Historical Globalization Analysis

To what extent should contemporary society respond to the legacies of historical globalization?
To the extent of saying sorry and get over it, it’s in the past: what is done and we can’t take it back. Do people today really have to respond because of the wrongs our ancestors did? Well yea, but not to the extent of handing out money, our hard earn cash. And to the extent of what does history teaches us and the lessons learned with complete objectivity? Yes I understand that the apologies is not being said until now, it’s kind of pathetic... What I’m trying to say here is that we as people learned from our mistakes and we learn a lesson of what to do and making sure that it doesn’t happen again, and plus there is no more land to take over.
The idea of learning from the past so that mistakes are not repeated. But it should be remembered that each situation is different, no matter what it is. I’m not quite sure how to answer this but when we discuss these topics we think different then what is in the book but it won’t change the past. Yes we are like why did they do this, why didn’t they do it this way; I guess they thought that the way they are doing things are the only thing to go by. And it’s not; I guess we finally realize that it was wrong and never doing it
I’m not quite sure how to answer this one. Maybe we didn’t realize what we were doing was wrong or was it because of pride and power that these people had... I don’t know. Here is one person’s opinion of why we haven’t apologized before now: “The context is the insufficiency of justice seeking in the world, and the unhealthy, sometimes long-smouldering residue left behind by generations that have ignored great wrongs or failed to address them properly. Because of this insufficiency, the passage of time, and the inaccessibility of more conventional means for righting these wrongs, societies may need to find unconventional solutions in a continuing quest for justice.”
