lpv:translated text	"Globalisation – the expanding network of relationships and increasing interdependence among the peoples of the modern world – is having the effect of bringing the world ever closer together due to the rapid development of technology, transport, telecommunications and computer science. People say that the world is getting smaller, and that it will soon become one village, although others believe it would be truer to say that a very narrow section of the social elite of the world are growing closer to each other, while the majority are increasingly excluded from opportunities. It is debatable whether what we are seeing is globalisation or an increasing divide between richer and poorer sections of society on a global scale. Globalisation can be turned to both good use and bad. However, a detailed analysis of economic processes reveals that the poorest peoples of the world are those who are excluded from the process of globalisation, while countries that claim their share in the international division of labour have seen an increase in their national income. Given that two of the most populous countries of the world, China and India, are among the latter, globalisation has in fact helped the majority of the world’s poor to achieve a higher standard of living. All indications suggest that isolation from globalisation brings greater risks in terms of poverty effects than if a country participates in globalisation. Globalisation must benefit everyone. For this to happen, strong international institutions are needed to ensure sustainable development. What is needed in Europe and throughout the world is to establish clear roles linked to clear deadlines. The external and internal policies of the EU, its social model and its development at international level could also serve to other regions of the world as a model of ethical globalisation with a positive impact."@en1
