Description

globalization of commodity and

dehumanization of humanity

GLOBALIZATION OF COMMODITY AND DEHUMANIZATION OF HUMANITY explores the dehumanizing role of globalization in a philosophic mode. What globalization does is to reify humankind. From being individuals, they are transformed into commodities. Their intrinsic human worth is ignored. Hence, life, which since time immemorial has been perceived as precious, becomes worthless and redundant. It needs to be commended that Jose Vallanattu has rightly realized the danger of globalization ana has succeeded in pointing out its vicious circle.

Mr. M. R Veerendrakumar MP (Managing Director of the

Mathrubhumi Publications).

Globalization of Commodity and Dehumanization of Humanity helps us to grasp better the process and politics of globalization and stresses the need to be vigilant lest the developing nations should lose their economic freedom.

Bishop Jacob Manathodath (Bishop of Palghat)
