Why Segregation Still Matters/ Segregation in Today\’s Society. Discuss
">
In looking at how the world is becoming more populated and more developed in general, this also brings to light problems. As the population continues to grow, people will be filling more and more areas of the world. This is leading to more travel and more international business and relations amongst different countries. As people and business transfer to new areas, so do ideas about values, beliefs and the way of life. This process is referred to as globalization. While there are benefits to globalization, there are also draw backs, including the different power dynamics that can occur between groups. There is not equality all over the world, and as globalization spreads, some fear that inequality will too.
After watching the clip reflect on how the population growth is going to affect the next few generations. Write a paper which details future problems, explains how equal or unequal the world will be, and discusses how the process of globalization will be a good or a bad thing.
