| Indhold: |
Globalization often is represented as a unique and irresistible process, as a hallmark of our time that singles it out from all other periods.
However, research of the so-called la belle époque i.e. the decades from around 1850 to 1913 indicates that it makes sense to identify a number of trends from this period as similar to those that are said to constitute the present globalization, meaning that they can be sees as the constituencies of a ‘First Globalization.
The following decades, the 1930s and 1940s, in particular, were characterized by de-globalization, and it is not until around 1980 that it makes sense again to apply the concept of globalization to understand the processes that to-day inter-connect a wide scope of countries and regions of the globe.
In this way, globalization is understood as a specific occurrence in history that has a beginning and an end, and which can be divided into a first and a second globalization.
This understanding of globalization emphasizes the importance of convergence, i.e. of a reduction of the dispersion of prices on land, estate and labour worldwide. It focuses on migration, international transfers of capital and trade. However, divergence is also seen a result of globalization, i.e. increasing gaps in terms of living standards and economic performance.
We will discuss the interaction between world market and political and social developments, focusing in particular on
1) la belle époque
2) The Great Depression of the 1930s
3) De-regulation and liberalization of trade and capital transfers since the 1980s and the spread of information technology and their bearing on the understanding of the present globalization
4) Understandings of globalization that emphasizes its role as catalyst of un-equality and de-legitimation of social groups
Course objectives (beside the objectives stipulated in the curriculum):
• to familiarize you with the main trends of these discussions
• to enable you to analyse and understand the terms and factors that are central to the discussions of globalization
• to enable you to get to grip with the central concepts that are used by the actors themselves and in the analyses of globalization
• to enable you to understand, discuss and give a critique of the relevant research and opinion that pertain to globalization |
