Introduction
Safety Nets, Politics, and the Poor, by Carol Graham deals generally with the problems associated with providing for the most economically disadvantaged persons in societies experiencing the transition to market economies. The work begins with a general discussion of the concept of and need for social safety nets during periods of economic transition, and ends with a comparative assessment of the efforts in this context of several countries.

Abstract
This paper looks at globalization and discusses how it has exacerbated the pre-existing inequalities between the poor global south and the wealthy global north. It illustrates how globalization forces some people (predominantly in the southern regions of the planet) to work while permitting other people (predominantly individuals residing in the global north) to become wealthy.
From the Paper
"To start with, it is commonly known that powerful multinational corporations in the global north habitually take their manufacturing operations from Europe and/or America and deposit those aforementioned manufacturing operations in global south countries where they can avoid the onerous regulatory regimes, high corporate taxes, and high wage costs they associate with the north. At the same time, the movement of jobs and plants to the south has the unhappy effect of not only costing workers jobs in the north but also of reducing the south to the subordinate position of being "hewers of wood and drawers of water" for multinationals that are looking for cheap human resources that can be utilized in a working environment that is more permissive than the highly-regulated work environments of America and/or Europe. A good example of this phenomenon can be found in the IT sector where skilled U.S. workers are losing jobs to individuals overseas (Sosbe, 4) - presumably because the "cost of doing business" vis-a-vis wage expenses is lower in global south nations which do not have a strong tradition of labor activism or of government involvement in employee-employer relations."

Abstract
This paper discusses globalization and global labour patterns. The paper argues that in a globalized world corporations are determining the labour conditions in both developed and developing countries. It suggests that the corporations are essentially making cheap, unskilled and flexible labourers.
From the Paper
"Globalization and Global Labour Patterns Globalization is one of the most controversial issues in politics and economics. In "Note on Terminalogy" David McNally defines globalization as, "The mainstream term for the new world Economy of the past twenty years" (McNally 9). How exactly has the world economy changed? While discussing the political and economic changes that have occurred over the last three decades Teeple explains, A system of highly integrated world trade was an irreversible fact by the end of the 1970s, confirmed and hastened by the new means of transportation and communications, whose increased productivity were transforming the worldwide distribution of products and hence the global conditions for valorization (Teeple 71)."

Abstract
This article examines the cultural, commercial, political and environmental effects of globalization. The writer then looks at the related challenges and dangers. The writer discusses how the existence of international monopolies together with the third world sweat shops and additional factors endanger global survival. The writer further discusses that globalization's exportation of environmentally and perhaps socially unsustainable Western materialism to populous developing nations such as India and China is also worrying for the future of the planet.
From the Paper
"Evidence of increasing hegemony by an ever shrinking number of multinational conglomerates is fuelling increasing concern regarding global cultural, commercial, political and environmental effects from such inequitable distribution of power. The creation of international industrial monopolies and massive fortunes of unprecedented size, accompanied as it is by equally massive down-sizing, unemployment, environmental degradation and the exponential increase of Third World sweat shops and child labor, seems to be leading to disaster on a global scale."

From the Paper
"Enhancement of the concept of 'Global Marketing' is being extensively fostered in both the fields of professional as well as domestic societies. The domestic markets cannot single-handedly generate the income as well as the growth potentialities needed by several business enterprises. Several business enterprises are desirous of marketing in global markets; however they are faced with the deficiencies of the expertise as well as financial resources to market abroad in an efficient manner. (Stephens 25) Global marketing points towards comprehension along with explanation of the countrywide variations in detecting similarities relating to transnational issues."

Abstract
The paper discusses possible international relations involving the US, Europe, and third world countries in light of today's trends and events. The author speculates that Europe is set to eventually rise and outpace the U.S.
From the Paper
"A look into the future of international relations, I believe, will reveal progression toward a true global community. This single-team approach will reach into such issues as protecting the environment, government, trade and civil right. But international relations will be multi-polar. We see evidence already of powerful government entities sprouting up alongside the United States, vying for a piece of the power pie. The bipolar international order came to a close with the end of the Cold War. At that point, the world began to move toward a multi-polar order. This, in turn, made way for the creation of a new, rational and fair international political and economic system - one that will foster international peace and security in the future."

Abstract
The paper discusses how it is relatively easy to be pessimistic about the future in our modern world. The paper notes the daily reports about wars, terrorism, increasing poverty, the spread of HIV/AIDS and many factors that suggest that the future is a very bleak one. The paper suggests, however, that there has been an overemphasis on the negative view of life in modern society. The paper looks at phenomena such as global warming, the energy shortage, the advent of the Internet and the field of science and technology in a positive light and maintains that civilization has potential for a positive future.
Outline:
Global Warming and Climate Change
Energy Resources
Communications
Science and Technology
Education
Conclusion
From the Paper
"It is relatively easy to be pessimistic about the future in our modern world. One only has to glance at the news to find aspects of our world that portend a gloomy and depressing future. There are daily reports about wars, terrorism, increasing poverty, the spread and HV/Aids and a host of other factors that suggest that the future is a very bleak for humanity on this planet. The recent announcement from the scientific community about the increase in global warming and climate change suggests that the entire human species might disappear in the future. One could easily fill an entire book with dire and pessimistic prophesies about event that bode ill for the future of humanity."

Abstract
This paper examines how the business world is constantly changing, meaning that organizations have to constantly adjust to keep up with the changes, including the changing nature of management itself. It looks at how, in order to effectively manage in the future, organizations have to be aware of the emerging trends and adjust their approaches to management based on these trends. It analyzes the four functions of management, which include planning, organizing, leading, and finally, controlling, and considers what changes are taking place now and what the end result might be.
From the Paper
"The third management function is leading, which refers to how employees are managed. Before considering how employees are managed, it is necessary to consider what the trends are in relation to customers and other parties in the external environment. The major trend in relation to customers is a focus on relationship building. As one source notes, "A shift is clearly taking place from marketing to anonymous masses of customer, to developing and managing relationships with more or less well-known or at least somehow identified customers? (Gronroos 1994, p. 22). The same approach to building relationships is also seen with other third parties, such as suppliers. Organizations are focused on creating partnerships with other organizations as a means of maintaining control. The important point about the emphasis on building relationships is that only the employees of an organization can achieve this."

Abstract
This paper discusses how, over the past few years, global warming has evolved into several imminent crises, such as air and water pollution, the extinction of various animal and plant species, global population growth, the deforestation of the rain forests in South America and Asia, an increase in rural development and rapid changes in global climates and temperatures. The paper looks at how the main culprit for these crises is inescapably linked to the burning of fossil fuels and the negative interaction of human beings with the natural world. It also discusses current and potentially future efforts to slow the process down such as the Kyoto Protocol.
From the Paper
"In layman's terms, the modern appellation of global warming is not too different from Fourier's "giant greenhouse," for it is now referred to as the "Greenhouse Effect" which has come about as a consequence of the burning of fossil fuels, such as coal, natural gas and oil, by human beings and Fourier's "giant smokestacks" which crowded the landscape of Western Europe shortly after the beginning of the Industrial Revolution circa the early 1800's. As Bruce E. Johansen explains it, "The burning of fossil fuels was key to the economies of many industrialized nations" during the 19th century, a situation which in great measure remains so to this very day, but "the gases and related matter that were released into the atmosphere when fossil fuels were burned" during this time were not seen as being immediately hazardous to man nor to nature."

From the Paper
"The purpose of this research is to examine Alvin Toffler's book, Future Shock, which deals with the manner in which the world is moving progressively toward a future that no one can fully control and few can even partly predict. In large part, this derives from the technological revolution and from the manner in which technology feeds upon itself, resulting in an even faster pace of technological change and development (27-28). The Rip Van Winkle-like effect of constantly finding oneself in a world that has changed in many ways since it was last examined is what the concept of future shock is all about.
This is not to say that Toffler has written a book that deals exclusively with technology. To a great extent, technology is merely the catalyst with regard to the changing roles each of us play in society in the course of our daily lives. As Toffler ... "

The Face of Globalization, 2007.
A look at forecasts, trends and possibilities in the future of globalization.

Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper discusses how from a social evolutionary perspective, globalization represents a shakeout of existing cultural diversity. It looks at how globalization as an event has obviously been ideal and beneficial for some cultures--such as American and Western cultures--while others have suffered and disappeared as a consequence--such as many Third World cultures and societies. It also contends that globalization will never be able to destroy all cultural diversity as it expands its influence largely on local market demand.
From the Paper
"There are two major problems with this approach to the development of a global society. First, it assumes that culture is entirely a consumable product. While it is true that culture is largely material in nature, which is not the same as saying that all culture can be bought and sold in the same way as hamburgers and cups of coffee. Even if the products introduced into new markets can completely supplant local offerings, which is not the same thing as saying that those products are also replacing the local culture--as if local culture is little more than a collection of mom-and-pop storefronts.

Abstract
This paper contends that the globalization of commerce will lead to more ethical corporations and a more profitable global marketplace. It also discusses how, as a result, this will lead to more countries becoming involved in the competition until the balance between the various cultures is reestablished. A more balanced marketplace will mean that each culture will have a place and interaction and respect will be fostered.
From the Paper
"Globalization involves this increasing interaction and integration of national economic systems due to growth in international trade, investment and capital flows, but it also has the effect of integrating societies and cultures (Emory University, 2006; Globalization Guide, 2006; World Bank Group, 2006). This is currently one of the biggest arguments against globalization of commerce- that it has started to create a global culture. The most obdurate opponents are those who view this new culture as primarily American. Our corporations have extended their influence into almost every corner of the world, not only through their sales, but through their operations as well. "

Abstract
This paper discusses how global warming is now a widely recognized reality and contends that it is currently being treated as an economic and political issue but should be treated as a scientific issue. It argues that the Kyoto Protocol, set up to reduce emissions of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases, should never have allowed economic considerations to justify exemptions.
From the Paper
"Although a total of 166 countires have ratified the Kyoto Protocol, the countries that would have the most impact have not. The United States, currently the largest emitter of greenhouse gases, has refused to sign the agreement because it states that exemptions to developing countries such as China and India are unfair. Instead, the United States is sticking to its "strategy" announced way back in early 2001 to, "reduce the greenhouse gas intensity of the American economy by 18 percent over the 10-year period from 2002 to 2012. Unregulated emissions from exempted countries under the Kyoto Protocol are getting progressively worse. The International Energy Agency has just released a report late this year revealing that China will surpass the United States in 2009, a decade ahead of previous predictions, as the largest emitter of main gas linked to global warming.
