In your own words, what is economic crisis for you?
WHAT IS ECONOMIC CRISIS?
Economic crisis is a problem that almost everyone faces. For me it is the
downfall of the economy that isn’t easy to solve at all. It is somewhat the lack of
financial support from the government that needed to be resolved. With an
economy starting to have crisis, this simply means that the land or country suffers
from a lot of conflicts from various kinds of problem.
Sometimes this really happens when a business is not handled properly and
when the person doesn’t know how to manage it. This also happens when some of
the government officials did not plan properly for the economy and that they take
the money that is supposed to be for the society and to its people.

1. How do we make globalization more just?
Globalization is the process of interaction and integration among people,
companies, and governments worldwide. It involves goods, services, data,
technology, and the economic resources of capital. Globalization is described as
the growing interdependence of the world's economies, cultures, and populations,
brought about by cross-border trade in goods and services, technology, and flows
of investment, people, and information.
We make globalization more just when we have a well-governed
government. The government is responsible to operate in a country. When they run
well, globalization is will be better. Every country has different style of
governance, if every countries lead well to its people then maybe globalization
wouldn’t that be hard. Globalization can be attained justly when economic,
political, or cultural unity between members is promoted properly by the
Intergovernmental Organizations.
For some competitive companies, they help in the growing of the
globalization in the world. In order to have better experience in the globalization,
companies should manifest good leadership. They should make a list of issues to
tackle from each division such as managing finance, sales, marketing and a lot
more fields. To have a just globalization, each governments must start to develop
long-term action plan that corporate missions, visions and activities that may lead
to various opportunities Leaders must develop good desires for their people. They
must learn wise strategies.
Another thing is to understand the culture of the people. Understanding the
culture of each government in every country can help improve the reconciliation of
everyone. It can help prevent war between the government and its people. Leaders
should always carry good discipline in themselves.
Being competitive isn’t bad at all but make sure that it is in good way.
Always think about the people that surrounds you. Having this kind of attitude can
lead to a competitive government that improves globalization.
2. How is the state affected by globalization? How is the nation affected by
globalization? Do these institutions/concepts remain relevant? Why/why not?
Globalization is the word used to describe the growing interdependence of
the world's economies, cultures, and populations, brought about by cross-border
trade in goods and services, technology, and flows of investment, people, and
information. The globalization affected the states positively because they are part
of the country that has higher economic value. Rich countries such as states try to
neutralize such competitive effort, using globalism as an ideology, and
conventional orthodoxy as a strategy.
States and nations was affected positively in globalization because they have
higher potential to be a member of globalized country. They already have goods,
services, data, technology, and the economic resource of capital. They also have
advances in terms of their transportation like the steam locomotive, jet engine, and
container ships. States and nations were not being neglected by the globalization
because it can roughly see through their way of lifestyle even in
telecommunication infrastructure such as Internet and higher forms of mobile
phones.
They have also improved their trade and transactions, capitals and
investment movements, migration and movement of people, and the dissemination
of knowledge. Another effect of globalization effect in states and nations is that
they can even handle environmental challenges such as global warming, water
drainage, air pollution and over-fishing.
This concepts remain relevant because until now they still improve their
trading strategies to the other members of the globalization. They manifest good
will on marketing and harmonization in trading. It has a very good influence to
other nation, as it is keep improving their government. Localizing the goods and
products means it can bring people in that nation or state in synchronization
together through unity, peace, and dignity with pride.
When every states and nations will maintain this type of governance then it
may help improve the globalization and makes other countries to do better and
have plans on achieving good globalization same to the states and nations.
