    Globalization and Its Ethical Implications [WLOs: 1, 2, 3, 5] [CLOs: 1, 2, 3, 5]         

Prepare: In preparing for this discussion, review the Week 1 and Week 2  required resources that focus on globalization, ethics, and moral  reasoning. This will help assist you in examining your own development  of ethical and moral responsibilities as they relate to your Final Paper  and its topic.

Reflect: The change of our world from a local  economy to a national economy to a global, international economy means  that increasingly diverse populations will have to work together to  achieve common goals. However, as the economy becomes increasingly  global, local economies and people may suffer economic disadvantage or  may find themselves marginalized from the rest of the world.  Globalization creates ethical dilemmas for which we will need to find  solutions.

Write: For this discussion, address the following prompts:

• Explain the implications of globalization.
• Identify at least two ethical issues that go along with the global societal topic you have chosen for your final essay.
• Explain how globalization contributes to or affects these ethical dilemmas.
• Propose solutions to these ethical dilemmas that are feasible financially, socially, and culturally.
