21 Jun HOW DID THAT AFFECT THE PRICE OF THE ITEM?
As a consumer buying goods in American shops and stores – how is globalization affecting your life today? Give a couple of examples of high ticket items you have purchased or are thinking of buying. Where were they made? How did that affect the price of the item?
2. As an employee who has worked for several years how has globalization affected your job salary so far or your job prospects over the coming years? If you have not yet spent a few years working, describe how globalization has affected the jobs or livelihood of your parents?
3. Think of the degree or profession you are pursuing at Pierce College? Can ANY part of it be outsourced to India or China? How will that affect you? Will the salary you are hoping to make be affected by salaries in similar professions in other countries?
4. Finally, do you think globalization is going to go away anytime soon? IF yes, describe how. If NO, what can you do NOW to prepare yourself to face its pressure? These are complex questions. They can’t be answered in a sentence or two. I encourage you to use examples from the articles to support your arguments.
It is HIGHLY LIKELY that your Discussion Board this week will be substantially longer than 600 words. I will expect to see references and ideas to all of the articles posted here as well as your personal reaction to the questions I posted. Please also note that some of the articles have their own questions attached as well. Again, yes I expect answers but they need not be very long.
1) The Rise of the Rest –This article will give you a quick overview of the most important changes of global stratification during the last 50 years AND explain what it means for America’s success in the 21st century!
2) The World is Flat – Please read this book review of one of the most pivotal books on globalization written during the last 10 years. The book author, Thomas Friedman, writes frequently about American competitiveness and the need for American workers (that’s you and me!) to adjust to a global economy.
3) Globalization’s Reality – Who makes our toys and why? Is it bad for Vietnam to produce our toys? Would it be better for the USA if we produced our own toys?
4) Our Safety Net is Disappearing – Why are American workers who do GOOD work being fired by their own employers? Is this just one of two cruel employers or are there greater , global pressures forcing companies to become so ruthless? How will these pressures affect you and your career?
5) The Life of an Undocumented South Asian Immigrant & 6) A Good Provider is One Who Leaves –
What would you do if you grew up in an underdeveloped country? What are the forces that push/pull these workers to go overseas? Is it good for their country if they go work overseas? Is it good for their families if they go and work overseas? Are these workers any different from Mexican workers coming to the United States to work? (NOTE for article 6: This is a long article; You only need to read up to the bookmark in the article, where it tells you “You need not read beyond this …”)
