Globalization = Imperialism

Paper Summary:

This paper presents an exploration of globalization and imperialism and argues that globalization is actually nothing more than imperialism with a different name. The writer uses several sources to illustrate the definition of imperialism and then holds it against globalization to prove they are one and the same.

From the Paper:

"A new pedagogy will be in order if the progression of imperialist globalization is to stop. Imperialism is the act of obtaining power by taking over other areas. This may mean a true take over such as was seen recently in Iraq, or it can be more subtle by way of an economic takeover. An economic takeover is what the process of globalization is advocating with its spread of capitalism, led by technological wonder and awe. In the end however it is nothing more than a new way for some nations, primarily America, to gain control over other nations through the use of business clout and dependence."
