The purpose of this assignment is to propose solutions to mitigate the injustices, inequalities, and negative consequences produced by globalization. As this course has made clear, global migration has led to government policies that make it difficult for people to move across national borders and subject undocumented immigrants to the constant threat of deportation. Immigrants can be exploited as workers and subject to anti-immigrant backlashes in the host society. The global economy can lead to exploitation of low-paid workers in developing countries, environmental degradation and pollution in these countries, and global warming. Both the global economy and mass media are dominated by rich, developed, Western countries, which exacerbates global inequalities between countries and leads to cultural and economic imperialism. Global migration can lead to the spread of infectious disease. The global proliferation of Western fast food cultures and the sedentary, high-stress and overworked lifestyles of global capitalism have produced various negative health consequences. The international economic inequalities between developed and developing countries and environmental hazards have led to adverse health consequences for peoples living in poorer countries.
Instructions:
Propose three possible solutions or ways to reduce the various problems caused by globalization and bring social justice to peoples suffering from its inequities and detrimental consequences, especially in poorer, developing countries. You can propose more than three solutions if you wish, but it is generally better to write in-depth about a few. There is of course no one remedy that can deal with all global problems at once, so you are being asked to come up with specific programs and
recommendations that can mitigate certain types of injustices or negative consequences created by specific forms of globalization.
You should not write vague and general proposals off the top of your head based on what you remember from this course. Since this is your final assignment, you need to carefully review and restudy relevant lectures, readings, and videos from the various course modules while thinking about solutions to mitigate the globalization problems discussed in these modules.
Your proposals can be of various types. They can consist of new government regulations, programs, and/or treaties based on either the national or international level; projects and programs run by local or international organizations or NGOs (Non-Governmental Organizations); social movements, political mobilization, and protests; legal action and lawsuits at the local or international level; international programs and collaborations run by international governance organizations like the United Nations or the World Health Organization; or simply efforts to raise awareness and consciousness (for instance, among consumers, employers, or citizens in various countries) of the injustices associated with globalization in an effort to change their behavior. You are very welcome to do internet research on existing programs in order to get ideas, but you should not simply talk about pre-existing programs. They have to be ones that you have come up with, although they can resemble ones that already exist.
