...With the emerging of various electronic media and the rapid development of modern transportation, the world is shrinking into a global village. People have more and more chances to go outside and keep in touch with the outer world. However, in despite the huge convenience it brings to us, some problems emerge out unavoidably. A lot of skilled human resources are immigrating to abroad especially from developing countries to developed countries. This essay will elaborate brain drain in China as well as some solutions to alleviate the current situation. In recent years, the number of Chinese students overseas continues to be higher and higher. In 2012 the number of internal students is expected to reach 410 thousand. However, among these oversea students, only a few can return back due to the higher salary, better working conditions and training opportunities overseas. Brain drain now has become increasingly serious in China. Therefore, there is a need to reflect on the reasons behind the exodus and come up with some solutions. Firstly, Chinese government should offer bigger incentives for those who return from overseas. Due to the big attraction that foreign enterprise offers many students overseas do not want to come back. Chinese government can launch more projects and programs in which overseas students are able to enjoy favorable treatment in terms of salary, subsidy and especially housing. Apart from the attractive tratment in physical level, enterprise shouls also enhance...

...Globalization is a really widespread topic. There are millions of definitions, opinions, organisations and perspectives because it concerns the whole world. This essay is a try to give some information and to explain my views of the issue. The starting point of globalisation is not defined yet, but most scientists think it started in the 15th century when Christopher Columbus discovered the New World in 1442 where some think globalization began 8000 years ago, because at that time all the forces that would push globalization forward was already in place. The second one said that “Essentially, the basic motivations that propelled humans to connect with others - the urge to profit by trading, the drive to spread religious belief, the desire to exploit new lands, and the ambition to dominate other by armed might - all had been assembled by 6000 BCE to start the process we now call globalization.” The World Bank states that there have been three 'waves' of globalization. The first began in 1870 and ended at the beginning of World War I in 1914. It was characterized by a reduction in trade barriers and improvement in transportation technologies, which resulted in major migration of about 10% of the world's population. The next wave occurred from 1950 to 1980 during which multiple trade agreements occurred between developed nations which left out the developing world. The final (and current) wave of globalization (beginning 1980) in contrast has been characterized by the willingness...

...Capitalism and Economic Globalization In a perfect world there would be no hunger, no poverty, and no crime, but no such world will ever exist. There will always be suffering, hurt, anguish, and despair. Yet, shouldn’t we strive to provide a good future for all? This concept of the most amounts of good for the most amounts of people is call Utilitarianism. Contrary to popular belief, the United States doesn’t believe in such a state of being. Instead, through capitalism and economic globalization the United States has proven to believe in the exact opposite of utilitarianism. The United States has always been based on the principles of capitalism; however, the present economy is far from being the free enterprise system it was once envisioned as. The major change the United States made was directing the system away from competition. The result is a society dominated by mega corporations that control demand rather then respond to the demands of the marker. To break down the previous statement the corporations are so “in control of their products price that they can charge whatever they see fit”. The reason for this is lack of competition in a capitalistic society. Karl Marx a social theorist of the 1800’s believed that the basis of social order in every society is the production of economic goods. “The concepts of what is produced, how it’s produced, and how it’s exchanged determines the differences in people’s wealth, power, and social status”. Marx...
