Today, we began reading chapter 13 in our textbook, "Exploring Globalization".
Not everyone in the world has the same view on a person's basic needs, or human rights. But I believe that no matter who you are or where you live, you should be entitled to the same rights as anyone else. I don't think that because we live in a wealthy, prosperous country, we should have any special rights that people in developing countries such as Bangladesh or Indonesia don't have.
Also, the question driving our studies, "To what extent should I, as a citizen, respond to globalization?", will have different meanings to different people. Right now, I believe that it begins with taking a position on the issues of globalization and deciding what we can do about them in our homes, communities, and the world.
