Digital Story 2

Posted by Ewa Wawrzonek

For Digital story Number 2 the topic that I have chosen is the question : what is globalization? To start elaborating on this problem one must look at the globe as entity and in that entity there are incredible changes taking place. This starts with the disappearing of the boundaries of nations in our world . The fact that travel is so quick makes it easier for people from all over the world to communicate. Modern nations are losing there identity as the currency for example changes for instance Europe which no longer has individual currencies instead  all the countries in the Union have the euro .Globalization however is causing the national belonging in individuals to certain country decrease along with ethical values.The old is rejected ,and  the new is forming.To find their way in the world people are experimenting new ways of life.Responsibly is also a big changing factor. People tend to wash themselves of responsibility for example a pilot  who is flying a plane filled with people gets high on cocaine and not able to manage it causing a crash . The situation could have been avoided.The change that we see occurring  is spreading like a wave throughout the world.There is nothing that can stop because our communication is so advanced. after WWII the Soviet Union , now Russia had the Iron Curtain which sealed them off from the rest of the world allowing no new ideas to pass through.In today's world with computers nothing can no longer remain a secret .
