Week 7 - The Narration

My persuasive argument thesis is:  Even though globalization and internet has made better world, internet's contribution to globalization is negative.


1. What do people already know about my topic?

People may know that almost of the Earth has been globalized. They can communicate with other people abroad on the Internet, even they talk to them face to face and hear their voices. Also, they can buy goods from abroad because  enterprises sell their products not only in their own country but also other countries, and people expend their interest, so they can encounter new things from other countries not just limited in their own country. They know that the internet has brought this phenomenon. Internet can connect people all over the world the world and contact new things through itself. 

2. What research has already been done about my topic?
-good explanation about globalization, especially it mentions about anti-globalization movement. Also, it deals with negative aspects of globalization so it lets me know that people recognize some negative effects of globalization.
- helpful and reliable research(report by UN) about negative effects about globalization. The report states that globalization make the gap between the poor and the rich much bigger than before by developed countries' dominance of the world's economic and cultural markets. Also, the report focuses on the spread of Internet and computer technology's impact on the globalization. This research can prove my thesis statement. The report warns that glaring, growing inequalities in the distribution of wealth between rich and poor countries. Therefore, I could strongly appeal and insist how globalization contribute negatively to out lives.

3. What are the implications of my argument (What if I'm right? What if I'm right and people ignore me?)

People should be more aware of negative effects of the internet. Although globalization connects the world, it has negative impacts on human life, especially among people from the third world and developing countries. In the case of developed countries, they go through the richer-get-richer phenomenon and the information lean too much on some people who already have information. These facts are the basis for persuading people and I should urge them to be cautious about globalization and be serious about this proble . Also, with those information and resources I think I have to persuade people who ignore me with more specific details and supports. My purpose is to aware people about the danger and awareness of globalization.

<My narration>

The definitions of ‘globalization’ are various. However, they have common idea that globalization is the process of interaction and integration in economical, cultural, and financial worldwide within various nations.
Many people think globalization is a recent one, but we can find globalization from thousand years ago. We can say the examples of trades many years ago between the easter countries and western countries. The merchants from both side sold their products to other merchants from different region, and the path named Silk Road connected areas in a distant such as Central Asia, China, and Europe, is the proof of their trades. In fact, the current wave of globalization which everybody knew began after the Second World War. After the war, many governments have adopted free market and open economic systems and policies. The international trades and investments increased between various countries. Many governments removed barriers in commerce and have established international agreements to promote trade in goods, services, and investments. Corporations took advantage of new opportunities in foreign markets and they started built their factories in foreign areas. Also, a huge amount of people immigrated and emmigrated.
Nowadays, Internet, affects a lot to people's lives in various areas. For example, the Internet enable companies to promote productivity through by much faster access of information and electronic transactions. Also, new jobs are created such as IT professionals and engineers. Internet has altered the structure of the mass media : local and national news changed into world wide news. Some negative view thinks Internet has contributed negatively to people's lives because English speakers dominate the media and they have popularized American culture. Whatsoever, Internet is indeed the major advancement in the modern era which make people easily connect, contact, and control other people and world.
All the aspects of Internet can prove that Internet has a signigicance on globalization. Due to the technological development, globalization has been facilitated. Mostly, internet promote faster and easier communication. Internet provides cheaper and faseter method of communication such as fast phone calls in a distance through web, and web cameras, microphones, messengers are all technologies that make people communicate with other people far from them through the Internet. These new types of communication which internet provide has a significant impact of globalization because it connects people all over the world.
Because of the globalization's effects, people think globalization positively. At first, people consider globalization as the greater opportunity for people around the world for economical increased standard of living.  Furthermore, There is a greater access to foreign culture in the form of movies, music, food, clothing, and more. Second, they think globalization brought economical effect. Also, knowledge and technologies exchanged and was shared among countries. Globalization provides the people of the developing countries different kinds of jobs to live their lives and the developed ones a great many benefits.
