For some people, globalization is so feared it is synonymous with world destruction. In the end, for all we know, maybe this will be proven before it is over. In reality however, there are many good things that have resulted from globalization(1, Premise). Let’s for a moment focus on the economy, even though there are many other advantages that have been brought forward that will also be discussed. Many Americans do not appreciate how efficient our markets are, in this case efficiency in reference to supply and demand is number one. These efficient markets allow economies to grow. As many have learned in a global world, when one economy grows, it spurs growth in all the other economies that are connected to it. In this way, reverberations of success are felt across the world, even when they are most profound in one area. Needless to say, this is a very good thing. This is partially a result of what I just mentioned, but wealth equality around the world goes much deeper than that. Perhaps a better phrase than wealth equality is “standard of living.” Globalization does several things that are undeniable at the end of the day. First and foremost for one it creates jobs, which is a priority to the economic success of any market(2, Premise). Along with job creation it improves infrastructure while it also allows more people to live at a higher global level every day. Mainly regular access to medicine, clean water, food production, housing, etc., things we take for granted here in the United States. Many if not most third world countries do not share these same day to day things we categorize as necessities. Things they would refer to as luxuries. Globalization results in partnerships between countries and organizations, which in turn could help bring these countries along in many of these areas. This also makes relations much more stable between both. Agreements are much more frequently found by partners of vast…

With the growing standards of the world and the existing concepts and complexities in political, economic and socio-cultural ideologies, man has always and continuously pondered over the aspects of his nature. Unity, equality, trade and commerce are at the forefront of man 's complexities. With these thoughts in mind, man has moved through history trying to satisfy his desires in relation to others.
