Globalism
Encounters: The Origins of Globalism The first section of “The Global Citizen” gives us a basic premise on which to proceed with developing the ideal of what it means to adopt the idea of being a global citizen. How can one citizen be global? How can we be a “citizen” of the world? A way to begin to recognize the answers these questions we must first realize that global citizenship starts with the individuals need for realizing there should be change in the world. Donald Will states in his article, “Get Global…Or Get Left Behind” that “it is in our own personal interest that we pay attention to international affairs”. He brings up examples of economic, social, political and environmental problems in the world that have effects on everyday people. He further concludes that the only way to initiate change of such problems if for people to develop a genuine care of worldly matters that either directly or indirectly affect them. One of the ways to develop this care is to develop a moral respect for other cultures and ways of life. And in order to create this moral respect is to put down our differences in an effort to embrace a global community.
