English 10, Global Trade, What is Globalization? 1 What is Globalization? Understanding both the benefits and challenges Teacher Information Assignment Overview Students will read excerpts of three texts, each presenting a view of globalization. They will perform multiple readings of the three texts, each with a different purpose. Students will annotate and revisit the texts for each activity. After completing the Pre-Reading, First Read, and Second Read activities, the students will respond to an English Placement Test (EPT) type prompt where they will identify an argument, take a position on that argument, and use evidence from the excerpts to support their position. For scoring information, you may use The California State University system’s rubrics: http://www.calstate.edu/eap/scoring_guides_and_rubrics.shtml Standards Addressed California Common Core State Standards English Language Arts & Literacy in History/Social Studies, Science & Technical Subjects Reading Standards for Informational Text 6-12 1. Cite strong an thorough textual evidence to support analysis of substantive topics or texts, using valid reasoning and relevant and sufficient evidence. a. Introduce precise claim(s), distinguish the claim(s) from alternate or opposing claims, and create an organization that establishes clear relationships among claim(s), counterclaims, reasons & evidence. b. Develop claim(s) and counterclaims fairly, supplying evidence for each while pointing out the strengths and limitations of both in a manner that anticipates the audience’s knowledge level and concerns. Objectives By the end of this activity students will be able to • Take a position on a subject by developing an argument* with a conclusion • Select and integrate a variety of appropriate content-related vocabulary to achieve diverse purposes in writing • Draw evidence from informational texts to support analysis, reflection, and research. • Write arguments to support claims in an analysis of substantive topics or texts, using valid reasoning and relevant and sufficient evidence. *Argument is what an author/source claims is - or ought - to be.

fromTheBlessingsandChallengesofGlobalization
byDanielGriswold
Ashortdefinitionofglobalizationis“thegrowingliberalizationofinternationaltradeandinvestment,andtheresultingincreaseintheintegrationofnationaleconomies.”EconomistDavidHendersonoftheMelbourneBusinessSchoolexpandsthedefinitionintofiverelatedbutdistinctparts:
*theincreasingtendencyforfirmstothink,plan,operate,andinvestforthefuturewithreferencetomarketsandopportunitiesacrosstheworldasawhole;
*thegrowingeaseandcheapnessofinternationalcommunications,withtheInternettheleadingaspect;
*thetrendtowardcloserinternationaleconomicintegration,resultinginthediminishedimportanceofpoliticalboundaries.Thistrendisfueledpartlybythefirsttwotrends,butevenmorepowerfullybyofficialpoliciesaimedattradeandinvestmentliberalization;
*theapparentlygrowingsignificanceofissuesandproblemsextendingbeyondnationalboundariesandtheresultingimpetustodealwiththemthroughsomeformofinternationallyconcertedaction;and
*thetendencytowarduniformity(or“harmonization”),bywhichnorms,standards,rules,andpracticesaredefinedandenforcedwithrespecttoregions,ortheworldasawhole,ratherthanwithintheboundsofnation-states.
Theexpansionofinternationaltradeandforeigninvestmenthasnotbeentheresultofsomegranddesignimposedontheglobaleconomy.Ithasbeenanadhoc,decentralized,bottom-upprocessresultingfromtwodevelopmentsofthe1980s:thecollapseofglobalcommunismandthedemiseoftheThirdWorld’sromancewithimportsubstitution.ThefalloftheBerlinWallandthefinaldisintegrationoftheSovietempiretwoyearslaterreleased400millionpeoplefromthegripofcentrallycommandedandessentiallyclosedeconomicsystems.Meanwhile,thedebtcrisisof1982andtheresulting“LostDecade”ofthe1980simposedapainfulhangoveronmanyThirdWorldnationsthathadtriedandfailedtoreachprosperitybyshunningforeigncapitalandbyprotectingandsubsidizingdomestic“infant”industries.BeginningwithChileinthemid-1970sandChinalaterthatdecade,LDCsfromMexicoandArgentinatoIndiamorerecentlyhavebeenopeningtheirmarketsandwelcomingforeigninvestment.Theglobalizationofthelastdecadehasnotbeentheresultofablindfaithinmarketsimposedfromabovebutoftheutterexhaustionofanyalternativevision.

Incontrasttothosefailedpolicies,certaincountrieshavemanagedtodramaticallyimprovetheirlivingstandardsbyderegulatingtheirdomesticeconomiesandopeninguptoglobalmarkets.TheFourTigersofEastAsia—HongKong,Singapore,Taiwan,andSouthKorea—arethemostprominentexamples.FromtypicalThirdWorldpovertyinthe1950s,eachhasachievedastandardoflivingtodayequivalenttothatofindustrializednations,withper-capitaincomesinHongKongandSingaporerivalingthoseofthewealthiestWesternnations.
