Learning Task #2 (Position Paper)
“Globalization, history and development:

a tale of two centuries”
People always have their own perspectives, especially when it comes

to politics, areas, and other topics. These opinions will spark a discussion that
will turn into a disagreement, and for some reason. It will become an issue
due to misunderstandings. When it comes to Globalization, history and
development people will have there own sights, opinions and ideas.
Furthermore, the term globalization is used in two different ways, causing
some misunderstanding and it will become an issue.
Trade, investment, and financial flows are not the only forms of
economic openness. It also includes cross-national flows of services,
technology, information, and ideas. People's cross-border mobility, on the
other hand, is heavily regulated and restricted. Asymmetrical economic
interconnectedness exists. In the industrialized world, there is a significant
degree of interdependence among countries. The emerging world is heavily
reliant on the developed world. From 1870 until 1914, the era of laissez-faire
prevailed. Goods, capital, and labor were able to circulate almost freely
across national borders. The government's involvement in the economy was
modest. Of course, there were disparities between countries. In general,
however, these characteristics were more readily apparent in Third World
countries than in Atlantic economies. The openness of economies that
characterized this period was accompanied by a rapid development of cross-
border trade, investment, and finance. According to Jan Nederveen, the idea
of periodizing globalization raises a number of concerns. First, many
research, due to its presentist leanings, accepts globalization uncritically,
overlooking structural patterns, misreading contemporary developments, and
presenting as innovative what are older aspects. Second, a presentist
viewpoint suggests a Eurocentric viewpoint, reinforcing the widespread
stereotype that world history begins with the “rise of the West.” The traditional
globalization cutoff points of 1500 and 1800 mirror old-fashioned Eurocentric
history. Third, this perspective on globalization is not universal. It excludes or
minimizes non-Western contributions to globalization, which contradicts
historical evidence and makes little sense in an era of developing
multipolarity, when multicentric interpretations of world history have grown
more important. Fourth, it is out of step with other research on globalization.
Fifth, globalization periodization is not a given and is a point of contention in
globalization research. Deepak Nayyar expresses his point of view right at
the outset of the topic, emphasizing that he is more interested in political and
economic than religious ways in order to help people understand what
globalization is and what it can offer in terms of our country's growth. Others
are concerned in defining globalization, history, and development in religious
terms. As a result, there are different viewpoints on both sides, which has
turned it into a problem.
I agree with Deepak Nayyar because I've seen how globalization
benefits our country both politically and economically. In the digital economy
of the internet era, which has dissolved the national barrier of time and place,
allowing for the control and ease of integration of national markets, Philippine
technology will be faster and cheaper. When it comes to trade flows, the
Philippines' economy has benefited from the reduction of trade barriers,
which has allowed global commerce to grow at a faster rate over time. New
technologies have formed distribution channels as a result of the IT
revolution, which are difficult to restrict under protectionist trade rules. When
it comes to advertising, the Philippines' money flows have become
increasingly multinational in the internet age. Globalization and its driving
forces have provided various work prospects to all Filipinos in the Philippines.
I believe that the best course of action for this problem is for people to learn
and understand politics and economics because politics helps you to know
your rights, clarifies what you believe, helps you to understand our nation's
parties, and prepares you for adult life, while economists engage in current
events. Learning to utilize statistics and read critically is part of studying
economics. Economics majors are fascinating people because they can
explain why economic phenomena occur as well as how economic
performance may be improved. Adult learners will benefit from studying the
contemporary world since it will help them become interested in
contemporary world problems and concerns that all societies face, as well as
gain competences and knowledge. Adults learn about the nature of
relationships through studying these challenges and issues.
