70, 76, 77

 70. In chapter 70, the author discusses his opposition to corporate, neoliberal globalization. He also emphasises the importance of transnational social movements. In today’s world, social movements are connected globally. Labour movements, women's movements, and environmental movements are now united from far away places through a common struggle. This chapter argues that globalization is not solely about domination and economic control. Globalization can be harnessed to promote social causes and sustainability.

76. In chapter 76, the author examines the tension between “globalists” and “nationalists” in western democracies. The author ties the recent rise in right wing populism to increasing economic inequality and immigration. He also argues that the conflict between nationalists and globalists reflects deeper moral tensions or differences. While globalists prioritize prosperity and openness, nationalists prioritize loyalty and shared identity. The author asserts that these are not just ideals based in economics or racism, but a psychological need to find security and belonging. He believes this is what is causing the rise of right wing populism. The author thinks to address global conflicts we need to understand the moral motivations behind nationalism and not dismiss them.

77. The author of this chapter argued that the extremism that exists globally today is not a product of religion, but actually a response to the pressures felt by people subject to neoliberal globalization. He argues that the rapid change has intensified economic and social inequalities, and has alienated people from their labour. This has laid the foundation for extremist movements world wide. I agree with this author that the rise in terroristic attacks and radicalization of people generally is, in large part, due to the economic strain people feel from globalized free markets.
