DEEP IMPACTS
In the last five decades a triad structure prevailed
and in one end of this structure is the pluralist
economies based on market economy, a socialist
states attached to planned economy on the other
end.
Third structure is composed of the former
colonies of mostly the West-the developing
countries.
1. ECONOMIC ISSUES
Globalization affects economies profoundly.
It has strong effects on economic issues such
as income, income distribution, capital
formation, enterprises, competition and
information flows.
a. Income, Income Distribution and
Poverty
 Economic Income is the way for companies to
account for changes in the value of a given asset
in the market
*low-income
*lower-middle-income
*upper-middle-income
*higher-income
 Income distribution and poverty - The smoothness
or equality with which income is dealt out among
members of a society - It is divided into two: 1.
Finding divergence 2. Finding convergence
b. Capital, Finance, FDI and MNCs
• Financial Globalization is a
word that is used in daily
life.
• Describes the movement or
flow of money for the
purpose of investment, trade
or business production,
including the flow of the
capital within corporations in
the form of operations and
research and development.

c. Production and Competitiveness
In recent tears, global economy
transformed with the elimination of
obstacles against flows of goods,
services, capital and labor and with
the acceleration of technologic and
scientific development. While the
decreases in transportation and
communication lowered the
importance of location and promote
enterprises to move their activities to
low-cost locations, technologic
developments create new business
opportunities.
d. Globalization of
Knowledge
The globalization of knowledge not only

constitutes a relatively autonomous
process, but profoundly influences all
other globalization processes by
shaping the identity of its actors as well
its critics.
 Export oriented specialized industrial cluster:
Each country has some goods and services that
she is good at due to her advantages attained by
scale, resource based relative advantage, skill and
know-how embedded in institutions. These types of
activities are more important than they were as they
locate in clusters and permanent technologic
learning processes.
In both cases knowledge does not globalize.
Knowledge is anchored where it is generated and its
replication is impossible. Therefore this kind of
production results in specialization and trade.
There are four layers in the globalization of
knowledge. These are:
1. Local industrial specializations serving the world
and specific-skill based activities:
The winner gets all the goods and services:
There are some functions that are fulfilled by
globally known individuals or those who supply
different services and are well-known in the sectors
such as financial services, media, sports, science
and medicine. The activities that are fulfilled by them
can be transferred into international markets with
low costs. This can be done by disclosure of
consumers about the activity and its features or by
adaptation of consumption patterns such that these
products will be demanded.
2. Globalization through displacement (Global
product chains):
It is the shift of non-location-dependent
production to the low-labor-cost regions through FDI
or licensing. In this case knowledge flow occurs
from home country to host country.
3. Non-tradables or quasi-tradables serving locally:

Production is run where the consumption will take
place. In other words production depends on
location. In such conditions production is done in the
market under globally-known brands. That is to say
the mixture of global and local (glocalization)
prevails.
4. Debatable markets in manufacturing and service sectors:
It is the production of standardized product such as
durables, capital goods and other intermediate goods. As
standardized products are produced with codified knowledge
in general, the globalization of knowledge is pretty high.
WHAT TRIGGER GLOBALIZATION OF KNOWLEDGE?

• Development in the knowledge and communication
techniques.
• The globalization of production.
• The intensification of competition.
The global knowledge in turn increases competition and

therefore productivity.
2. Environmental Issues
An “environment” is the whole of surroundings
thing. Surroundings are defined by a central entity.
In ecology, environment refers to the surroundings
of humankind. Generally, environment refers to the
biological, physical and social things on the earth
or in habitable space outside the earth’s
atmosphere.
Acid Rain Effects
Acid rain is having harmful effects on
people and on the natural “ecosystem”
of the world. Scientists today are
convinced that acid rain is severe in
many areas, and that is is having an
adverse effect on the environments of
those location.
• Acid Rain
The primary causes of acid rain are sulphur
dioxide and nitrogen oxides. These chemicals are
released by certain industrial processes, and as a
result, the more industrialized nations of Europe as
well as the US suffer severely from acid rain.
Most sulphur dioxide comes from power plants
that use the coal as their fuel. These plants emit
100 million tons of sulphur dioxide, 70% of that in
the world.
Air Pollution
• Everyday, the average person inhales about 20,
000 liters of air. Every time we breathe, we risk
inhaling dangerous chemicals that have found
their way into the air.
• Air pollution can be found both outdoors and
indoors. Pollutants can be trapped inside
buildings, causing indoor pollution that lasts for
a long time.
FUNDAMENTAL CAUSES OF AIR POLLUTION:

1. Industrialization
2. Population Growth
3. Globalization
Air Pollution Effects
Of course, atmospheric pollution
would not be such a big problem it
weren’t for it’s harmful effects on
humans, animals, trees and the wider
environment. Each air pollutants exerts
their own specific adverse impacts,
from ranging from mild to really
damaging.
Global Warming
Global warming is called the greenhouse
effect because the gases that are gathering
above the earth make the planet comparable
to a greenhouse.
Global Warming Causes

• Overpopulation
• The number of different products and
human activities.
Rain Forest Destruction
• Atmosphere and oceans are not only the parts
of the environment being damaged. Rain forests
are quickly destroyed as well and their survival
is questionable.
• Unlike some environmental issues, rain forests
deletion has fortunately received significant
public and media attention.
• In addition to the Amazon’s rain forests, many
other forests are being cut down as well. In
Indonesia, Zaire, Papua New Guinea, Malaysia,
Burma, Philippines, Peru, Columbia, Bolivia and
Venezuela rain forests that were once great
have been lost.
Hazardous Waste
• Is waste that has substantial or potential threats
to public health or the environment. A hazardous
waste is a special type of waste because it
cannot be disposed of by common means like
other by-products of our everyday lives.
Ozone Depletion
• Gradual thinning of Earth’s ozone layer in the
upper atmosphere caused by the release of
chemical compounds containing gaseous
chlorine or bromine from industry and other
human activities.
Smog
• Is a kind of air pollution, originally named
for the mixture of smoke and fog in the air.
• Classic smog results from large amounts
of coal burning in an area and is caused
by a mixture of smoke and sulfur dioxide.
Water Pollution
• Is the contamination of water bodies,
usually as a result of human activities.
• Water pollution results when contaminants
are introduced into the natural
environment.
3. Social Issue
• Negative and positive
impacts against
globalization.
SOCIAL ISSUES IN
THREE CATEGORIES:
1.In Education
2.In Population
3.In Health care
Social issue: Education
Globalization and education then come
to affect one another through mutual goals
of preparing young people for successful
futures during which their nations will grow
increasingly connected.
Social issue: Health care

Globalization in health care offers
tremendous possibilities for good such as
rapid response to catastrophes, it also can
give rise to a new concern such as quicker
spread of disease.
