The way I see it, if you throw billions of people together, which today's world has like never before, aren't we bound to run into conflict. Eventually, once we get used to each other and work out certains areas of concern, won't the world just calm down? On a much smaller scale, it is like merging two highschools. There's different school colors, teachers, schedules, classes offered, etc. But eventually, things calm down after a while. Now muliply that analogy to the world's scale. The merging process will take longer given the shear size of the world, but won't it work out the same. Sure, we are talking deaths instead of lunchyard fights. However, once this era of globalization is over, aren't we looking at a Golden Age? The 3rd world nations will catch up to the first world, there will be more ideas to build off each other, and resources will be introduced for new products given the new world market.

You make a valid point about forcing globalization onto cultures that don't want it. However, knowing that many of those areas of uneducated, unhealthy, and show an overall lower quality of life, isn't it our responsibility to force them to adjust. I'm not saying I agree/disagree with how the globalization is occuring, but don't we owe it to them. I understand where they are making their decisions from but isn't it almost like a parent that makes their child eat vegetables?

Probably but the clash of ideologies comes to mind.

globalisation is not the wish of all. I think globalisation is part of the process of political union of the planet.

Forcing globalization of people doesn't help.
If you haven't noticed, it isn't moving at a normal acceptible speed, in which it would normally progress, it is being push along by people with an agenda, and that is pretty obvious.

nice job rationalizing unrestricted free market for large corporations.
based on the current level of turmoil, what differentiates today from the rest of history?
the size of the conflict, or just faster communication?
