Think about the causes of success and failure for particular movements. What causes some to become widely appealing and have major impacts on change? What causes others (regardless of the validity of their concerns) to simply wither away in the dustbin of history? Can you think of some that have evolved into stable organizations without much impact on social change? Can you identify others that have become stable enterprises of sorts, constantly selling T-shirts and other emblems without doing much?…

In his article, “Let’s Admit It: Globalization Has Losers,” published in the New York Times in October 2011, writer Steven Rattner mentions one of the main issues that has affected the world in the last decades, globalization. However, he discusses a completely new perspective that most of the people ignore in their daily basis. After the global financial crisis in 2009, some economic specialists have been more involved to adjust the economy back to its normality. Under those circumstances, Rattner mostly addresses the relation between the decline of jobs in the United States, and the settlement of industries in other countries where the work force is cheaper. Steven Rattner correctly explains the effects of globalization by talking about…
Through the Internet, a movement began to develop in opposition to the doctrines of neoliberalism which were widely manifested in the 1990s when the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) proposed liberalisation of cross-border investment and trade restrictions through its Multilateral Agreement on Investment (MAI). This treaty was prematurely exposed to public scrutiny and subsequently abandoned in November 1998 in the face of strenuous protest and criticism by national and international civil society representatives.…

The twentieth century saw an upsurge in a new form of protest movement, the anti-globalisation/anti-capitalist social movement, which is a branch out of what was known as the New Social Movement. The new social movements were a plethora of informal groups, organisations and campaigns that surfaced in the 1960s. These included movements that campaigned for racial equality, sexual equality, gay rights, environmental concerns, peace groups, prisoners rights, human rights, among others. Because of this history, contemporary groups have been dubbed ‘Even Newer Social Movements’ (Crossley, N. (2003) ‘Even Newer Social Movements? Anti-Corporate Protests, Capitalist Crises and the Remoralization of Society’, Organization, 10(2), pp. 287-305).…
Lastly, movements can be seen in terms of environment. People are now beginning to expose the notion of and inherit value to natural resources, such as trees. Another is animal protection against cruelty, people that support things like this have already made a humongous impact on the public.

We all, who have access to global sources of information (such as internet, television, books and other media) already, know about the globalization in particular depth. Many of us will say the globalization is developing in capitalist fashion, and they won’t be wrong about it, since we are witnessing a process called outsourcing and international organizations expand faster each day. There are different views trying to predict where this process is going. Some will distinct that it is the ideology promoted by international corporate interests that values only the efficiency and profitability of the production. The capital refers only to time and money, thus steps are taken to best utilize the time to generate highest turnover capital. Multinationals, in order to provide its shareholders with maximum wealth often change their location of production to countries with cheaper labour and low level of governmental scrutiny. As a result these particular countries are prevented from sustainable and predictable (for investors) development. Some opponents will state that this is a link of bringing the imperialism and slavery back, or it is just a modern form of these two systems. Others will derive from the “Communist Manifesto” by Karl Marx and Engels that this is the last step of transition to fully communist society and it is yet for the changes to be. Proponents will argue that the main feature of the capitalist globalization is that most of the capital and jobs that are flowing from richer to poorer countries, therefore increasing the quality of life in these regions.…

The ideal organization of the 21st century is one that understands cultural and perceptual diversities and how these differences affect behavior. It is a company that knows how to motivate employees and increase productivity through excellent job design, rewards, frequent feedback, and empowerment.
