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).
