Globalization


The globalization process has influence on different spheres of human activity, increasing more and more knowledge about three actions and processes: cultural, social and economic, those by means of models are based on analysis of the historical development society.

Each country has own identity, language or social organizations, differentiating each other thereby creating their own culture, the people need for information on exact time and technology used by means of communication influence the globalization of culture of the nation (cultural globalization, 2008), as well as, in particular social influences at work and family life by the need of new potential for the development and creation of wealth ("the social dimension of globalization", April 14, 2003), which leads economic level to different countries to open their markets to achieve a better or equated global competition ("H encyclopedia", understanding the economic globalization, 2008).

The adaptation easy and understanding of other cultures result in a mixture of national and international culture, relegating their own identity in many cases to background and contribute in other ways, to extend knowledge in art, ideas, techniques and habits (cultural globalization, 2008), which causes social opportunities and varied job impacting the level of family life ("the social dimension of globalization", April 14, 2003), otherwise, in the economy area to create opportunities for growth in other sectors that were restricted State monopolies are released ("H encyclopedia", understanding the economic globalization, 2008).

Actually increasingly weaves a greater interdependence between countries by creating a cultural, social and economic globalization that bring advantages as support each other more quickly in different aspects with strengths immediate real time of each nation and disadvantages as the danger of irregular exchanges causing economic and social chaos or losing identity giving irregular wealth to each country. Globalization is a movement in history that must provide positive and balanced opportunities its participants in all areas without minimizing them.

Advantages or disadvantage of immigration




Immigration is the introduction of new people into a habit or population. The international Organization for Migration (IOM) said there are more than 300 million migrants around the world. Europe hosted the largest number of immigrants, with 70,6 million people in 2005. Many people go out to other countries for many reasons one of them is: People from poorer places will seek to go to reach one, they are unable to find a good job in their cities, and the principal reason is the economic. Some disadvantages about this are: Discrimination people laugh about the accent of the immigrants, also this triggers vandalism due to economic life of immigrants, not only vandalism but also immigrants life in marginal areas, as these do not have government assistance then they should live in different poor parts. But not all is bad sometimes immigrants have luck and they also have advantages such as: They don’t pay taxes, for example social secure, they bring other culture cheap labor in different tasks such a building, greater opportunities in education, health and housing while trying to immigrate legally to other country more economically stable. As a conclusion Immigration bring many advantages and disadvantages but we have to be carefully when people come our country because sometimes this happen because they need a better life, but other because they try to made damage, also we have to respect all cultures because we don’t know when we will be a immigrant too.

Ethnic Conflicts


In many countries and many periods a person’s ethnic identity has had profound consequences for this or her physical safety status, and economic prospects. Violent confrontation along ethnic lines is the most apparent form of ethnic conflict, and it recently has claimed lives in such diverse places throughout the world. The three most terrible ethnic conflicts have been the conflict in Rwanda, the Arab-Israeli crisis, and the Holocaust during World War II.
One important ethnic conflict was the Hutu and the Tutsi conflict in Rwanda. There are two major ethnic groups in this African country: the Hutu and the Tutsi. When the country was colonized by the Belgians in 1916 they claimed that the Tutsi were superior to the Hutu based on the idea that their skin were lighter and their features more European. As a result, The Hutus suffered years of repression by the Tutsi. In 1994, the Hutus took revenge. Tutsi people were slaughtered, hunted out of their homes, killed with guns or machetes and left to die on the road by unofficial militia group called the Interahamwe (“those who attack together”) and Hutu civilians were forced to murder their neighbors and children were not spared in an insane effort to wipe out the next Tutsi generation. Over 800,000 Rwandans were in the space of 100 days.
In addiction the Arab- Israeli conflict is one between the state of Israel and its Arab neighbors, particularly the Palestinians. For centuries Jewish lived into several countries, especially in Europe in what is know as Diaspara. This conflict was caused by conflicts such a territory religion, and political ideas. Nowadays Israel has peace deals with Egypt and Jordan.
Finally Germans believed that they were superiors that Jewish, Some scholars maintain that the definition of the Holocaust should also include the Nazis systematic murder of millions of people in other groups, including ethnic Poles, Romani and other political and religious opponents. Legalization to remove the Jews from civil society was enacted years before the outbreak of World War II.
Ethnic conflicts such as in Rwanda, the Arab-Israeli crisis, and The Holocaust during World War II triggered the worst feelings a human being can have. Any country or society can go through such terrors. Different religion, race, and beliefs are not good reasons to kill each other. It depends on new generations not to repeat the terrible crimes against humanity committed in different times and places.

GLOBALIZATION DISEASES




H1N1 and west nile Virus are two famous globalization diseases. H1N1 was the bomb last year all over the world, adn Costa Rica wasn`t the exception. On April 2009 the cases od H1N1 in Costa Rica were near to 60.”20 of wich were discarted following a laboratory analysis”
Even the Costa Rican`s president Oscar Arias Sánchez, has been infected with the H1N1 virus commonly know as “the swine flu”. “Arias fell in on Saturday (august 2009) complaining of a sorethroat and temperature” Presidental minister, Rodrigos Arias said.
Also there`s the west Nile virus that according to CC is a flavovirus commonly found in Africa, west of Asia and the middle east. It is commonly found in Africa, west Asia and the middle East.
It is commonly know because it infects the neurosystem in a person and it is of easy transmition, because the transmition vector is a mosquito.
These three sideades are just examples of how akso diseases can be cosmopolitan and why all must be concern about the prevention programs and not only in our country if not arround the world, because the fact of not haveng and endemic disease don`t give us the security of not having one later.

Weapons of mass destruction


Weapons of mass destruction have many negative consequences. This source makes world situation decline in some many aspects, social, economical and cultural. One of the facts why mass destruction weapons can’t do any good for the world is the violation of the basic right that we all have, live.
According to Irak solidarity in a analysis about the violation of human rights they suffer last time an war some of the violation they had were: murders, tortures and bad healthy situations. Irak is just an example. Also for the country good, the government promotes in people the idea of war, knowing that is something morally wrong. People ddying every day because of the law overage of allows jobs and the bad educational situation just gets worst in a country with resources that are destiny to pay weapons production and wars campains. “Not having an army made us grow in economy education, health, social security, nature protection, allowed us spend in economy develop”. This is the situation of Costa Rica maybe we are not the most powerful country but we are developing our country with the sources that in other countries are used to war and weapons.
