By making it easier and quicker to complete international trade and financial transactions, technological advances have led to globalization - the integration of economies and societies around the world. Even critics of globalization acknowledge its positive effects. One of the benefits of a global market is that it offers greater opportunity for people to tap into more and larger markets around the world. This increased market access increases the flow of capital across borders, results in cheaper imports, and also promotes competition among worldwide providers of goods and services, thus leading to greater efficiencies worldwide, since specialization allows people and economies to focus on what they do best. Another advantage of globalization is the rapid spread of knowledge and technology. Direct foreign investment results not only in capital expansion, but also in technical innovation. Knowledge about production methods, management techniques, export markets and economic policies is made available to workers in expanding markets, often in developing countries, who can in turn use this knowledge to expand and improve local businesses. Finally, in a global market, there is a tendency for workers to move from developing countries to developed countries to find better employment opportunities. This means that there is also the potential for newly learned skills to be transferred back to the developing countries from which the workers came, and for wages in these countries to rise. As wages rise and workers become more educated, developing countries experience economic growth, a reduction in poverty, and an increase in consumption, thereby leading to greater economic opportunities for all.
Summarize the points made in the lecture you just heard, explaining how they contrast with the points made in the reading.
Both the lecturer and the writer analyze the effects of globalization but their opinions are fundamentally at odds. While the former is more focused on benefits, the ladder discusses only about its drawbacks.
First, the speaker is strongly convinced that this phenomenon has lead to an increase in the economic gap not only between rich and poor country, but also between rich and poor people living in the same country. She believes that one of the main causes of this situation is the deallocation of work forces in poorest country, where workers can be paid less money and can overwork. By contrast, the writer believes that globalization is worthy not only for wealthy country but also for developing ones since the knowledge and the technologies are able to spread worldwide in less time than before.
In addition, the lecturer argue that the globalized world is losing even more its national cultures. As a matter of fact, people from two opposite part of the globe is listening to the same music, wearing the same clothes and eating the same food.
In conclusion, the two opinions presented are completely different. On one side the writer is strongly convinced that no drawbacks are due to globalization, but on the other side the lecturer judges that situation as dramatical for 21th century society.
