Discussion 1: How does globalization actually appear in people's lives? Think about where you grew up. Did a factory close down, changing the economic basis of the city. Can you link that to globalization? Did increasing global connectivity enable you to expand your knowledge of the world, or (especially) your feeling of rightfully belonging in it? Are decisions made far beyond the boundaries of your chosen city transforming it? Has the city you lived in been able to take advantage of the forces of globalization, or has it generally been negatively affected by them? Have locally owned stores increasingly been replaced with large corporations? These are just some ways in which you might try to address this question. How have people responded to issues caused by globalization?
