i believe globalisation could be a good thing for all the people in the world if it is under the careful guidence of the world leaders and related international communities

globalisation can promote trade,communication and understanding among people in different countries as well as it will affect the way people think and behave when people go out to see, contact people from different areas and even surf on the internet.so, i believe globalisation benefit people more than harms of negative side

We have to distinguish between globalization, which is understood as the phenomenon by which we achieve scale economies by engaging in production regardless of geographical barriers, as opposed to the awareness of the different nations and cultures.

Currently, globalization is that force that pushes senseless consumerism; since only in huge quantities there are scale economies that justify production regardless of the place of origin, as long as the final product is cheap, we end up with companies producing millions of items to sell all over the world.

That has severe environmental and social implications: There is a push for consumption, and since these companies have a mandate from their shareholders to maintain low costs, we end up with less than optimal solutions, often a compromise between profit and health. Example: pesticides and hormones in your food.
These transnational companies lack any overseer over their activities in other countries, and as such become de facto promoters of social inequality and political unrest. Example: Shell in Nigeria, and Oxy in Colombia and Peru.
The tale that globalization tends to increase international trade is just sophistry: that trade is just companies recovering what they produced. There is no real trade from the countries involved in raw materials extraction, or exporting services (labor) at a very cheap rate. If anything, you can see that the terms of exchange become increasingly negative for the underdeveloped countries.

And finally, there is the social aspect of that in the destination country: Becoming exporters of currency, and desperately trying to consume even more as if it were the answer to the continuously diminishing quality of life.

Think local.

globalisation may not be perfect but what is perfect in this not perfect world especially when we see people from poor countries having no food, no clothes and living under one dollar a day? we have to extend our help to these people who have the same right to access to the outside world and live the same way we do and i believe only we act globally can we acheive the aim.
