2real Posted June 11, 2003 Question: What is the truest definition of Globalization? Answer: Princess Diana's death. Question: How come? Answer: An English princess with an Egyptian boyfriend crashes in a French tunnel, driving a German car with a Dutch engine, driven by a Belgian who was drunk on Scottish whiskey, followed closely by Italian Paparazzi, on Japanese motorcycles, treated by an American doctor, using Brazilian medicines! And this is sent to you by a Canadian, using Bill Gates' technology and you are reading this on one of the IBM clones that use Taiwanese-made chips, and Korean-made monitors, assembled by Bangladeshi workers in a Singapore plant, transported by lorries driven by Indians, unloaded by Sicilian longshoremen, trucked by Mexican illegal aliens, and finally sold to you. That, my friends, is Globalization! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

boycott Posted June 12, 2003 Globalization vs anti globalisation results anarcho syndicalism. globalization is alternative word for capitalism therefore only commercial values are strictly taken into account not human except for the productive part or delocalization, nothing is provided for the human seaking freedom and trying to break with misery. Anti-globalization: is sometimes doubtful cos misused by national protectionist therefore is not necesserly the struggle to take for a radical change in human conditions,,,whereabouts anarcho-syndicalism: anarchy could be redifined in something else than chaos and confusion cos that is the fake definition gave by authorities and bourgeoisie to lead the world.. this could be the new world order where there are no borders , where evrybody takes his life in hand and decides what he wanna be with no amalgam of any kind of power or reformism,,,,just like the way labor class liberated itself from slavery in the middle age in 19e but i guess this sounds like an utopia and we are a way too off Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
