New page

I have started this page as this topic does not seem to be dealt with in any other place.--Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 17:26, 23 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Some great stats "WTO Trade Statistics Questioning the Benefits of Globalization". --Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 15:43, 27 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

FWIW, here I am, over 11 years later saying that ... this edit resulted in the removal of contents from this talk page and the removed contents being moved to Talk:Anti-globalization movement (via this edit), which is a separate article/subject. Unfortunately, I cannot just move the contents back here since the sections transferred over there have been responded to since, so their current contents would not represent what is currently in Criticisms of globalization (since they were responded to after they were moved to Talk:Anti-globalization movement). So, I'm noting that the talk page discussions have been fragmented, but at this point, moving them back to their original locations would cause discussion continuity issues.

Move discussion in progress

additional evaluations to article

Under the ^[1] heading, it only discusses the example of globalization in Africa, so it should include more examples of other countries negatively effected by the limitations of growth of globalization.

Under the ^[2] has a run on sentence in the second paragraph. Jcrobinsonberkeley (talk) 20:57, 18 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Anti-Western Bias

I'm not denying the negative effects of globalization in forcing western culture on other nations, however its not like globalization is great for western countries either; if anything they are just as hurt by it, just in different ways.

The article literally only discusses globalization in an anti-western lens and hence appears incomplete and very biased. 209.171.88.84 (talk) 03:04, 20 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah I'm agreed with, the subject should be rewritten in WP:NPOV with good WP:RS. The Supermind (talk) 19:09, 15 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Unwarranted assertions

The intro says "globalization is a set-in-stone "program" that is difficult to implement without political unrest." Where's the evidence for that? What is "a set-in-stone "program"" supposed to mean? It implies that something or someone or some group is running this "program", but where is the evidence for that? And it also implies that some entity or group is conspiring to deliberately plan this, but there is no evidence for this, unless you think this is the secret purpose of the Bilderberg Group for example. Similarly, "Globalization can be partly responsible for the current global economic crisis". What global economic crisis? The global standard of living is increasing, and inequality is decreasing. While some people in western economies may very understandably resent their jobs being moved to the third world, for the locals there it is a greater benefit. Better to have the choice between one not very good job and no job, or between one not very good job and an even worse job, than no choice. It is unreasonable to condemn people in the third world to short lives of poverty. 92.3.77.16 (talk) 10:44, 8 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Lacking sources, and language is not neutral

The introductory paragraph is just a mess overall. Almost nothing is sourced and the language is definitely biased. Dokterclaw (talk) 16:36, 21 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

This page is a mess

Not only is the lead terrible but the actual sections contain very little citations and border on conspiracies. Moonyprong01 (talk) 07:57, 16 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

It may be the nature of those doing the criticism. The Globalization page is in a better state.--Twilight Tinker (talk) 18:17, 9 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Very biased page

Clearly written by a disgruntled Muslim who is upset with the west. I am a strong critic of globalisation but this article is horrible. Should focus more on actual empirical consequences of globalisation rather than the authors anecdotes and opinions. 2001:8004:CC2:5211:703D:F0FE:138D:A8B7 (talk) 06:53, 24 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
