Essay / A superficial core - 1208
“In the 21st century, the link between religious fundamentalism, nuclear nationalism and the impoverishment of entire populations due to corporate globalization becomes impossible to ignore. » - Arundhati RoyThomas PM Barnett's theory divides the world into two parts, the "Core" and the "Gap". Whether a country finds itself in the Core or the Gap depends on its ability to integrate into globalization. He advocates that the threat to U.S. security will come from the Gap and campaigns to "close the gap" through globalization and military means. Barnett argues that globalization is the key to the core and the main promoter of world peace. Rather, I will argue that globalization has integrated countries into a superficial core that will eventually wither, leading to conflict endangering global peace and stability. Superficial relations between countries based on globalization will be short-lived and will eventually escalate into an unprecedented clash that threatens cultures, languages and environments. Jamal R. Nassar describes globalization and terrorism as linked developments. He defines the nightmare of terrorism as the product of the globalized dream of a more equitable world and emphasizes: “The clash between the two should be transformed into a dialogue between the rich and the poor. Without hope for these poor and oppressed people, the violence is likely to continue. » The September 11 attacks are an ideal case to show the dangerous link between globalization and terrorism. Najibullah Lafaraie believes that the formation of Al-Qaeda itself can be considered a manifestation of globalization to the extent that its creation was directly or indirectly facilitated by globalization. Globalization has also played a central role in globalization, the dark side and vulnerabilities of this idea cannot be ignored. The glue of globalization that binds countries together in a loose band may not stand the “test of time” and wither over time, with disastrous consequences. The dangers and risks of globalization must also be factored into the overall matrix of global security.
