It doesn't matter who you are or what you do for a living; it doesn't matter where you live or where you come from; in any case you have come into contact with globalization. We are all active members of this network and we are the fuel it needs to function perfectly. This network needs employers and employees, it needs people in need and willing to help, and it needs members from different cultures and societies. He needs you. Whether by flying on a plane, traveling to a foreign country, or simply purchasing medicine, you are contributing to the unstoppable giant known as globalization. To understand globalization it is necessary to understand its fundamental meaning. Globalization is a process. It is a process of international integration resulting from the exchange of cultural aspects, which may include ideas and products. This may be for better or worse, though, as author Anthony Kugler suggests, “Globalization means above all that a single event – ​​be it the outbreak of a new disease or a new medical discovery – now has the potential to affect everyone in the whole world almost immediately." The ultimate goal that globalization hopes to achieve is to create a world without borders (West). Achieving this goal will put both rich countries and LEDCs (least economically developed countries) on common ground, which will allow various positive interactions to develop. This controversial issue has two sides. Some argue that globalization can damage traditions, cultures and even countries; while others think that the benefits it has brought and will continue to bring balance the negative outcomes. While it is true that this is a rather old concept, it is certain... middle of paper... and people work together for a common good. Even though it is so public nowadays, it is very easy to misjudge or interpret it without fully understanding it. It is crucial to understand that, in the right hands, globalization is a tool for cultural acceptance, peace and common well-being. When was the last time you were able to donate money to fund AIDS research in another country, or the last time you invested in a small foreign business that grew into something more than an empire? We have evolved from inhabiting a global world, with distant peoples and cultures, to inhabiting a smaller, interconnected community that thanks to globalization has become a Global Village, as Marshall McLuhan calls it. Now in our world everything happens in real time, like in a small village, where information and people can be reached remotely..
