I am going to talk about the notion of SPACES AND EXCHANGES.
To begin, I’d like to give a definition of this notion: it deals with the geographical and symbolic areas that all societies occupy and the interaction between men of different societies.
To illustrate this notion, I have chosen to talk about the world as a territory.
We will therefore wonder if the world is as open a territory as one may think?
First, we will see that globalization has transformed the world into a global village, then we will study how this phenomenon has become extremely controversial and has led to question the world’s openness.

To start with, I think it’s important to give the definition of what globalization means. It’s the worldwide movement toward economics, financials, trades, and communications integration.
Globalization is the interdependence created between all the countries of the world. This phenomenon was first named in 1904. But it has always existed, since the first Homo sapiens started walking toward other continents.
Little by little travelling has become easier and faster. Indeed, in nowadays you go everywhere in the world in less of one day by plane. When we think that Magellan ended his world round of 3 years long in 1522 and it was a real achievement.
With the development of Internet this century, we can also travel thanks to the web. For example, Google earth is a way to see every place in every country without getting off your chair. Thanks to skype or watsapp we can call friends everywhere in the world !! The only contraint is the jet lag which is pretty huge.
Those improvements change considerably the way people apprehend the world.
Finally the creation of organisation such as ALENA or UNION EUROPEENNE, created a dependence between countries concerning economics and politics
As a result, we notice more and more mixt-wedding but also the birth of a world culture. We all dress the same, listen to the same music, do the same sports. Sometimes we aren’t aware of this. For example, when you wear a jean you do not always notice that it’s first an American fashion.
However we can see some danger of this globalization, with the example of the cyberattacks, and reject. Is the global world as open as it seems ?

All across the world, from the United States to Britain to Europe to China, a huge resistance is building up against globalization. True, this resistance is not self-consciously aimed against globalization; in different countries it focuses on different issues. But since each of these issues arises as a fall-out of globalization, not to see the interconnectedness of this resistance, as one that essentially and implicitly targets globalization, is to miss the wood for the trees.
First, we cannot deny that globalization doesn’t benefit all. Indeed, the “global” way of life, as we call it, isn’t accessible for all. For example, only half the world’s population uses the Internet which questions the power of this tool and the benefit it can bring to the population.
Moreover, as we told in the first part of a “common culture”, this aspect of globalization is now question and controversial.
