is globalisation good for the health of children in developing countries?

Answer 1

No far from it! Globalisation is simply a posh word for social growth. Everybody suffers from growth, more industrialisation, more pollution, more noxious gases in the atmosphere and ultimately accelerated global warming.
It won't be long before we all resort to having pure oxygen pumped into our homes, in an attempt to rid our bodies of the poisons from the outside world.

Answer 2

Sure it is, globalization creates further opportunities to developing countries, creating more jobs etc.

Although protectionist policies adopted by the EU and the US make this more of a pipe dream than a reality. They flood the markets with cheap surplus produce that come from their subsidized farms. Developing countries with little means to compete with such backings often suffer, especially those dependent on agriculture as a means of income.

With the break down of talks in the WTO it seems more children in developing countries would have to starve until the EU and US get their act together.

Answer 3

in the direct sense it is not very relevant, because what those children need is things like clean water and access to primary medical care.

indirectly though it is of immense value because globalisation is helping the developing countries to become developed.

simple example I know specifically about.... people working in India and Malaysia for outsourced activities for moderate-sized British companies with worldwide clients, like Xansa and Axon, are earning much more than in the days 30 years ago when jobs in Malaysia were all about tin and rubber plantations and Bangalore was little more than a large market-town for the surrounding agricultural region.

Answer 4

yes,but...not just for that...its also the only way forward for the human race....but it will not happen too soon,because of all the resistance opposed by who now is rich & powerful....someday though!

Answer 5

i can give you a lot of blah blah, but i ll summarize it in few words; i don't think so.
