Essay Assignment #3 – Synthesis and Research
Length: five-to-seven pages (essay must be over five full pages before Works Cited page)
Globalization is considered a set of complex processes by which goods, services, capital, ideas, and culture are exchanged on the international level. This means that globalization is not just an economic phenomenon, but also political, technological, cultural, and social in its scope, as Anthony Giddens claims in his essay “Globalization” (17).
Many writers acknowledge both the positive and negative effects of globalization. Supporters, such as Giddens, Fareed Zakaria, and Al Gore argue that globalization benefits the world through the promotion of such ideals as human rights, democracy, and freedom and that it enhances the prosperity of the world through free trade, free investment, better technology, and protection of the environment.
On the other hand, critics argue that we need to control the “runaway” global process because it creates homogeneity among world cultures (Brendon O’Connor), violates local norms of propriety (Martha Bayles), widens economic inequality (Giddens), and damages the environment (Jared Diamond).
Is globalization positive or negative? For example, does the coming together of countries to share environmental resources and techniques have positive or negative effects on the world?
Formulate a clear and focused thesis, and provide a detailed account of your evidence. The minimum of three specific topics must be different from the ones you chose for Essay #1 and Essay #2, and one topic must be the environment. Use MLA format to cite 2-3 quotes and 2-3 country examples per body paragraph from at least SEVEN TOTAL ACADEMIC SOURCES, including Giddens, Gore, and Diamond and four outside sources (two outside sources may be news, but the other two must be academic journals or books; all outside sources must be different from previously used outside sources).
As this assignment requires synthesizing different source materials, it is vital to make clear connections among source materials and between your own ideas and those presented in sources. Without demonstrating synthesis in every body paragraph, your essay will not be qualified to pass.
