Abstract

« globalisation » is a word that comes up much more often than others in debate topics. For some, nothing better than globalization (and the liberalizing process that comes with it) could happen to us. On the other side, globalisation's detractors hold it responsible for a great number of the planet's problems such as poverty or underdevelopment and they also believe it will lead us to a disaster if we continue that way.

First of all, we must shortly define what is meant with globalisation : it is the process of creating one world where everything is interconnected, where one country better be in contact with the rest of the world in order to achieve good living conditions. That is attained through different kinds of globalisation: news, ideas, culture, transports and the goods and tertiary markets; all these sectors have undergone a globalisation process. It implies, that at the end stage of this process, there will be no rivalry anymore, that everyone will work hand in hand with his « neighbours » and that we will have attained a stage of global peace and prosperity. And already, « all » the states work together in world organisations such as the World Trade Organisation (WTO), the World Bank or the International Monetary Fund (IMF).
