Globalization• If you look at the tag on your shirt,

chances are you would see that it was made in a country other than the one in which you sit right now.

What's more, before it reached your wardrobe, this shirt could have very well been made with Chinese cotton sewed by Thai

hands, shipped across the Pacific on a French freighter crewed by

Spaniards to a Los Angeles harbor.

Globalization and Its Characteristics

that the neo-liberalism version of globalization, particularly as implemented (and ideologically defended) by bilateral, multilateral, and international organizations, is reflected in an educational agenda that privileges, if not directly imposes , particularly policies for evaluation, financing assessment, standards, teacher training, curriculum, instruction and testing.

A correspondingly, new pressures on the role of workers and consumers on society.

Political Termsa certain-loss of nation-state sovereignty or at least the erosion of national autonomy, and, correspondingly, a weakening of the notion of the “citizen” as a unified and unifying concepts, a concept that can be characterized by precise roles, rights, obligations and status.

Cultural Terms a tension between the ways in which globalization brings forth more standardization and cultural homogeneity, while also bringing more fragmentation through the rise of locally oriented movements.

Is Globalization a Good Thing?

• There is a heated debate about the true effects of globalization and if it really is such a good thing. Good or bad, though, there isn't much argument as to whether or not it is happening. Let's look at the positives and negatives of globalization, and you can decide for yourself whether or not it is the best thing for our world.
