Module 7
Why are some countries or regions better at doing something's than other countries or regions?
I believe that it boils down to how hungry that country or region is. How bad the masses want a better life.
Take China for instance a majority of the people have lived in such a stifling environment that they were just waiting for a chance to spread their wings. China has Such a hunger that has been growing for generations. They're like the water pushing agents a dame,once they find a minuet crack it rushes through with great force at first, trickling down to be a constant familiar flow.
On the other side you have Mexico, although they have layers of people that are suppressed they have a top layer that are living their ideal life. This difference makes it impossible for them to feed their hunger.
I believe that all countries or regions are capable of doing great things, it all depends on the wisdom , knowledge and willingness to work together for change.
What is self-directed consumers? Why that would be me. I want to feel that I have a say in every aspect of my life, I don't want to have someone tell me that I am limited in anyway, the more a company makes me feel like I'm in control the happier I am. I related to the story on about the photographer. I'm a proud mom that thinks her children are the cutest things ever to grace this world, I love to take pictures of everything then I can upload them using soft ware that totally agrees with me.allows me to adjust them or it will do it for me. The days of the red eyes and blurs are long gone.
Does globalization mean Americanization?
In the beginning that is what globalization meant.
We are the ones that have castes the longest shadow for quite some time. As globalization has evolved it has now morphed in to a passion for people in all of the lands to become the best they can be using the help of the rest of the world. They are now unwilling to be limited by Someones else's idles of perfection.they want to create their own shadow.
I would have to agree with you that having control over every aspect of our lives and not having someone tell me that I can't something the way I want it. I love the freeing feeling the internet and computers have given us.
ReplyDeleteIndeed, people today now have much more power than ever before to control their own lives thanks to the influence of computers and the web. They have given more people greater control by allowing them to empower themselves to work and collaborate on a worldwide scale. I feel self directed not only in what I consume, but in the decisions I can make thanks to the flat world.
