Globalization. Yes! And no!

Hey everyone! Hope you all had a great Easter. I really enjoyed spending time with God and thanking him for paying the price of death to give me the gift of salvation. My God's not dead he's surely alive. :) This week I am going to discuss the many pros and cons of the ever increasing phenomenon of globalization.
Globalization Is the idea that the development of social, cultural, and Economic relationships on a world scale has created a single social order or world system. There are many pros and cons to this theory that have been debated widely among sociologists. Some of the pros, I believe, include that globalization allows people from all over the world to feel connected in some way. Globalization also helps developing countries that are suffering. The diffusion of American companies to other countries helps provide jobs for the people in poverty. This then raises the country's economy, which further develops the country.
There are also many cons to globalization. One con is that globalization causes individual to lose their cultural identity. They adopt the customs trends that are made popular through globalization and gradually forget their individual customs that belong to their family and country.
In mu opinion I believe that globalization is a bad phenomenon. I don't like the idea of everyone becoming the same and doing the same things. I think that we all should have our own unique characteristics that add to the society as a whole.
