Political Science 404F, Globalization and National Sovereignty
First Term, 2003-2004
Seminar Report for October 30th
Name: Jan Overgaard
A. ... The two most important points addressed in the readings for this session were:
a) Scholte examines the most interesting question in the readings for this week: How has globalization affected the forms and the intensity of social hierarchies? ... In this way Scholte finds that globalization has widened class gaps by not giving even access to the free global markets. The second way globalization has generated greater class divisions follows from the decline of the redistributive state. ... Like Scholte, Thomsen also addresses the country stratification and the growing North-South gap globalization is causing. ...
b) Albert Paolini’s “Globalization” wasn’t enjoyable reading. ... I especially found his three representation of the Third World in globalization misleading. Looking at the Third World as something outside of globalization doesn’t catch the structural excluding dynamic in globalization. ...
b) China was mentioned as a country which is broken into two parts caused of globalization.
