Globalization, essay.

Hello, I am student from Czech republic and i have written essay about globlaization. But it became more complicated than I planned and now I am not sure about its grammatics. Does anybody see anything incorrect? Thanks you a lot.


From my point of view, the biggest problem of nowadays is the globalization. When i was younger, I thought, that it is quite healthy and natural process, which brings us fruit from the whole world and lets us enjoy exotical commodities. Obviously I knew it has also some cons, but i wasn't able to name them (if you don't count the ecological problems), so I made little of it.

But then, one day, I have started to attend voluntary seminar on the Faculty of Law, which made me think about globalization more deeply and complex. And as the result my opinion changed dramatically. This seminar has every week a different topic - the globalization in the eye of some particular science (Economy, Ecology, Sociology) and is led by experts in those areas. So every week I gain a lot of new galling facts.

Lets have a closer look on globalization from economical point of view now. We know that 800 biggest corporations control one third of total world's GDP. This one third decides about technological progress, because it is not crumbled up. And guess what, those corporations don't incline to invest in undeveloped countries, because it's too risky. And this disparity is even deteriorated by so called brain trade. It means, that studied people are moving to richer regions, where they can get more money for their work. It creates chain. Western world is on it's end, Czech Republic in the middle of it and the poor countries on it's begining. End is only profiting, middle is both profiting and loosing and begining is only loosing. All in all, trade-globalization allowed to spend major part of resources produced worldwide (no matter if natural or human) in developed countries.

Another fact is, that the capital became the most important criteria in developed society. Everything is measured by money in first place. So the biggest corporations are slowly, step by step, becoming rulers of the world. And because the capital can be restricted only by the capital, they are becoming unrestricted (!) rulers.

Until now, I spoke only about economical facts. I did so, because economy turned into the decisive principle. But that is in my opinion not good. For example the high measure of consumption is taken as the sign of advance and is unambiguously positive for economics. But it is not so black and white, because we must have on minds, that the resources are not infinite.

Limited resources are often featured when talking about the untenable growth of population. I always thought that it is the problem of China and India. But the real problem lies somewhere else. We don't need to talk about absolute number of persons, we should think about their material demands. Now the situations stand so that the 14 % of population consumes 50 % of energy. Allow me the small simplification: Earth is capable of feeding 30 milliard of Chinese, but not of 10 milliard of Europans and Americans.

Globalization has much more dimensions and we can find something positive in every single one, but it brings ecological threats, religious conflicts, cultural unification and many more biting problems. Globalization is natural and irrecoverable process and we cannot do anything against it, but we should, at least, keep it in our minds.

Thanks for your patience, it is very important for me.
