Let`s Discuss This: Globalization
1. Is globalization good or bad? Is it beneficial or detrimental?
Answer: One definition of globalization is the birth of a fully modern world order,I would say
that globalization is GOOD because, People are more connected and interactive with
Information and money are flowing continuously, and people are more interactive and linked.
Products created in one region of the world can quickly reach another. But for some reason, The
global economy suffers from globalization. It has been preventing developing and
underdeveloped nations from progressing for many years. They might cause environmental
damage, endanger public safety, or subject local workers to subpar working conditions and
inadequate pay. Many people believe that globalization poses a threat to the world's cultural
diversity.

SELF- ASSESSMENT NO. 1
QUESTION 1: How have you experienced globalization?
Answer: Yes, One of the effects of globalization is that it promotes and increases interactions between
different regions and populations around the globe. The word globalization means the speedup of
movements and exchanges (of human beings, goods, and services, capital, technologies, etc.) all over the
planet. For example, I am using laptop doing my school works "Windows " operating system - which product
of a famous software company "Microsoft". I also using my phone, VIVO that was designed in Chinese and
assembled in Philippines. All these things is because of process of globalization. Globalization has been
associated with a range of cultural consequences.
QUESTION 2: Why is it critical to emphasize that globalization is uneven?
Answer: When we refer to uneven globalization, we mean that the benefits and drawbacks of economic
expansion are not equally spread. As a result, there are power and income inequities that hinder the
functioning of democratic institutions. It is crucial to stress that globalization is uneven and that this
unevenness is the root cause of the majority of the issues it has created.

II. What is the difference between globalization and globalism? Elaborate
ACTIVITY NO. 1
Globalization, in my perspective, is a multifaceted economic and social trend that
started in the late 1970s. Numerous interconnected economic, social,
communicational, political, and environmental issues are involved. Local private and
public markets are connected in one global marketplace, which is what is known as
globalization. Additionally, we can typically describe the wide term "globalism" as an
ideological commitment in favor of globalization. It's a perspective that sees
globalization as fully advantageous. The foundation of globalism is the idea that
products, information, and people should be free to move across boundaries.

that are of foreign brands. List the countries of origin of your foreign-brand items. Which countries make
the most household and personal needs you and your families have? Make a similar list for Philippine-
made stuff, discuss why certain products are made in the Philippines while others are produced abroad.
