and nationalism.The following four features of globalization
correspond to these four problems.
Globalization without the rule of law and
morality.Marketization within any country is maturing with the gradual maturity
of the legal environment.However, international marketization is not carried
out under the rule of law environment, so it is impossible to
"maturity".The rule of law in the international market is simply
impossible without world government.When legislation, justice, and law
enforcement are all part of one family, only idealists expect justice, and only
those countries most capable of profiting from injustice talk about how
equitable the international order is.Without global rule-of-law governments,
so-called "global governance" cannot be governance that embodies
international justice.
The globalization of national gains and
losses cannot be foreseen.It is very difficult to talk abstractly about the
conditions under which globalization benefits or suffers.Strong, weak, large
and small countries may benefit, and they may suffer.Traditional China has been
defeated by globalization, but it has also emerged from globalization at a high
speed.The British Empire emerged from and declined from globalization.The
United States, which has always been the biggest beneficiary of globalization,
tends to ignore globalization because it is beginning to feel the cost.
3. Stimulate globalization in pursuit of
differences.The convergence caused by globalization is shallow, but the
divergence caused by globalization is profound.Pursuing differences is the most
profound feature of the era of globalization.Globalization's capital has no
humanity. It brings about intense social changes, stimulates the rise of
various ideologies, and inevitably accompanies fierce conflicts among social
groups, ideologies and even nation-states.Previous globalization brought
prosperity and progress, revolution, civil war and "world war".
Promote nationalism and globalization of
national boundaries.There is no doubt that internationalism in all its forms
and manifestations since modern times has arisen from globalization.However,
globalization has brought stronger nationalism, passports and customs, barriers
to human interaction, "holy" national boundaries, more advanced
weapons and stronger national defence.In previous globalizations, it was not
internationalism but nationalism, especially nationalism, that prevailed.Today,
we see the rise of the "United States of Europe" doctrine, the use of
European currency, the consolidation of European borders, the establishment of
European customs, the unification of European defence.What stimulated this new
"western European nationalism"?The United States, Japan, Western
Europe. . . Which one is still talking about internationalism?Who can say that
globalization has wiped out national boundaries when the battlefield for border
security has been extended to outer space?Once upon a time, the Olympics and
the World Cup, which were established for universal joy, became the arena of
nationality, competition among nations, and even the capital of competition
within nation-states.
