    All the developed countries today with high technology industries have become so through massive state intervention and highly protectionist policies over many years. This includes the USA, the UK, Germany, Japan, China, France, Russia; South Korea. Only once a country like the UK or the USA rises to become a world power do they begin to advocate for low trade barriers to cement their advantage after trade relations are massively stacked in their favour.

    What is most important is that the final product that is produced is biodegradable .Ultimately the true cost of globalization is not the wage are the condition of the worker, But the contamination of our world .Nature fibers ,vs synthetics more people eat fish than work in a factory making things .Do we want to be all eating fish full of microfibers?

    I got excited when she spoke about an empirical approach to examine the benefits of trade. Then she started pulling out survey data as "evidence" and I became very disappointed.

      @@K31vSiy The right evidence would be the actual numbers on how much international trade increased purchasing powers of the citizens of lower income countries rather than numbers on the opinions of said citizens. Their opinion does not matter. Only the actual impact on purchasing power does.

    If all you judge life by is money, then globalisation is great for a few people. Debt slavery is basically what capitalism has become. "Enriching poor nations" equates to richer ones stripping their natural resources and abusive labor practies

    statistical comparison get biased, sometimes, in advent of globalization competitiveness, increased and many countries failed to adapt accordingly. these lead to job loss and poverty in countries like india. Local government should safeguard the national interest first in an attempt to adapt globalization. So local worker will not be left without a job, just because they are not competitive enough to meet the challenges

    Globalisation is the future you can't protest it. The only problem I've got with it is governments and central banks not taking accountability and responsibility for lending (for example Indonesia)

      But how would the world come to a consensus on who the one leader is? Should one person have all the power to rule a world? We make the assumption that the one leader would be good and have the best interest of the world at heart, but a lot of power can make even good people do bad things. Also, what type of government would we follow? Personally, I'm for oligarchies with a small group of leaders working together for the best interest of their people and voted into power by their people with term limits.

      Ok. So she's awesome enough to speak almost perfect English as a second language, but you're so linguistically incompetent that you can't even comprehend a slight dialectical variation on your native language? I don't think she is the problem.
