Globalization

[Wash Me]

can someone lpease explain to me the difference between the capitalist globalization and 'corporate globalization'

[Kez]

they refer to the same phenomenon, but rather one refers to the movement as a whole, the latter to a particular globalisation

[seen_che]

The difference between the capitalist globalization and 'corporate globalization' Is CAPG= One persons "firm" etc, grows BUT CORG is when share owners grow

SO: capitalist globalization is good for less peaple then 'corporate globalization' is.

[bunk]

different words, same meanings.

I believe that both terms mean the same thing, but the difference is in who uses each term.

The social reformer, that doesn't see capitalism as a whole as the root cause of problems globalisation causes... will call it "corperate globalisation"... They may not be against free trade or capitalism all together, or at all really...

These can be liberals who are concerned about what liberalization of free trade laws has done, and the causation of the "race to the bottom effect."

Or also can be nationalistic right wingers who generally are pro-capitalist, yet want "American corperations" to produce soley American products, and create American jobs. (or British, French, German, etc...)

... while the radical who sees corperate exploition as a product of capitalism will tend to call it capitalist globalisation.

Both are fairly similar in meaning, but only differ in who uses it.

Both are pretty much interchangable however as capitalism is globalizing through corperate globalization, so in truth it really doesn't matter which term you use, as it's only semantics.
