    Hi there, yours is a very informative and enlightening one, I really enjoyed reading it. I totally agree with you that “globalization and external agreements like NAFTA (The North American Free Trade Agreement) has contributed to Canada’s inability to have the freedom to develop her social policy system. If I may add a little more, I will say instead of ensuring a healthy and strong social policy for her citizens, Canada is being pressured into involving herself in several other unhealthy economic escapades with other nations of the world, especially wealthy nations. It was also very interesting to read you stating that “with other outside influences like IMF and World Bank Canada must consider the national budget when considering social policy.…

This is not far from happening, since the U.S. government do spy on their citizens for terrorism.

    I found Theorizing Globalization by Douglas Kellner to be a very information heavy reading. I did like the fact that it was shaped by critical theory because I was able to take what I had learned from the critical theory week to assess this reading as well. Kellner looks at the transformations in the global economy, culture, and politics within the context of the relationship between technological revolution and the global restructuring of capitalism. He also hopes to understand globalization in a dialectical framework between the progressive and emancipatory features and oppressive/negative attributes. With globalization, change can be both imposed from above and from below.…

    (J.Campbell, 1) In an age of information overflowing it could be difficult to connect and adapt to all the new things, therefore in order for individuals to understand and interact with this interconnected world, they must embrace global perspective and viewpoints for their own sake and for the humanities sake. (J.Campbell, 1) Some believe that globalization is intrinsically “good”, others believe it is inherently “bad”, and still others assert that while it is intrinsically neither good nor bad, it can have both positive and negative effects.
