The World Without Globalization, Can You Imagine That?!

Nowadays the world is connected. We can turn on the computer and surf in the internet to see images, news, texts, and learn about the culture and the news of every country in the world. You can even talk with people of other countries, you can make reunions using a webcam with people from your job that are all around the world, you can buy products from many different countries then yours in the internet.

Something that just happened can be on tv like five minutes after it happened, you can "know" other countries in your room and many other stuff. But the globalization is not only good for us, the population, but it's also very good for marketing and business. And I sincerelly just can't imagine how would be our world whitout globalization. With globalization, we have more communication and more information available all the time for us. And not only that. We have fun to. There are music, movies, books, tv shows, food, games. Nowadays if we stop and look at our life we will se that many of the stuff that we like to do, that we like to play, to eat, read or see are from other countries.

However, when you see that many of the things that you have, that you read, see, listen, eat and watch are from other countries, you can also see that in the middle of all these benefits, the globalization can also have a negative point. The compannies have the habit to import so many things from other countries - mainly USA - that this disable the opportunitie of our own country to have some progress not only on economy but in literature, music, cinema. If you stop and look, you'll see, in a book store, for example, that there are much more books of american writers than of brazilian writers. Many people, mainly the teenagers, hear more american music than brazilian. The amount of american movies that are released don't even compare to the small quantity of brazilian movies that are released. Of course that there's a reason for it to happen, that the USA have more money to make better movies, to invest more on literature, cinema, music and other stuff, but if their products continue to be the more consumed, when it will stop and other countries will have the opportunnity to grow? It is good to have an access to other cultures, but this can turn into a bad thing when other cultures, arts and other products that aren't brazilian are the most usual in our country and in our life, making impossible for our own country to grow.
