Chap 9- Jeffrey Hart “Review of Globalization in Question, by Hirst, Thompson and Bromley”

Quote:
“Most of the people of the Third World have not yet benefited from internalization, but that they must do so in the future, even if this means greater market intervention on the part of the world’s agreement”

Meaning/Chosen:
Attention to international dimension of higher education is increasingly visible as national and institutional agendas rise to the challenge of globalization and its opportunities, yet in the current globally interdependent, knowledge based societies, the concept of internalization of higher education has itself globalized.
As countries in the developing world open up to internalization and enter into partnerships with western institutions their reflections on practice and outcomes offer significant learning opportunities for those with longer histories

Summer 2019 POL 241 Chap 4- Diplomacy and Domestic Politics: The Logic of Two-Level Games @ Robert D. Putnam

Elayne Guzman Summer 2019 POL 241 Chap 4 Diplomacy and Domestic Politics: The Logic of Two-Level Games @ Robert D. Putnam Quote: “The politics of many international negotiations can usefully be conceived by a two level game. At the national level, domestic groups pursue their interests by pressuring the government to adopt favorable policies, and politicians seek power by constructing coalitions among those groups. At the international level, national governments seek to maximize their own ability to satisfy domestic pressures, while minimizing the adverse consequences of foreign developments. Neither of the two games can be ignored by central decision-makers, so long as their countries remain interdependent, yet sovereign.”   Meaning/Chosen:     Putnam wants to model how domestic politics affects international relations, thus leaving purely statistic/realist perspectives. He assumes that international decision makers are concerned both with domestic...

T.H. Marshall, “Citizenship and Social Rights”; Michael Mann, “Ruling Class Strategies and Citizenship”; Charles Tilly “Where Do Rights Come From?

Elayne Guzman                                   Citizenship and Social Class by T.H. Marshall Quote: “ All who possess the status are equal with respects to the rights and duties with which the status is endowed” Meaning: It means that for Marshall a concept of citizenship bears a certain relevance to present day society. For Marshall as women are recognized in society as much more important and vital citizens, their status and therefore their rights increase; proven to be an excellent way in which citizenship is viewed.

The Moral Dilemma of US Immigration Policy: Open Borders Versus Social Justice? By Stephen Macedo

  The Moral Dilemma of US Immigration Policy: Open Borders Versus Social Justice? By Stephen Macedo. Quote: “Most people seems to accept that wealthy societies owe the first sort of concern to human beings generally, via humanitarian assistance, whether societies should pool their efforts and seek to lift poorer countries at least up to a level of basic decency; exactly what level is adequate or morally required is an important question” Meaning/Chosen: Humanitarian assistance to poor countries should be provided in an effort to ease suffering and provide a basic level of decency, especially when those countries have been exploited by richer countries. It’s true that American society should properly take care of their own less-well off, and then allow for distributive justice abroad. By doing this, immigration to US will decrease and people would not risk their lives leaving their countries, in an illegal and dangerous way, for a better life in US.
