What moral attitude should we take toward Globalism?

From the American workers view the positive side of Globalism is that many workers worldwide in very poor countries will experience a significant increase in their standard of living because the manufacturing of certain products that were manufactured in America are manufactured in their country.

From the American workers view the negative side of Globalism is that the standard of living of many Americans will decline significantly because of the work that has gone to poor countries.

From the American capital owning and financial brokerage view Globalism is the best thing since sliced bread.

What moral judgment should all Americans take toward Globalism? I have no answers to this very difficult question. This is the type of question that leads some people, like me, to duck their moral principles.

I suspect that Americans with capital will reap great advantage from Globalism but working Americans will be net losers. The workers and the capital owning citizens in poor countries will be large net winners.

What moral attitude should we take toward Globalism?

Which "we"? The ones who benefit, or the ones who are hurt by it?

Morality is a social construct, nothing more, nothing less. It's not a universal judgement.

When it comes to the foundations of the earth, there are many verses to draw. Many of these references state the foundations of the earth, but each adds a little to that simple fact. The foundations of old echoing the thought that laid the foundations of the earth in the beginning. The foundations of the earth, But this indicates that the foundations are themselves fastened upon something else. "Something else" tells us that the foundations are appointed. Indications that the ethics was founded, while that indicates that the foundations are unsearchable. Something tells us that it is strong; so strong that it should never be remove

[Why?]

Globalism is a two edged sword. It sends away American jobs, but also spreads American influence throughout the world. The loss of jobs can be remedied by innovation creating new jobs. The spread of American influence hopefully has an ameliorative affect on once hostile nations, which has the indirect effect of making working Americans' lives more peaceful and secure. Globalism appears to be a good thing.

What is globalism & globalization?

Joe Nye, former Dean of Harvard University’s Kennedy School of Government, informs us: Globalism describes the existence of various forms of networks that interconnect multi-continental distances while globalization describes the degree of globalism. In short, Nye considers “Globalism as the underlying basic network, while globalization refers to the dynamic shrinking of distance on a large scale”… globalization is the process by which globalism becomes increasingly thick and/or intense.

There are four distinct dimensions of globalism: economic, which is the flow of goods and services; environmental, which is the effect upon the worlds environment and health; social, which is the flow of ideas and the effect of those ideas and ideologies upon the worlds cultures; and of course, there is the military dimension where power is displayed world wise by all cultures with such power.
