    Allyana Katniss Gail Remollena
    The social dimension of globalization focuses on how globalization impacts people's lives, families, and societies. It examines the effects on employment, working conditions, income, and social support. Globalization is argued to further marginalize vulnerable groups like women, children, indigenous peoples, and the poor, as the rich continue to benefit more from global processes. The social dimension also analyzes trends in global demography, migration, culture, gender issues, indigenous rights, and peace studies.

    Social Dimension of Globalization

     The impact of globalization on the life and work of people, on their families and their

    societies.

    As what was discussed in our previous discussions, globalization is a

    multidimensional set of processes that destabilize and transform our present social condition of

    nationality into one of globality (Steger, 2014). Globalization can be seen and sorted through

    different dimensions and one of those is the social dimension. Basically, when we talk about the

    social dimension of globalization, we are talking about the impact of globalization on the life and

    work of people, on their families, and their societies (Gunter & Van der Hoeven, 2004). The

    structural changes that take place in the global economy vastly affect the quality and

    characteristic of people's lives. For instance, this dimension looks into how a Filipino teenager is

    into Korean Pop or Western Music, how they connect to singers from different parts of the world

    with a different language, how people are connected despite these barriers, and how such music

    can influence the identity of an individual distinct from their own culture.

     Relatively particular to the effect of globalization on employment, work condition, income

    and social support.

    Mostly focused on labor, the social dimension of globalization also caters

    security, culture, identity, and the coherence of families and communities (Gunter & Van der

    Hoeven, 2004). Under labor, this dimension delves deeply into the effect of globalization on

    employment, work condition, income, and social support. For example, how does the

    progression in technology affect the employment of blue-collar workers? How is the depletion in

    economy due to the pandemic create a massive increase in unemployment and a reduction in the
    salary of majority of the working class? The social dimension aims to further generate a wider

    understanding of globalization's impact upon the aforementioned aspects of society. 

     Globalization furthers marginalization of the vulnerable sector and serves as a threat to

    least mobile sectors, the environment and indigenous cultures.

    It is quite explicit that globalization do have its good and bad effects among

    individuals. In this particular dimension, it perceives globalization as a phenomenon furthering

    the marginalization of the marginalized, vulnerable, or minority sectors such as women, children,

    indigenous people, black people, members of lgbt+ community, and peasants. As how the

    famous aphorism goes, "The rich get richer and the poor get poorer", the social dimension

    claims that globalization continues to deprive women equal rights with men, children the right

    for free education, indigenous people rights to keep their lands, black people equal opportunities

    with white people, non-binary people fair treatment compared to heterosexuals, and peasants of

    sufficient aid, considering that in 2017 billionaires earned enough money to end extreme poverty

    seven times over.

     Entails global demography and migration, culture, gender, indigenous people, and peace

    studies.

    This discussion entails global demography and migration, culture, gender,

    indigenous people, and peace studies—which are to be discussed by the rest of the group.
