Is today’s idea of globalization similar to, or different from, previous waves of globalization? Discuss a historical example, along with its contemporary counterpart, to explain why you think so. With that in mind, why do you think globalization is a polarizing idea? Where does your example fit in on the political spectrum – is it regional specific, universal – consider its 2nd and 3rd order effects.

Grossman and Krueger(1991/1994)
Grossman and Krueger have studied the relationship between per capita income (PPP in $ 1985) and water and air pollution. Their studies are based on statistical data provided by GEMS (Global Environmental Monitoring System) and WHO (World Health Organization). The observations made by the authors concern air pollution, and cover 42 countries over the period from 1977 to 1988, and also water pollution, and cover 58 countries between 1979 and 1990. Grossman and Krueger affirm that there is an inverted U-shaped relationship between air pollution and the level of per capita income for a threshold (turning point) of $ 5,000. So when the per capita income exceeds $ 5,000, economic growth in these countries translates into improved air quality. The same result is obtained for water pollution, but for a threshold equal to $ 8,000 per capita. Their main conclusion is that the inverted U-shaped relationship between environmental degradation and economic growth is confirmed and applies to all middle-income countries.

Akbostanci and al. (2009)
Akbostanci and al. have examined the relationship between air
pollution and economic growth for Turkey at two levels. First, they studied the
relationship between the level of per capita income and CO2 emissions by time
series analyzes using the technique of cointegration in a multivariate
framework (the Johansen cointegration approach) for a period from 1968 to 2003.
In the second step, they studied the relationship between the level of per
capita income and SO2 emissions based on the estimation of panel data from 59
provinces between 1992 and 2001. Their empirical results show that there is no
relationship in the form of a EKC between the selected environmental indicators
and economic growth. Akbostanci et al. (2009) argue that air pollution for the
case of Turkey will not automatically disappear with economic growth.
