Globalization is a widely discussed topic; it is therefore not all that easy to


explain such a complicated term in simple words. Advances in technology
such as mobile phones, airplanes, telephones and the internet have made the
growth of transport and communication networks possible, this means that
people and countries can exchange information and goods more quickly and
in a less complicated way, this process is called globalization. Globalization
is a process where countries around the world are becoming closer in a
number of areas. It influences people, immigration, employment, ideas and
knowledge. Globalization changes the face of society and the source of
demonstrations and revolutions presents us with far away cultures and even
allows us to pursue justice around the world.

1.1 Globalization affects developed countries differently than developing


countries. So for developed countries, globalization is bad for workers
because when companies move their operation to developing country that
means that worker are losing their jobs but globalization is good for
consumers in developed countries, when companies move their factories to
developing countries, they can pay workers low wages which means they
can sell their products at lower prices and this is good for consumers
because they can afford to buy more stuff. On the other hand, globalization
is good for workers in developing countries, it creates more jobs so that
people in poverty are able to earn money and support their families.
Developing countries often don’t have laws that protect workers like
developed countries do, so companies take advantage of their workers.
And that is the current situation of different countries especially in the
Philippines that is brought by the effect of globalization.

2. The relationship between globalization and religion is one with new


possibilities and furthering challenges. Religion takes advantage of
communication and transportation technology, it is at the same time the
source of globalization’s greatest resistance by acting as a haven for those
standing in opposition to its power. On the other hand, because globalization
allows for daily contact, religion enters a circle of conflict in which religions
become “more self-conscious of themselves as being world religions.” With
that, if religion will be globalized, it can possibly cause conflict and
misunderstanding considering the presence of competition of complexity in
religion worldwide.
2.1 Though religion is strengthened and fortified by globalization, it represents
a challenge to its globalization’s hybridizing effects. Religion seeks to
assert its identity in the light of globalization. As a result, different
religious identities come to the fore and assert themselves. Such assertions
of religious identities constitute a defensive reaction to globalization. 

3. The media are attracted by extreme terrorist acts not only because it is their
duty to report on any major event but also because the dramatic and spectacular
aspect of terrorism fascinates the general public. Media is readily accessible by
many, information can be easily disseminated through this that is why terrorist
usually use this platform to frighten the people in an area to achieve a political
goal. But then, terrorism should not affect the importance of freedom of
expression and information in the media as one of the essential foundations of
democratic society.
