Topic > The Geography of Globalization - 1598

Globalization distorts the boundaries between rich and poor in the global community. More specifically, globalization entails consequences of inappropriate exchanges of investments and people between different parts of the world. Linking this idea to concepts such as spatial interaction (a realized movement of people, goods or information between two destinations), human/nature relationships and the links between globalization and elements such as “space, place and landscape”. An interesting example of globalization in action is China, a small country that captures the dilemmas and contradictions that capture the phenomenon of globalization. Finally, the unequal relationship between the Global North (the rich) and the Global South (the poor) has created a dividing line, along the equator, that keeps many millions poor while others (much less) rich. Interaction is the movement of goods and services, people and information, between places and regions. In the case of China, a certain “flow” has shown its relationship with the Western world. In particular, “heavily conditioned” foreign investments have been pumped into that Southeast Asian country for a long time now, while China has returned low-cost materials for purchase on European and American markets. Initially, this idea doesn't seem so bad; after all, as in Western cultures, we created our production line in their country. But if we are not careful, will this lead to Western-style approaches to business management and even the introduction of Western technology (this technology to stabilize one's economy)? Unfortunately, the evidence is heavily in support of these facilities falling short of the problem elsewhere. In closing, the previous paper examined the spatial interaction between the Global South and the Global North. In particular, the document noted how the North offers much-needed investment but can take it away in a moment of pique; furthermore, the contribution explores how the exploitation of natural and environmental resources and the plundering of human resources - the exploitation of women in terrible working conditions, for example - are all parts of the same asymmetric relationship that keeps the South in a sort of slavery to north. Ultimately, until international organizations and economic levers – the IMF, the World Bank, even international courts – are wrested from the hands of northerners and placed (at least in part) in the hands of southerners, the same “old problems ” will continue to resurface.
