Globalization Quotes - Page 8

• ...A medida que crece la disparidad entre ricos y pobres, se intensifica la lucha por acaparar los recursos. Para imponer sus "acuerdos de cariño", para corporativizar los cultivos que cultivamos, el agua que bebemos, el aire que respiramos y los sueños que soñamos, la globalización corporativa necesita una confederación internacional de gobiernos leales, corruptos y autoritarios en los países más pobres para imponer reformas impopulares y sofocar los motines. La globalización corporativa -o deberíamos llamarla por su nombre, imperialismo- necesita una prensa que pretenda ser libre. Necesita tribunales que pretendan impartir justicia.

• Los economistas han proporcionado a los capitalistas un concepto reconfortante llamado "libre mercado". No describe ninguna parte de la realidad, en ningún lugar ni momento. Es un mantra convenientemente invocado cuando se propone que el gobierno haga algo que a los fieles no les gusta, e igual de convenientemente ignorado siempre que quieren que el gobierno haga algo por ellos.

• There are dangers that globalization increases inequality. There are dangers that because capital is mobile and workers are not, if we are not providing them sufficient protection, that they can be left behind in this process. And that's what we have to focus on.

• La mayoría de las veces, el concepto de globalización acaba sonando innecesariamente abstruso; incluso el propio nombre suena tosco y rimbombante. Y la gente lo discute de un modo que lo hace parecer impersonal. Pero la globalización es realmente un hecho concreto y fundamental en la vida de todos, y eso se ve en los estadios de fútbol.

• Angela Merkel embodies Germany's 20th century fate. It is not up to me to pass judgment on her place in history, but I believe that she is the chancellor of Germany's reconciliation with Europe. She stands for a Germany for whom globalization has been a success and which accepts its role in foreign and defense policy. I thought the way she dealt with the refugees was courageous. I think she is the chancellor of reconciliation.

• Nunca antes la información había sido tan importante, tanto para los gobiernos como para las empresas. Y, por favor, no se imaginen que algunos de los aquí reunidos hoy puedan estar menos preocupados que otros. La globalización significa que el "efecto mariposa" actúa en todas partes. Los errores de un corredor de bolsa en Singapur o el desplome del baht en Bangkok, las decisiones de una empresa industrial finlandesa o lo que decida hacer el Gobernador de Minas Gerais en Brasil con la deuda de su Estado, tienen consecuencias para el mundo entero.

• La base central del poder político mundial está aquí mismo, en Estados Unidos, y es nuestro corrupto establishment político el mayor poder detrás de los esfuerzos de globalización radical y de privación de derechos de los trabajadores. Sus recursos financieros son prácticamente ilimitados, sus recursos políticos son ilimitados, sus recursos mediáticos son incomparables, y lo más importante, la profundidad de su inmoralidad es absolutamente ilimitada. Permitirán que miles de terroristas islámicos radicales entren en nuestro país.

• Si el objetivo es la globalización sin marginación, no podemos seguir tolerando un mundo en el que convivan los inmensamente ricos y los miserablemente pobres, los desposeídos privados incluso de lo esencial y personas que desperdician sin miramientos lo que otros necesitan tan desesperadamente. Estos países son una afrenta a la dignidad de la persona humana. La ética exige que los sistemas se adapten a las necesidades del hombre, y no que el hombre sea sacrificado en aras del sistema.

• I never expected the movement against globalization and corporate rule to mushroom as quickly as it has, either. And right now the strongest electoral arm of that movement is the Green Party. I try to stress to people cynical about voting that the Greens are the most effective electoral arm of the so-called Spirit of Seattle, and it's great fun to cause trouble in the streets, but that's not going to accomplish much without insurrection in the voting booth at the same time.

• I feel that we're dividing along class lines for the first time in our history. Now one thing that has happened in this reaction to globalization is that the elites are not respectful of the values of those who are ordinary citizens, so we seem to be dividing ourselves into ever-smaller identity groups, each with its own narrative, each with its own grievance, and that's a problem.

• The single most significant change has been the globalization of labor markets. Product markets - trade in goods - have been globalizing for years. But now, with the reduction in communication expenses and the building of all sorts of IT infrastructure, essentially any job can be done almost anywhere.

• I think the whole progress over the last two or three millennia has been entirely dependent on ideas and techniques and commodities and people moving from one part of the world to another. It seems difficult to take an anti-globalization view if one takes globalization properly in its full sense.
