Global Engagement in an interconnected world, it is additional file which is given by profesor.
And here is some example also given by professor.
- We live in an interconnected world, where events in one location can be felt around the globe. Economic, political, environmental, technological and cultural events have become linked. Some examples:
*A drought in coffee-growing regions of Africa or South America can significantly reduce the amount of coffee beans in the annual harvest. This usually results in increases to the cost of a cup of coffee at Starbucks, since decreased production of a scarce resource leads to buyers trying to "outbid" each other to obtain the resource.
* Increased manufacturing in China has caused a greater need for energy to support these factories. This in turn can result in (1) higher levels of air pollution in China, raising greenhouse gases, and (2) competition for the scarce resources of oil, gas and coal among developed countries who rely on them for electricity and transportation.
* Unusually cold winters in Europe lead to a need for more electricity to heat homes and workplaces. Russia is a major source of energy in this region. Dependence on Russia may lead to European countries' reluctance to oppose policies that could dampen trade with Russia, even if these policies are detrimental to the individual governments.
* Civil war in Syria has resulted in millions of civilians fleeing starvation and violence to nearby countries. The presence of so many desperate people becomes a drain on the humanitarian support available for refugees, as well as a glut of potential workers in neighboring countries (Greece, Hungary, Germany, etc.), which can have devastating impacts on these economies.
