DEBRIEF – IS GLOBALIZATION GOOD OR BAD?

Globalization is not necessarily good or bad.

It’s effects can be good or bad, or the way it’s done can have good or bad consequences.

The problem is: the benefits of globalization aren’t necessarily distributed equally.

Do you think there’s a bias in this chapter of the text?

TRANSITION TO SOCIOLOGICAL PERSPECTIVEEverything we’ve done so far has been either an introduction to globalization or an anthropological view of globalization.

Now we’re going to look at a sociological perspective.

This perspective examines the social inequalities that result from Globalization.

Sociologists study institutions, and economics is an institution.

We will examine economics to understand social inequalities.

Some terms that will help us to understand these social inequalities include: World Income Inequality and Income distribution.

“CANADA’S RICHEST 86 PEOPLE HAVE AS MUCH WEALTH AS THE POOREST 11.4 MILLION”

“In 1999, the 86 wealthiest Canadians had a net worth of nearly $120 billion — equivalent to the bottom 10.1 million Canadians —

but that increased to nearly $180 million in 2012.”

-Is that an equal income distribution?

IMPORTANT POINTS

Transnationals prefer to set up their assembly-line operations in low-wage, low tax countries because it keeps their production costs down.

Think of conditions for a labourer in Ontario vs. conditions for a labourer in Alang,India.

In developed societies, the labourer has rights that make production more expensive (like wages, benefits, labour conditions, number of work hrs, quality of the air, etc. ).

Developing countries have lower wages and work standards so the production of things becomes cheaper in poorer countries.

THE RESULT CAN BE UNFAIR ECONOMIC DISTRIBUTIONThe developed countries can exploit the developing countries.

The profits of creating this much cheaper manufacture aren’t primarily going into the pockets of the labourers, they are going to the multinational corporations and developers.
