(Good for 5 minutes.)  Concepts of Globalization Learning Outcomes Activity Discussion Wrap-up Lorenz is a college student. He drinks Milo with his usual corned beef, egg, and rice for breakfast every school day. While eating, he watches Cartoon Network on cable TV to make his morning light. Afterwards, he rushes to brush his teeth using Colgate. Then, he is good to go. Once inside the university campus, he sends an I-am-at-school message to his mom using his new iPhone X. Likewise, he sends his “Hi” message to his special friend via his Samsung Galaxy S9. More so, Lorenz and his friends love to wear Vans schoolbags. They love to hang out in their favorite fast food store, McDonalds, and happily eat their favorite burger, chicken nuggets, and Coke float. He talks to his dad who works in Dubai via Skype on Monday, Thursday, and Saturday nights.  Concepts of Globalization Learning Outcomes Activity Discussion Wrap-up Economic Imperialism is a situation in which one nation assumes economic power or influence over the others.  Concepts of Globalization Learning Outcomes Activity Discussion Wrap-up “Americanization” of contemporary Filipinos  What is Globalization? Learning Outcomes Activity Discussion Wrap-up Globalization is phenomenon. It is something that is difficult to understand. According to Reich (1998), it is a term whose meaning is obscure. According to Schottle (1995), “globalization stands for quite a large public spread across the world as one of the defining terms of the 20th century social consciousness.”  What is Globalization? Learning Outcomes Activity Discussion Wrap-up  Rosenau (1996) recognizes globalization that is not the same as globalism which points our aspirations for an end state of affairs wherein values are shared by or pertinent to all the world’s five billion people, their environment, their roles as citizens, consumers, and producers with an interest in collective action designed to solve common problems. Nor it is universalism. o Universalism is the values that embrace all humanity.  What is Globalization? Learning Outcomes Activity Discussion Wrap-up  According to McGrew(1990), globalization is described as something that is comprised of multiple sameness and interconnectedness that go beyond the nation states. o It is a process in which individuals and organizations in one part of the world are affected by the activities, affairs, and convictions on another part of the globe.  According to Cerny (1997), globalization is a cluster of economic and political frameworks and procedures deriving from the changing marks of the interests and assets that comprise the foundation of the international political economy--- specifically, the expanding structural differences of those interests and assets.  Concepts of Globalization Learning Outcomes Activity Discussion Wrap-up Globalization as a PROCESS Globalization as a CONDITION Globalization as an IDEOLOGY  Globalization as a Process Learning Outcomes Activity Discussion Wrap-up Freeden (2003) posits that globalization denotes a range of processes nesting under one rather unwieldy epithet. o Global flows occur in different physical and mental dimensions.  Globalization as a Process Learning Outcomes Activity Discussion Wrap-up o According to him, different kinds of globalization occur on multiple and intersecting dimensions of integration that Arjun Appadurai he calls “scapes”.  Ethnoscapes Anthropoligists o He proposed five (5)  Technoscapes dimensions of global  Mediascapes cultural flow namely:  Financescapes  Ideoscapes  Globalization as a Process Learning Outcomes Activity Discussion Wrap-up For Steger (2005 & 2014) The term globalization should be limited to a set of intricate social processes that modify prevailing social statuses based on modern regime of self-dependent nation-states.  Concepts of Globalization Learning Outcomes Activity Discussion Wrap-up  Definition of Globalization for a number of scholars: o A multidimensional group of social procedures that build, accelerate, elaborate, and intensify worldwide interactions while, at the same time, nurturing in people an increasing consciousness of deepening linkages between the local and far-off.  Globalization as a Condition Learning Outcomes Activity Discussion Wrap-up Steger (2005) globalization as a condition denotes Steger "future(2005) social condition characterized by thick economic, political, and cultural interconnections and global flows that make currently existing political borders and economic barriers irrelevant."  Globalization as a Condition Learning Outcomes Activity Discussion Wrap-up  Globalization as an Ideology Learning Outcomes Activity Discussion Wrap-up IDEOLOGY  is dogmatic.  for others, it connotes political sophistication.  May also refer to the dominant modes of thought (Gerring, 1997).  Steger (2014b) defines ideology as a system of widely shared ideas, patterned beliefs, guiding norms and values, and ideals accepted as truth by some groups.  is defined by core claims. Since globalization has core claims; hence, it is an ideology.  Globalization as an Ideology Learning Outcomes Activity Discussion Wrap-up  Steger (2014b) globalization as an ideology Globalization is about the liberalization and global integration of markets; Five Globalization is inevitable and irreversible; Core Nobody is in charge of globalization; Claims Globalization benefits everyone; and Globalization furthers the spread of democracy in the world.  Globalization For Political Scientist Learning Outcomes Activity Discussion Wrap-up o Serves as a challenge to nation-states. o The strengthening of regional blocks like EU, Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), and the UN is gaining a stable ground. o The emergence of global political norms is evident. For instance, the norm that each country is entitled to the exploitation of natural resources for its own growth (Giensen & Pijl, 2006).  Globalization For Political Scientist Learning Outcomes Activity Discussion Wrap-up o The emergence of global corporations. Businessmen and investors can already demand what they want from the nation-state that would advance their interests. Some of them prefer to go to countries where they can earn more with the least cost. some corporations have bigger revenues than the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of some countries (Trivett, 2011). For example.  In 2010, Microsoft's revenue of $62.48 million is bigger than Croatia's $60.59 million GDP.  In 2018, according to Fortune. Microsoft ranked 30th biggest corporation with $89.95 million revenue.  Globalization for an Economist Learning Outcomes Activity Discussion Wrap-up means increase of free of trade, speed of trade, global economic organization, and regional trade blocks. The expansion of free trade allows governments not to restrict the importation of products nor impede the export of local products. Importing and exporting are done in just a millisecond through technology and the internet.  Globalization for an Economist Learning Outcomes Activity Discussion Wrap-up  Intense establishment of economic organization. International World Trade Monetary Fund World Bank (WB) Organization (IMF), (WTO) International Labor Organization European Free Mercusor Trade Area (EFTA) (IOL) a customs union among Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay, Paraguay, and Venezuela. ASEAN Free Trade Trans-Pacific Area (AFTA), Partnership.  Globalization For Culture And Communications Experts Learning Outcomes Activity Discussion Wrap-up Globalization refers to the concept of a global village.  Through globalization, the world has become a borderless world.  Communication technology makes the world shrink. McLuhan (1964) believes that media has connected the world in ways that created a global village.  Globalization For Culture And Communications Experts Learning Outcomes Activity Discussion Wrap-up Globalization is referred to as cultural imperialism. The conviction that there is a “better” culture. Some cultures see other cultures as superior to theirs, forming inferior or nondominant cultures. In cultural globalization, therefore, the spread of popular culture (e.g., music, art, literature, fashion, lifestyle, etc.) flows from dominant to nondominant cultures (i.e., from developed to developing nations).  Working Definition Of Globalization Learning Outcomes Activity Discussion Wrap-up "Globalization refers to the expansion and intensification of social relations and consciousness across world-time and world- space (Steger, 2013)." Manfred Steger  Globalization Learning Outcomes Activity Discussion Wrap-up 1. Globalization has various forms of connectivity 2. Globalization allows for the expansion Four and stretching of social relations Attributes Of Globalization 3. Globalization intensifies and accelerates social exchanges and activities 4. Globalization occurs worldwide  Four Attributes Of Globalization Learning Outcomes Activity Discussion Wrap-up 1. Globalization has various forms of connectivity.  These forms, enabled by various factors, ECONOMIC pressures, or media, affect different degrees of POLITICAL interconnection.  To illustrate, a Filipino minimum wage earner CULTURAL may suffer from a slight price hike of basic commodities while his neighbor who earns above the minimum might not be affected by the said increase. This adjustment in prices of commodities can be caused by national and international economic and political events.  Four Attributes Of Globalization Learning Outcomes Activity Discussion Wrap-up 2. Globalization allows for the expansion and stretching of social relations.  These can be observed in the existence of non-governmental organizations (NGOs) that operate in the local, regional, and international setting.  For instance, the Philippine National Red Cross is an affiliate of the International Committee of the Red Cross, a humanitarian institution based in Switzerland.  Social relations can also be seen in the establishment of sister-city relationships such as the cooperation between Cebu City and Haarlemmermeer City of the Netherlands.  In addition, social relations manifest in the establishment of government associations and presence of multinational companies in the Philippines.  Four Attributes Of Globalization Learning Outcomes Activity Discussion 3. Globalization intensifies and accelerates social exchanges and activities. snail Live social mail to telecast media email In the early 1990s, some Filipinos Mail can be sent could watch international television shows only a week after the episode instantly unlike the mail Builds global courier-delivered letters community aired. Cable TV and internet live streaming allow Filipinos to watch shows as soon as they are released. of the 1980s.  Four Attributes Of Globalization Learning Outcomes Activity Discussion Wrap-up 4. Globalization occurs worldwide  Every person is a global citizen because he or she thinks about the issues of the world.  For example, Europeans and Americans used #prayformarawi in social media to show their concern for the victims of the Marawi City siege in May 2017.  Another instance is when teenagers associate themselves with global trends like K-Pop. They imitate the way their K-Pop idols dress up, dance, and even talk.  Global citizens also assume a sense of responsibility in global matters.  One good example is the participation of global citizens in Earth Hour every 3rd Sunday of March and the expression of concern from the international community for the alleged human rights violations of the current administration in the Philippines.  Concepts of Globalization Learning Outcomes Activity Discussion Wrap-up The definition and conceptualization of globalization may come from the different lenses but an interdisciplinary definition is necessary. Some scholars consider it as a process, a condition, or an ideology. Experts from different fields of social sciences also define globalization based on their specialization of expertise. But a working definition has encompassed all definitions of and notions about globalization. Steger’s definition is the most unbiased working definition.  Concepts of Globalization Learning Outcomes Activity Discussion Wrap-up
