Abstract
globalization has been good to North Americans over the past few decades. As Fishlow and Parker argue, "Television sets, microwaves, automobiles, and computers have become less expensive and more reliable," a reality that speaks to the greater fact that our collective quality of life has risen. There are also many other perceived benefits to globalization or global market integration: job creation, wealth creation, innovation and much more. This idea that globalization is a positive economic force is one that is held by the majority of economists, as they believe when taken as a whole, it serves to create higher standards of living in the world. On the other hand though, there is a mounting insurgency, both in North America and around the world that is rejecting the benefits of globalization by saying that the negative social consequences far outweigh them. They see globalization as a process that should be stopped, or at least radically changed. They believe that globalization is driven on the greed of the few, and benefit those who are already affluent.
