The Era of New Global Movements

 
Globalization and globalism enhance the idea of economic liberalization, basically trade liberalization. The term and process also bring the idea of democracy, human rights like global issues. In this contemporary world, in its different parts, we can find different types of globalization process are going on, depending on the nature of interests of the powers like the United States.
If we are taking democracy as an issue popularized by the western world especially united states; In the case of the Middle East, we hardly find them comfortable with a democratic government at power. As an example we can say about the situation in Egypt after the Arab spring, Hosni Mubarak was not supported by western democracy pavers although he was elected through the election. But the warm relation of Saudi Arabia and western world reflects the comfortableness with non-democratic power presence in that particular region. In 2011 King Abdullah first granted women to participate as a voter in the municipal election and they stand in 2015 election. It reflects the state of democracy in Saudi Arabia.
But it would not be fair to ignore the importance and presence of global movements regarding Climate change, but the result of the movement is at the slow motion and here also economy and technology act as a big fact. Economically advanced countries are also rich in technological developments. Access to the Internet and social media in poor countries relatively low then the developed countries.
