1 The global in the social sciences and humanities
2 Key Points Understanding global issues requires an understanding of both the physical and life sciences and the social sciences and humanities The importance of agency and agents at the individual, group/state, and global level The importance of the spirit of the times
3 What does global mean? The planet earth is a single unit or space Global issues transcend humanity and human society Human activity is having global effects: global issues are affecting human activity
4 What does global mean? Global Warming Global Health The Global Goals for Sustainable Development The Global 100 The Global Drug Trade The Global Fund Global Refugee Sponsorship Initiative Global Citizenship
5 Where does global come from? What is the history of the global?
6 The History of the Global Migration of Homo Sapiens 50,000 years ago: proto-globalization Spread of the world religions Spread of ideas Spread of trade
7 The History of the Global 1492 German geographer Martin Behaim builds the first globe first circumnavigation of the earth 1851 first world s fair 1865 creation of first global regulatory agency (International Telegraph Union) 1866 first permanent transoceanic telegraph cable 1884 first global co-ordination of clocks (GMT) 1930 first global radio broadcast (King George V opens the London Naval Conference)
8 The History of the Global 1940 first MacDonald s restaurant 1944 The word globalize appears in Mirriam Webster Dictionary 1957 first intercontinental ballistic missiles 1962 launch of first communications satellite 1963 first direct dialing of transborder telephone calls 1968 Earthrise photograph (Apollo 8 in moon orbit)
9 The History of the Global 1971 first electronic stock exchange opens (US NASDAQ) 1972 first global ecological conference (UN Conference on the Human Environment) 1976 launch of first direct broadcast satellite 1977 first commercial use of fiber optic cables 1987 appearance of Antarctica ozone layer hole 1991 introduction of world wide web 2000 the world possessed 850 million telephone connection points, 1.1 billion television receivers, 60,000 transborder corporations, 16,500 transborder citizens organizations
10 Where does global come from? What is the history of the global? From the global to globalization
11 The Global and Globalization [Globalization is] the process of increasing interconnectedness between societies such that events in one part of the world more and more have effects on peoples and societies far away. (John Baylis and Steve Smith, political scientists) Globalization refers to all those processes by which the peoples of the world are incorporated into a single world society, global society. (Martin Albrow, sociologist) The world is becoming a global shopping mall in which ideas and products are available everywhere at the same time. (Rosabeth Moss Kanter, Harvard Business School)
12 The Global and Globalization We should keep going along the path of globalization. Globalization is good when trade stops, war comes. (Jack Ma, businessman) When globalization means, as it so often does, that the rich and powerful now have new means to further enrich and empower themselves at the cost of the poorer and weaker, we have a responsibility to protest in the name of universal freedom. (Nelson Mandela, former President of South Africa) We are in a world where globalization, which is an ideology, has forgotten and put aside the people, the people s interests, aspirations, and dreams. (Marine Le Pen, French politician)
13 Where does global come from? What is the history of the global? From the global to globalization Agency and causation in a global world
14 The levels of analysis: explaining agency in human affairs 1. Individual 2. State or Group 3. International System
15 1. The individual level of analysis Decision Making Motives Perception Cognition Learning Personality Ethics Lived Experience
16 2. The state/group level of analysis Governance Culture Belief systems Rules Identity Leadership Cohesion
17
18
19
20 3. The system level of analysis Actors (states, etc.) Power Distribution Conflict Cooperation Order/Governance
21 The levels of analysis: explaining agency in human affairs 1. Individual 2. State or Group 3. International System
22 Adding a global level of analysis?
23 A global level of analysis? Human Society Non Human Life Eco/Bio sphere Genes and Genomes Physical World Solar System
24 And so Global phenomena can be explained in different ways Global events will have an impact in different ways Actions or events at one level will have an impact on other levels

26 Top Five Doomsday Scenarios of Our Time according to ASIC 200 (2009) Obesity Food shortage Climate change WWIII Nuclear War Disease Biological warfare Sun goes out Robots Asteroids Alien invasion

29 Society and Prediction: Zeitgeist and Doomsday Today Social collapse due to environmental pressures (Collapse by Jared Diamond) Infectious Disease (movies like Outbreak) Particle experiment (Our Final Hour by Martin Rees) Nano-robots (Michael Crichton thriller Prey) Rogue planets ( Planet X or Nibiru ) or black holes Shifting magnetic poles (The movie The Core) Super volcanoes: huge long term volcanic eruptions that coincide with large extinctions (Volcano) Climate Change (the movie The Day After Tomorrow) Killer Asteroids (Deep Impact and Armageddon) Zombies (The Walking Dead, izombie, Z Nation)

35 Society and Prediction: Zeitgeist Human Genome Society Discourse
36 Society and Prediction: Zeitgeist and Doomsday Today I do not think the human race will survive the next thousand years unless we spread into space. Stephen Hawking
37 Society and Prediction: Zeitgeist and Doomsday Today "Remember to look up at the stars and not down at your feet. Try to make sense of what you see, wonder about what makes the universe exist. Be curious. However difficult life may seem, there is always something you can do and succeed at. It matters that you don't just give up." Stephen Hawking
