Extra credit blog: China and globalization——ZHENG YAYUAN

  - Is globalization good for China?   For China Economic globalization is a manifestation of the progress of productivity and production relations, which is in line with the market law; capital is profit-seeking, and global investors must tend to place their capital in countries with advanced financial technology and high consumption capacity, because it means more profits, while countries with insufficient production factors can only use parts of their comparative advantages, such as labor and resources, and China's accession to the WTO is After decades of development, the economy entered a new situation when China gradually became an exporter of technology, and the role of China in globalization increased, so it is a mutually reinforcing relationship. The impact of globalization on China has been tremendous. China joined the WTO in 2001 and officially embarked on the path of globalization. By 2003 China's GDP had achieved double-digit growth, and this high growth continued ...

Reading Assignment 2: What is The Relation Between Culture and Globalization?——ZHENGYAYUAN정아원

Cultural Globalization - Tomlinson (1) Summary ‘Culture is not a power, something to which social events can be causally attributed’ says Clifford Geertz (1973: 14) and this is surelyright to the extent that we should think of cultural processes primarily as oriented towards the construction of socially shared meanings.

The need for ‘meaning’ is at the deep centre of the human condition, it is the cognitive-existential equivalent of the material needs for shelter and sustenance.

  I chose the topic on the importance of politeness, and I chose four completely different countries: Australia, China, France and South Korea. I compared them. From the data, among people under the age of 29, China has the highest proportion of politeness as an important quality of children, at 83.3%, followed by Australia at 80.8%, but it is not difficult to find from the table, In the four countries I have selected, the question of politeness as an important quality in children, the data shows that the four countries generally have high support rates, and a very small number of people do not mention this question or have no answer to this question. I think the reason for this is because in the last few years, the way of education in every country has changed, and as a young group under 29, educating children often starts with behavior. In China, children's behavior is also one of the most direct ways to reflect the educational achievements of parents.   Looking at these res...
