[3] GLOBALIZATION VS GLOBALISM

GLOBALISM
• Seeks to describe and explain a world that is
characterized by networks of connections that
span multi-continental distances
GLOBALIZATION
• Concerns with the increase or decline in
the degree of globalism
• focuses on the forces, the dynamism or speed
of these changes

“HOW?”
GLOBALIZATION
• Looking at the thinning or thickening of
globalism is globalization
EXAMPLE:
Thin globalism = Silk Road
Thick globalism = Global Financial Markets of Today
*how fast we get from thin to thick globalism
is GLOBALIZATION
“THIN TO THICK”
”The difference between internationalism
(globalism) and globalization is like the
difference between making love and rape.”
-RITCHIE (1996)
GLOBALIZATION
Economic Process
—corporations move money, factories and goods
around the planet at ever more rapid rates of speed,
searching for cheaper labor, cheaper raw materials,
and weak consumer, labor and environmental
protection.

Political Ideology
—the assumption that humans and the planet will be
better off if the global market is left unfettered by
ethical, moral, social, or environmental
considerations.
GLOBALISM
• The belief that we share one fragile planet
whose survival requires mutual respect and
careful treatment of all its people and its
environment.
• A set of values and ethical beliefs requiring
active practice in our day-to-day lives.
Active communications to foster understanding, the
sharing of resources on the basis of equity and
sustainability, and mutual aid in times of need are three
central activities that undergird globalism.
GLOBALIZATION –VS- GLOBALISM
• While globalism incorporates the idea of the “Global
Commons” to describe the ozone layer, oceans, and
genetic diversity, globalization is the exploitation of
these resources by giant corporations beyond the
reach of democratic processes.

• While globalism implies respect for diversity,


globalization demands the standardization or
homogenization of nearly everything and everybody.
GLOBALIZATION –VS- GLOBALISM
• Globalization is both creating massive problems
(ozone depletion, climate instability, mass
migration, etc.) and destroying our ability to
cooperate across boundaries and borders to
address these very problems.

• Globalism — the belief that the well-being of


each and every neighbor, no matter how far
away, affects us all—is the only way to combat
the assault of globalization.
