Resumo

From a social point of view globalization is a natural, inevitable, continuing process of mutual discovery. However, exposing less developed economies to unrestricted competition of globalization will necessarily lead to failure of local development processes. The developed world must tap resources, natural and financial, from all over the world, in order to maintain its own growth rate. Global liberalism will tend to increase the numbers of the socially excluded, both in developed and underdeveloped countries. Lack of ethics in the so-called developed world contributes to the progressive dehumanization of our societies, making us insensible to the misery resulting from globalization. Globalization itself makes it impossible for any individual country to reestablish systems capable of promoting the common good. Only a global change of attitude might be able to transform a market economy into an economy dedicated to the preservation of dignity and to the protection of the weak. It is a process that would require a crucial role of the State.
