WHAT IS GLOBAL GOVERNANCE?
Global governance or world governance is a movement towards political cooperation
among transnational actors, aimed at negotiating responses to problems that affect more than one state or
region. Institutions of global governance—the United Nations, the International Criminal Court,
the World Bank, etc.—tend to have limited or demarcated power to enforce compliance. Global
governance involves multiple states including international organizations with one state having more of a
lead role than the rest. The modern question of world governance exists in the context of globalization
and globalizing regimes of power: politically, economically, and culturally. In response to the

The United Nations
The United Nations (U.N.) is a global diplomatic and political organization dedicated to international
peace and stability. The U.N. was officially established in 1945 following the horrific events of World
War II when international leaders proposed creating a new global organization to maintain peace and
avoid the abuses of war. The U.N. initially had just 51 member states; today, the organization, which is
headquartered in New York City, has 193 members. Major U.N. initiatives include preventing conflict by
exploring options to ensure peace, providing food and medical assistance in emergencies, and offering
humanitarian support to millions of people around the world. While the United Nations is sometimes
criticized for its policies, bureaucracy, and spending, the organization has accomplished hundreds of
successful peacekeeping missions.
4. THE SECRETARIAT
The secretariat consists of the ―Secretary-General and tens of thousands of international UN staff
members who carry out the day-to-day work of the UN as mandated by the General Assembly and the
organization's other principal organs. As such, it is the bureaucracy of the UN, serving as a kind of
international civil service. Members of the secretariat serve in their capacity as UN employees and not
as state representatives.

ABSTRACTION
Third World described those countries that did not align with either the First World or Second
World countries after World War II and are generally described as less-developed countries. The Third
World included the developing nations of Africa, Asia, and Latin America.
Fourth World was coined in the 1970s, referring to the nations of indigenous people that live
within a country. These groups often face discrimination and forced assimilation. They are among the
poorest in the world.

Introduction
The need of a constantly expanding market for its products chases the bourgeoisie over the whole
surface of the globe. It must nestle everywhere, settle everywhere, establish connections everywhere.
The bourgeoisie has through its exploitation of the world market given a cosmopolitan character to
production and consumption in every country. . . . In place of the old wants, satisfied by the production
of the country, we find new wants, requiring for their satisfaction the products of distant lands and
climes. . . . And as in material, so also in intellectual production. The intellectual creations of individual
nations become common property.

1. What are the words you have guessed?
2. What is your idea about globalization ?
3. Does media affect culture?
4. What do you mean by imperialism? and how is it related to culture?
5. Could culture become hybrid?
The view received concerning the globalization of culture is one in which the entire
world was molded in the image of Western culture, primarily American. The popularity of Big
Macs, Baywatch, and MTV is described as unmistakable signs of the fulfillment of Marshall
McLuhan's Global Village prophecy in both popular as well as technological discourses.
American hegemony is therefore mainly imputed to the world's mass media. After all, new media
technologies such as satellite television and the Internet have generated a steady flow of
transnational images which connect audiences around the world. How will teenagers in India ,
Turkey, and Argentina follow according to popular wisdom a Western lifestyle of Nike shoes,
coca-cola, and rock music without the global media? Hence the putatively strong effect of the
mass media on the globalization of culture.
The role of the mass media in the globalization of culture is a controversial problem in
the theory and study of international communication. Early media impact theories, usually
referred to as theories of "magic bullet" or "hypodermic needle," claimed the mass media had
strong effects on the viewers The discussion about media impact has since undergone an ebb and
flow that has prevented any researchers resolving or agreeing on the extent, nature and
implications of media influence. In international communication, however, core theoretical
concepts clung to a belief in influential media impacts on cultures and societies At the same time

TEACHING LEARNING ACTIVITIES
OPENING GUIDE QUESTIONS
Religion
https://hubblecontent.osi.office.net/contentsvc/latest/ui/index.html?
Religion, much more than culture, has the most difficult relationship with globalism. First, the two are
entirely contrasting belief systems. Religion is concerned with scared, while globalism places value on material
wealth. Religion assumes that there is “the possibility of communication between humans and the transcendent.”
This link between the human and the divine confers some social power on the latter. Furthermore, “God”, “Allah,”
or “Yahweh” defines and judges’ human action in moral terms (good vs. bad). Globalism’s yardstick, however, is
how much of human action can lead to the highest material satisfaction and subsequent wisdom that this new
status produces.
Religious people are less concerned with wealth and all that comes along with it (higher social status, a
standard of living similar with that of the rest of the community, exposure to “culture,” top-of-the-line education for
the children). They are ascetics precisely because they shun anything material for complete simplicity―from their
domain to the clothes they wear, to the food they eat, and even to the manner in which they talk (lots of parables
and allegories that are supposedly the language of the divine. A religious person’s main duty is to live virtuous,
sin-less life such that when he/she is assured of a place in the other world (i.e., heaven).
On the other hand, globalists are less worried about whether they will end up in heaven or hell. Their
skills are more pedestrian as they aim to seal trade deals, raise the profits of private enterprises, improve
government revenue collections, protect the elites from being excessively taxed by the state, and, naturally,
enrich themselves. If he/she has a strong social conscience, the globalist sees his/her work as contributing to the
general progress of the community, the nation, and the global economic system. Put another way, the religious
aspires to become a saint; the globalist trains to be a shrewd business person. The religious detest politics and
the quest for power for they are evidence of humanity’s weakness; the globalist values them as both means and
ends to open up further the economics of the world.
Finally, religion and globalization clash over the fact that religious evangelization is in itself a form of
globalization. The globalist ideal, on the other hand, is largely focused on the realm of markets. The religious is
The “mission” being sent by American Born-Again Christian churches, Sufi and Shiite Muslim orders, as
well as institutions like Buddhist monasteries and Catholic, Protestant, and Mormon churches are efforts at
“spreading the word of God” and gaining adherents abroad. Religions regard identities associated with globalism
(citizenship, language, and race) as inferior and narrow because they are earthly categories. In contrast,
membership to a religious group, organization, or cult represents a superior affiliation that connects humans
directly to the divine and the supernatural. Being a Christian, a Muslim, or a Buddhist places one in a higher
plane than just being a Filipino, a Spanish speaker, or an Anglo-Saxon.
Culture
Culture and religion are inextricably interwoven. Indeed, on the surface, one could argue that they are the same.
What is the difference between culture and religion? In the purest sense of definitions, religion is a subset of culture.
Culture, itself embodies the language, traditions, kinship systems, shared values, and beliefs that define a society.
Pretend you can now zoom up to 50,000 feet above the earth ‘s surface, so we can have a broader view of the
cultural and religious landscape. Now, from our vantage point, we might see American culture and American religions as a
subset below us. What is American culture? How is it different from Canadian and Mexican culture? Go back to the basic
definition: language, traditions, shared values, kinship systems, and beliefs. Can you give more supporting ideas about
these dimensions of Globalization?
Realities
In actually, the relationship between religion and globalism is much more complicated. Peter Berger argues that far
from being secularized, the ―contemporary world is…furiously religious. In most of the world, there are veritable
explosions of religious fervor, occurring in one form of another in all the major religious traditions―Christianity, Judaism,
Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, and even Confucianism (if one wants to call it a religion)--and in many places in imaginative
syntheses of one or more world religions with indigenous faiths.
Politics
From an interdisciplinary point of view the link between politics and religion raises many issues. Politicians are
mostly concerned with the issues that they or their constituents want to promote. In some cases, these issues may not
provide a benefit for the majority of the public. Globalization has the same effect. Globalization may benefit some but not
others.
Economic
In today ‘s world, where information and its instant quality are readily available to even the most remote of sectors
in the world, religion, if it is to survive, has adapted and utilized technology and its light-speed ability to maintain a grip on its
members. Religion and its ceremonies are still practiced within a temple or church, yet we see the influence of technology
upon religion as we now have a DVD version of the bible for all Christian followers to appreciate, not only in the digital
versatile disc version, but there are possibly half a dozen channels on basic or digital cable dedicated to religious practice
and teachings. Religions have also made the leap onto the information superhighway, which brings religious teachings into
every home and monitor in a global setting.
Activity Processing:
1. How did you find the activity? What or how did you feel upon contributing to the success of your group and
