The Phenomenon Of Globalization

The phenomenon of globalization

Introduction.

There is much talk about globalization, but we don’t

We have stopped thinking of their origin, causes, consequences and impact on the

society; In this essay these approaches will be addressed according to the

componentes de las lecturas e información presentada en la unidad 1.

 It is

necesario analizar, sintetizar y realizar una comprensión del contexto

económico que tiene la globalización entré los diversos países, teniendo en

cuenta que con la globalización se dio apertura de mercados, implementación de

tecnologías, crisis del capitalismo[1]

y el surgimiento de los movimientos sociales.

La globalización juega un papel fundamental en

la sociedad pues ha generado cambios estructurales en lo social, lo político y

lo económico; cambios que dieron surgimiento de los movimientos sociales que

han sido la bandera de la movilización social colectiva a nivel mundial, y que

han permitido que se consigan logros importantes en cuanto a lo ambiental, a la

defensa de los derechos humanos, la lucha de las mujeres por lograr la igualdad

de género, entre otros. Los movimientos sociales tienen como fin principal

difundir el descontento de cierta parte de la sociedad al sentirse vulnerados

con lo cual esperan conseguir que las distintas entidades generen acciones de

cambio frente a un tema específico.

En este punto, llegamos a realizar una pregunta

fundamental en el presente ensayo que desarrollará un análisis en cuanto a

¿Cuáles son las ventajas y desventajas logradas por los movimientos sociales

dadas a partir del proceso de globalización?

La globalización y la mundialización.

Iniciaremos por

definir globalización y mundialización para entender su origen causas,

consecuencias e impacto en la sociedad. (Stiglitz, 2002, pág. 34) La

globalización es “la integración más estrecha de los países y los pueblos del

mundo, producida por la enorme reducción de los coste de transporte y

comunicación, y el desmantelamiento de las barreras artificiales a los flujos

de bienes, servicios, capitales, conocimientos y (en menor grado) personas a

través de las fronteras. (Mundial, 2013, pág. 194), define

mundialización como “un fenómeno histórico en curso que consiste en un

incremento acelerado de las relaciones de interdependencia entre actividades,

actors, structures and processes from different parts of the planet ”. East

phenomenon produces actions and reactions that concern areas such as the economy,

Politics, technology, culture, media, law

and the environment, among others.

Once defined

globalization and globalization, I proceed to give my point of view in terms of

difference that exists between globalization and globalization aimed at

cultural; taking into account that both globalization and globalization

They are aimed at integration and/or interdependence relationships, from me

point of view I can say that there are no differences in relation to the cultural

It is understood that cultural diversity is given among countries, understood as

the set of customs, languages ​​and beliefs that allow having a new

world vision through cultural exchanges that are largely

gave for the appearance of technologies that facilitated the interaction of

Regions allowing many countries to adopt habits, beliefs

religious, customs and gastronomic of other countries.

Origin of globalization.

Paraphrasing the information

contained in Professor Ernesto Falla’s video, globalization arose as

consequence of the exhaustion of the cold war and the bipolar world that gives way to

the dissolution of the union of the Soviet Republic and the 

emergence of perestroika [2] and

Glassnost [3].  The cold war arose after the second

World War in 1945 where the bipolar world between the United States and the

Soviet Union, who disputed hegemony, world control of

Territories, economies and military issues, bipolarity took the dispute

Between the United States and the Soviet Union, through military blocks,

of the countries that were grouped around these two military poles by the

dispute of the territories and control of the world. (Falla, 2019).

 Those disputes

They extended to Latin American countries developing the doctrine of

National Security promoted by the United States, in which he gave 

Understand that in that world dispute between the United States block and union

Soviet there was a latent threat from the Soviet Union block

where it was assured that international communism was going to

Take the countries and that communism had to be taken to take the world

and for this reason the doctrine of national security intended that the

Latin America armies had to have control of the State to

that communism will reach states and control them, with this doctrine of

National Security adopted by many Latin American countries, the

Ascent of revolutionary and popular movements. (Falla, 2019).
