Video clip on Globalization and Conflict http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kniiNvoC0EY ; Identify the conflict. Is this an internal or external conflict? How/Why does globalization create conflict? In the speaker's opinion, globalization has flown in only one direction what does she mean by this? Although the speaker feels globalization has been one-sided, she notes there has been one benefit related to the process. What benefit dies she mention? The speaker says Muslims and westerners live by/are obligated to two different sources of truth. What two sources (two texts) does she mention?
The conflict is how everyone does not equally respect other cultures (external). Globalization creates conflict because different cultures have different opinions, people don't want people trying to change their beliefs so they stick up for themselves, then conflict starts. She means that Westerners are impacting others and forcing them to change and accept what they believe but others are not impacting the Westerners. The one benefit is how the US role models have helped females in other countries to stand up for themselves. She mentions the Constitution and the Qu'ran. She wants to stick to her beliefs but the US is also impacting her so its a hard line to draw between the two cultures.
