Abstract
This paper explains that, in China, increased foreign direct investment, the status as the world's factory, reduced trade barriers and a growing consumer class have contributed to economic growth and improvements in the quality of life; however, this rapid economic development has dramatically altered resource usage patterns at both the consumption and production levels. The author points out that the material impact of China's globalization represents a structuralist analysis, which runs counter to the theories of political individualism and rational choice, which content that, left to its own devices, the market will sort out the environmental damage. The paper argues that the long-term effects of uncontrolled globalization on China and the world will be increased potential political instability as the fight for limited and increasingly polluted resources intensifies.
From the Paper
"As the Chinese economy grows so too the demand for resources to fuel increases in the form of energy sources and raw materials for industrial process and agricultural production. Since China is currently considered the world's factory, producing more than it consumes, the pattern of resource use is especially harmful to China. The nation imports raw materials, exports finished goods, but is left with the pollutants from that production. These pollutants and environmental damage takes on many forms including sulfur oxide emissions, deforestation, water pollution, over fishing as well as pollution from pesticides, fertilizers, and industrial chemicals."

Outline:
Introduction
Trade - Liberalization
Foreign Investment
Economic Management
From the Paper
"The fact that trade liberalization is a catalyst for economic growth and development is well known. Trade liberalization is even more important to the growth of developing economies where small businesses frequently account for 80% or more of employment and virtually all job growth (Asel, 2003). China operates at the margins of the economy exploiting opportunities overlooked by incumbents, and has innovated to develop promising, but untested markets and flexibly managing scarce resources in an uncertain, often unforgiving environment (Asel, 2003)."

Abstract
This paper discusses globalization and global labour patterns. The paper argues that in a globalized world corporations are determining the labour conditions in both developed and developing countries. It suggests that the corporations are essentially making cheap, unskilled and flexible labourers.
From the Paper
"Globalization and Global Labour Patterns Globalization is one of the most controversial issues in politics and economics. In "Note on Terminalogy" David McNally defines globalization as, "The mainstream term for the new world Economy of the past twenty years" (McNally 9). How exactly has the world economy changed? While discussing the political and economic changes that have occurred over the last three decades Teeple explains, A system of highly integrated world trade was an irreversible fact by the end of the 1970s, confirmed and hastened by the new means of transportation and communications, whose increased productivity were transforming the worldwide distribution of products and hence the global conditions for valorization (Teeple 71)."

Abstract
The paper states that it is not complicated to find some globalized places such as airline terminals, international hotels or CNN business news revealing the effects of globalization and its repercussions on our understanding of culture in the modern world. The paper relates that through the growing of global interconnections and the processes of ideas and global goods crossing national borders, cultures fuse across the globe. The paper also discusses the presence of English as an international language, and a homogenization of culture. The paper confirms that, culture is a set of values and practices characterized by its particularity, which nevertheless needs universal criteria as a reference to justify this particularity. It is also crucial to define culture as an "encompassing" concept and to keep in mind that it is difficult to know what is cultural.
From the Paper
"In addition, a shared global culture is also relevant as a global dissemination of an American or Western culture. Indeed the processes of globalization are providing fuel for a cultural imperialism, that is to say a global culture liable to be a hegemonic culture. Thus the assertion of a shared global culture seems to be linked to what Friedman describes as "the increasing hegemony of particular central cultures, the diffusion of American values, consumers goods and lifestyles" (Friedman, 1994: 195). The diffusion of dominant standard icons and references such as MacDonald's, Coca-Cola leads to think about an obvious Americanization. In a word, cultures are both confronted by a global dominance of the western culture and by the practices of global capitalism. The result is probably a decrease of cultural differences: a process which undeniably worked to the advantage of the USA and others Western nations. A striking example of this tendency of cultural imperialism is the United Nations Educations Scientific and Cultural Organization's call for a "new world information and communication order" and its politics on global culture."

Globalization and Global Survival, 2005.
This paper discusses the effects and dangers of globalization.

Abstract
This article examines the cultural, commercial, political and environmental effects of globalization. The writer then looks at the related challenges and dangers. The writer discusses how the existence of international monopolies together with the third world sweat shops and additional factors endanger global survival. The writer further discusses that globalization's exportation of environmentally and perhaps socially unsustainable Western materialism to populous developing nations such as India and China is also worrying for the future of the planet.
From the Paper
"Evidence of increasing hegemony by an ever shrinking number of multinational conglomerates is fuelling increasing concern regarding global cultural, commercial, political and environmental effects from such inequitable distribution of power. The creation of international industrial monopolies and massive fortunes of unprecedented size, accompanied as it is by equally massive down-sizing, unemployment, environmental degradation and the exponential increase of Third World sweat shops and child labor, seems to be leading to disaster on a global scale."

The Global South and the Global North, 2007.
An analysis of the impact of globalization on the inequality between the global north and the global south.

Abstract
This paper looks at globalization and discusses how it has exacerbated the pre-existing inequalities between the poor global south and the wealthy global north. It illustrates how globalization forces some people (predominantly in the southern regions of the planet) to work while permitting other people (predominantly individuals residing in the global north) to become wealthy.
From the Paper
"To start with, it is commonly known that powerful multinational corporations in the global north habitually take their manufacturing operations from Europe and/or America and deposit those aforementioned manufacturing operations in global south countries where they can avoid the onerous regulatory regimes, high corporate taxes, and high wage costs they associate with the north. At the same time, the movement of jobs and plants to the south has the unhappy effect of not only costing workers jobs in the north but also of reducing the south to the subordinate position of being "hewers of wood and drawers of water" for multinationals that are looking for cheap human resources that can be utilized in a working environment that is more permissive than the highly-regulated work environments of America and/or Europe. A good example of this phenomenon can be found in the IT sector where skilled U.S. workers are losing jobs to individuals overseas (Sosbe, 4) - presumably because the "cost of doing business" vis-a-vis wage expenses is lower in global south nations which do not have a strong tradition of labor activism or of government involvement in employee-employer relations."

Abstract
This paper examines how China officially joined the World Trade Organization last year after a long series of negotiations. It looks at the entry of China into this world body and how it aroused mixed emotions among business analysts in the United States. Proponents feel that it will help Chinese economy and make its industries more competitive, while opponents are of the view that United States employment rate will be badly hurt by China?s accession to WTO. The author writes that China will certainly stand to benefit from increased trend towards global sourcing and the paper studies China?s entry with reference to this particular issue.
From the Paper
"China today enjoys a prominent position in the world because it is one of the fastest growing markets and this makes it the center of attention for the global businesses. The country has been introducing trade reforms since a long time now and in its attempt to become a major part of the world community, it offered to join World Trade Organization, which already has 142 members. But accession has not been a smooth journey for China because it was after almost 15 years that it was finally granted entry into this trade body.

Abstract
In this essay, the writer considers two separate articles regarding globalization. The two articles discussed are "The Truth about Globalization" by Timothy Taylor, and "Ecocide and Globalization" by Franz J. Broswimmer. The writer looks at each of the author's individual arguments and views regarding the subject of globalization.
From the Paper
"The two articles that we are here concerned with analyzing are "The Truth about Globalization" by Timothy Taylor, and "Ecocide and Globalization" by Franz J. Broswimmer. Taylor puts forward an intelligent and well-documented argument in favor of globalization, seeing it as a way for all people and nations to grow richer through augmentation of trade opportunities and the exchange of ideas and skills, specifically the growth of technical capacity which has been shown to be a key factor in industrializing and hence growing wealthy."

Conclusion
From the Paper
"As countries have increasingly engaged in the importing and exporting of goods and services, international trade has become more prominent. International trade has been the catalysis for globalization. Globalization is the convergence of distinct national economic systems to one huge global market (Hill, 2005). Several theories exist that explain the benefits of international trade and subsequently globalization. Adam's Smith's theory of absolute advantage, the theory of comparative advantage and the Heckscher-Ohlin theory all support the concept of globalization."

From the Paper
"China-the most populous country in the world-has exhibited remarkably high levels of sustained economic growth in the two decades since it reformed its economy following the death of Mao Zedong in 1976. According to some analysts, the country is poised to become the number one economy in the world sometime in the mid-twenty first century. There are, however, certain political issues that could prove to be the proverbial 'fly in the ointment' in the path of China's rightful role in the future world affairs. One of them is the 'Taiwan affair'-a problem that has defied a satisfactory resolution ever since the Communist forces defeated the Kuomintang in the Chinese Civil War in 1949 and Chiang Kai-Shek retreated to Taiwan along with 2 million of his supporters from the Mainland China. The political status of Taiwan (or the state of Republic of China) has, since that time, been a source of concern for China as well as the rest of the world."

Abstract
In this paper the writer compares and contrasts three articles - "Sustainable Globalization" by Simone Borghese and Alessandro Vercelli, "Globalization and the Environment" by Nicholas A. Ashford and David Suzuki's "Economics and Politics". The writer argues that each article raises intelligent points but that each one is also given to emotional or infelicitous language as well as to conclusions that are not infallible. The writer maintains that the main idea, fundamentally, of all of the articles is that globalization has exacerbated global inequalities and that international and domestic efforts must be undertaken to rectify the situation.
From the Paper
"By comparison, the second article, "Globalization and the Environment," an article penned by Nicholas A. Ashford, does not devote its opening pages to outlining the structure of the argument being set forward. Rather, Ashford begins right away by criticizing how the laws governing public health policy in the United States have been dominated and shaped by rational choice theory and by other free market economic fetishes. Ashford's first page is committed wholly to outlining the characteristics of the "American Disease" in health policy - a "disease" he attributes, in part, to government non-interventionism (the government, in other words, sees itself as a mediator and not as a trustee for public health and for the environment) and to the curious conviction that the industries which are creating problems in various aspects of public living are nonetheless the industries which will find a way to resolve the problem."

Abstract
Globalization is centuries old and has proceeded throughout history at an irregular pace and with uneven intensity. Economic and cultural globalization have accelerated again late in this century, after almost 50 years of regression. More and more, national economies are now integrated into a single global marketplace through trade, finance, production, and a dense web of international treaties and institutions. Cultural products with widely recognized icons are shared globally. The speed and intensity of global connection and integration in the last two decades have provoked serious debate about their cultural and social consequences and, in this context, deep concern about the continuing capacity of the state to provide social justice. The paper focuses not on economic globalization, usually the principal subject of analysis, but rather on the cultural and social dimensions of global connection and integration. This paper describes this idea and its origins so as to understand in depth the true rationale of globalization. It then examines the political and the economical proportions which power the environment of the debate in this area. This study is based on historical and descriptive analysis which is considered to be among the most popular methods in international and comparative studies. These methods help to trace the roots of the research problem and its effect on the present debate about globalization. At the same time, the descriptive technique helps explore the relationship between the different elements that are associated with the contemporary developments of globalization.

From the Paper
"Such a radical undermining of people's existing values and cultures has a corrosive impact on their sense of who they are, what they want and what they respect. It attacks spiritual values and faith traditions. The cumulative effect in countries is a crisis of cultural confidence, combined with the increased economic uncertainty and crime which global integration often brings. This creates real problems for social solidarity, whether it is at the level of nation, community or family. While it offers shiny new goods as compared to old faded ones, the market offers no replacement for such community solidarity."
