The Effects of Globalization

Paper Summary:

This paper takes a closer look at the effects of globalization, both positive and negative. Through research and analysis, it has become apparent that globalization is beneficial to the rich, but detrimental to the poor. Though globalization has spurned on increased foreign direct investment and multinational corporations to set up shop overseas in an effort to reduce costs through decreased wages and operational costs.

From the Paper:

"When it comes to growth, some economists believe in the trickle down theory, meaning all people within the state benefit from economic growth. However, given the fact that world poverty still exists in the 21st century, this is positive proof that the poor are not reaping the benefits from an economic boom. The wealth created from the economic rise just before the turn of the century proved otherwise by making the rich richer and the poor poorer. "
