Take-Home Activity 11. Globalization as an unstoppable force is demonstrated through the article “U.S
announces a brief truce with the Taliban in Afghanistan, as a prelude to possible
negotiations” by Tracy Wilkinson. This article is an example that employs this
metaphor because it shows how the U.S is negotiating a ceasefire with a
confirmed terrorist group that has been a long time enemy. It proves that no
matter how bad the terms are between the two parties, international negotiations
are inevitable for both sides to find mutual benefits.
2. Globalization as our era is demonstrated through the article “Welcome to ‘peak
decade’, from globalization to central banks” by Enda Curran. This article is an
example that employs this metaphor because it shows how we are living in an
exclusive era of globalization that can only be witnessed during our time. It
further states “The era of people, goods and money flowing increasingly
unchecked around the world may have passed its high point” (Curran), indicating
that globalization is an outcome that has been achieved during our era.
3. Globalization as a benefactor is demonstrated through the article “The biggest
celebrity donations to the Australian bushfire relief” by Ana Eksouzian-Cavadas.
This article is an example that employs this metaphor because it shows how many
different celebrities have made generous donations to relief for those who were
affected by the Australian bushfires. Benefactor is about giving and helping those
in need, which in this case would be several people donating money to help
Australia following their wildfires.
