Life at the I-House

This week in Global Hour we will take a look at globalization. Do you know what you mean when you use the word and do you know what others mean? Globalization has become a buzzword that needs to be explored.

Some points and questions to Ponder:

1. Globalization is used to explain everything from hunger to cultural decay to global warming.

2. Globalization is used to explain everything from increased trade to longer life spans to a growing global awareness.

3. When you think of globalization what assumptions are you making . . . Regarding politics? Regarding economics? Regarding culture? Regarding whether it is fundamentally good or bad?

4. What questions should we be asking when someone uses the term globalization?

Global Hour is a weekly program of informal discussion that covers a wide range of topics. It is committed to facilitating the exchange of views and perspectives within a relaxed setting, while engaging important issues that highlight global and human conditions.

Everyone is invited to attend!
