How does globalization affect our lives?

Pre-1900s, a "community" had more well-defined boundaries and many people rarely went far beyond those bounds. Some families/individuals left those communities during periods of inter-country migrations (emigration), as far back as the beginning of the USA history as people continually moved inland. The 1849 gold rush formed one of the biggest westward migrations. Through the 1900s, even when people did not physically move, the advent of radio and then television began a degree of globalization that allowed cultures to witness the lives of others. With more and more technology (airplanes, computers), we now not only witness other people and their lives but interact with other people as well. Just 30 years ago, grandparents never dreamed that one day people could instantly communicate with another person who lives across the world. Now, we can more easily send a message via E-mail and can instantly connect via land phone or mobile phone to almost anywhere and anyone in the world. This is such a far cry from the life in the 1800s and early 1900s (just 100 years ago) when people communicated through telegrams that had to be delivered by a person to someone's house or business, or when making a call into another State or even down the street meant ringing up an "Operator" who would manually "connect" calls through a massive switching board (a switchboard). Almost unheard-of now are "party lines" in which numerous households shared the same "line" but each home was assigned a different number of "rings" so that each home would know whether the call was for them or for another house. But, globalization also means that within hours any person can spread major illnesses or disease, or introduce illnesses in places that have not yet built immunity to a certain pathogen. For example, in the 1920s, tuberculosis patients were routinely placed in "TB hospitals/sanitoriums" to keep them away from healthy persons. Now, someone may not even know they have been exposed to TB and can get on a plane, thus exposing hundreds of unsuspecting people to the illness. Global transportation also means that certain species of insects or animals have accidentally hitched rides via boats or airplanes into new countries that have no natural predators against these new "visitors". Governments have outlined the types of foods or products that can be brought back into a home country from foreign lands -- for example, some fruits grown in other countries carry insects native to the other country but that could wipe out crops in a different country.
