Globalization Quotes - Page 12

• I'm trying to make a primitive painting. I'm trying to summon the archaic. I want to enter into a primitive situation. This is my protest against the sensory deprivation that we experience, which is due to this tendency towards globalization, towards homogenization, towards the generic - a technological standard rather than an aesthetic standard. I'm mining history, trying to regenerate a pictorial situation that is more humanistic. It's not about commodification, it's not about fitting into some sort of corporate structure. It's opposed to that direction.

• Al Gore’s not going to be rounding up Jews and exterminating them. It is the same tactic, however. You got to have an enemy to fight. And when you have an enemy to fight, then you can unite the entire world behind you, and you seize power. That was Hitler’s plan. His enemy: the Jew. Al Gore’s enemy, the U.N.’s enemy: global warming.

• La solución para que los niños crezcan en las distribuciones de renta está en crear mejores entornos infantiles para los niños que crecen, especialmente en familias de renta baja. Y eso significa cosas como las escuelas, la calidad de los barrios. Si pensamos en lo que está pasando en Baltimore, es un lugar de tremenda pobreza concentrada. La gente no ve realmente el camino a seguir y creo que revitalizar lugares así puede tener un enorme impacto, incluso frente a la globalización y los cambios tecnológicos.

• ¿Es el Islam una tribu o una fuerza de globalización? No cabe duda de que el islam se ha estudiado como un fenómeno local y tribal. Pero en teoría también es una idea universalista, su difusión se ha visto facilitada por las tecnologías modernas y es una identidad en la que la gente puede entrar y salir con bastante facilidad. No creo que el islam se haya entendido realmente como un producto de la globalización. Puede que sea uno de esos casos en los que globalismo y tribalismo acaban yendo de la mano.

• The greatest wealth of this nation is not only the mergers of giant corporations or the possibility of further globalization of the infrastructure of the world. In the United States, our greatest single source of wealth is the minds and talent of our young people. Not to use it is stupid - to waste it is a crime.

• En cuanto a la pregunta del judío-estadounidense, lo curioso es que yo crecí en la India, y la comparación judío-estadounidense es mejor para los asiáticos de segunda generación. Estoy seguro de que hay algo en la globalización que ha globalizado nuestras neurosis, de modo que yo, que crecí en la India, de alguna manera resulté muy parecido a ti. Es raro, si lo piensas, pero ahora todo el mundo está expuesto a la corriente dominante del mundo blanco estadounidense, estés donde estés. Y existe la necesidad de pertenecer a ese mundo blanco o de estar a su altura, lo que lleva a todo tipo de tensiones.

• I don't think we replaced the Soviet Union with Al Qaida. I think we replaced, we should have, Soviet Union with the merger of globalization and the IT revolution. I think it's that. That is the real challenge that we face today. Unlike the Soviet Union, it has no face, it has no missiles, but it is something that challenges every job, every city and every community.

• Las obras maestras del arte poseen un inmenso potencial para promover una visión del mundo que podría ayudar a mitigar los terrores sociales que plantea la globalización, el trastorno socioeconómico más profundo desde la Revolución Industrial, que ha desencadenado una pandemia de nacionalismo retrógrado, separatismo regional y extremismo religioso.

• It must be acknowledged that an increasing proportion of the world's population is living in cities, in almost completely human-made environments. But we should also acknowledge that there are still a considerable number of people who wish to live in harmony with nature, and that globalization has made their ways of life increasing difficult to sustain.

• Our economy has not served large fractions of our population. Trump grasped that. And rather than saying, "What have we not done right?" he said, "It's those foreigners. Let's build a wall." He says globalization is unfair to the United States.

• Since trade ignores national boundaries and the manufacturer insists on having the world as a market, the flag of his nation must follow him, and the doors of the nations which are closed against him must be battered down. Concessions obtained by financiers must be safeguarded by ministers of state, even if the sovereignty of unwilling nations be outraged in the process. Colonies must be obtained or planted, in order that no useful corner of the world may be overlooked or left unused.

• El fracaso de los sindicatos a la hora de apoyar los esfuerzos para aumentar la participación y la propiedad de los empleados coincidió con su falta de voluntad para pronunciarse sobre cuestiones más amplias de eficacia y rendimiento empresarial. Cuando los competidores extranjeros amenazaron la supervivencia de los fabricantes estadounidenses, los sindicatos optaron por expresar las demandas tradicionales de los empleados de salarios más altos, mejores prestaciones y más seguridad. Lo que no consiguieron fue dar respuestas eficaces al reto de la globalización.

• It is worthwhile to engage in something that is close to one's heart. I had a scholarship. So if I donate money to give brilliant Chinese students an opportunity to study abroad, then this embodies everything I believe in: education, globalization, social mobility. I am an example of social mobility.

• Many people have written about the economic meaning of globalization; in One World Peter Singer explains its moral meaning. His position is carefully developed, his tone is moderate, but his conclusions are radical and profound. No political theorist or moral philosopher, no public official or political activist, can afford to ignore his arguments.

• We talk of globalization, and how much money is needed for the education of children in the world, their liberation and rehabilitation just $9 billion which is four days of military expense. Just four days. Nine billion dollars is nothing. But what Americans spent on ice cream just 20 percent of this. One fifth of what you spend on ice creams could bring the children out of the clutches of their masters and put them to school.

• I think of what's happening in Detroit as part of something that's much bigger. Most people think of the decline of the city as having to do with African-Americans and being in debt, and all the issues like crime and bad housing. But what happened is that when globalization took place, following World War II, Detroit's role as the center and the symbol of industrialization was destroyed. It wasn't because we had black citizens mainly or a black mayor; it was because the world was changing.

• La idea de la organización de protestas, resumida por el organizador comunitario Saul Alinsky, es que si presionamos lo suficiente al gobierno, éste hará cosas para ayudar a la gente. No nos damos cuenta de que ese tipo de organización sólo funcionaba cuando el gobierno era muy fuerte, cuando Occidente dominaba el mundo, relativamente hablando. Pero con la globalización y el debilitamiento del Estado-nación, ese tipo de organización no funciona.
