first draft of globalization
1-Introduction
There is no shadow of doubt about fact that international integration has been a phenomenon of third millennium (Yoon, y, 2005). It has been a process of interaction and integration among people, companies, and governments in the world. For thousands of years people and corporations have tried to invest in other countries. In fact, the majority aspects of the current globalization are completely similar to those prevailing before the outbreak of the First World War in 1914. (globalization101 website).it is generally agreed that globalization from the beginning was fraught with conflict, competition, control and misuse. (Abraham,k, 2000) in addition, this has had remarkable effects on the environment, culture, political systems, and economic development or even on theological thinking and mission praxis in recent years. (Abraham,k, 2000).Its impact on those has been developed day by day and it knows no boundary. One of the most significant current discussions among people and governments is the influence of globalization on poor nations and rich nations. However, proponents of globalization believe that it allows poor countries to develop economically and raise their standards of living, whereas, opponents of globalization claim that political and economic changes have taken place only in one corner of world and they affect the people's life far away. For instance "a decision of the USA not to purchase raw rubber can unsettle the economy of Malaysia" (Mathews, G, 2000) .As be mentioned before globalization is deeply controversial. Thereby, it needs to be considered more and more. In this essay the positive effects and negative effects of globalization will be examined first, following this, its impact on polymer engineering and plastic product design which is my subject will be considered.
2-Advantages of globalization
The most remarkable advantages of globalization are increasing free trade between nations……….
3-Disadvantages of globalization

4-The positive effect on polymer engineering and plastic product design (technology)
Competition within the corporations has beneficially increased by globalization and all factories are trying to improve their technology in each industry sector..........
5-The negative effect on polymer engineering and plastic product design (technology)
Political matters have had straight effect on improving technology especially on the third world nations in the recent years..........

the reflection of 4 lectures
I read 4 lectures which have mentioned in our yellow book, i have tried to write my introduction from these lectures
Globalization has been the most controversial issue in commencement of third millennium. Although, it does not have got the same meaning by different realms and disciplines. Despite there is not a global agreement about the characterization of this term, it has revolutionized the whole face of economy and business in entire of the world. There are a number of arguments that claim globalization has opened various perspectives such as flourish in communications and markets, contact between cultures, spread investment, technology and modernity, and improve standards of productions.
However, It did not a long time to be revealed how shaken these claims are. Many people believe that in spite of nowadays propagandas “In Defense of Globalization”, as a result of deep alteration in technology, it is doing irreparable damage on humankind specifically working class’s quality of life which includes the most majority of our planet people’s population.
