Module Number 3 Content Topic Approaches to the study of
globalization
Teacher Mr. Enrique B. De La Torre Date October 3, 2022

PART 1. EVALUATE
Evaluate the content of discussion in the comic strip. How do you see its philosophical implication to
respond to the emerging globalization?
It says globalization allows us to have a broader knowledge regarding certain things. we can acquire a lot of
information through globalization, and it sometimes complicate our lives because our mindset and actions
are mostly based on this globalized information.

PART 2. EXTEND
Give an example of the various globalization processes, and then inform the society of the outcomes of
those processes.
Globalization processes
a. Globalization as globaloney
Example: Global countries are becoming more
associated with each other and national borders
become increasingly unimportant.
b. Globalization as economic process
Example: Free trade agreement
c. Globalization as political process
Example: United Nations
d. Globalization as cultural process
Outcome of globalization processes
This perception led to the belief that we live in a
highly globalized world, but in reality, it was much
less globalized than many people believe. We are
not as connected as many believe due to the law of
distance, which states that differences between
groups of people determine their ability and
willingness to interact with one another.
Tariffs are removed, lowering import prices and
benefiting consumers. However, several domestic
industries suffer since they cannot compete with
countries with lower living standards. As a result,
they may go out of business, and their employees
may suffer as a result.
The United Nations' work has an impact on people
all over the world, on issues ranging from
disarmament to efforts to combat terrorism and
extremism; from conflict prevention to
peacekeeping and peacebuilding; from disease
prevention to the promotion of gender equality and
universal education; from refugee resettlement to
humanitarian assistance; and from the rule of law
to the fight against transnational crime.

Example: The pervasiveness of social media
touch with family and friends all over the world. It
lets us participate in or promote worthy causes
such as raising awareness about important issues.
However, numerous studies have discovered a
clear connection between using social media
excessively and a higher risk of depression, anxiety,
loneliness, self-harm, and even suicidal thoughts.
Negative experiences such as inadequacy about
your life or appearance may be promoted by social
media.
