Classroom Activities (Extra Credit Items)--HE ZIXUAN(하자선)

I usually read news from The Korea Herald.



According to Wikipedia’s Reliable Sources page, The Korea Herald is not directly listed, but it is a major English-language newspaper in South Korea and is generally regarded as reliable for factual reporting.


When I asked ChatGPT, it said that The Korea Herald is usually considered a trustworthy source for general news and Korean current affairs, especially when reporting on verified facts.
However, for controversial or political topics, Wikipedia editors might prefer more internationally recognized outlets such as Reuters or BBC News to confirm the same information.

So, according to both Wikipedia and AI, The Korea Herald is a mostly reliable source, but it’s best to cross-check with another major international media outlet before adding it to a Wikipedia article.

What is globalization--Kim younggyun

 1) Summarize From what I understand, globalization is not merely an economic trend. It is a broad concept in which the world becomes increasingly interconnected on cultural, social, political, and even individual levels. Because globalization is such an all-encompassing idea, it is only natural that debates continue over its definition. This is exactly what made studying the concept of globalization difficult for me. That is why, like Robertson and White, I tried to understand globalization mainly through the two dimensions of increasing connectivity and growing consciousness. I find their approach persuasive.

What is globalization? | Yun Shinji

1.   Summary It is difficult to define the concept of ‘globalization’ with a single meaning, as the term is used in various contexts with different implications. Sociologist Roland Robertson describes globalization as “the compression of the world and the intensification of consciousness of the world as a whole". Robertson and White further elaborate it as two main trends “an increase in global interconnectedness” and "an increase in global consciousness". In this way, globalization is a complex phenomenon in which the world becomes closely connected across borders, and it is used in multiple ways in different contexts. Globalization can be broadly divided into three dimensions cultural, political, and economic. Among them, cultural globalization is the phenomenon we experience most directly in our daily lives. For example, a cultural content that becomes popular can spread worldwide and be shared globally. However, this phenomenon also raises concerns about cultural hom...

What is the relation between politics and globalization? - Yun Shinji

1) Summary The author views “political globalization” as a multidimensional, accelerated, and interconnected form of organization that transcends national borders across space and time. Rather than seeing globalization as a simple reality, the author understands it as a “relational dynamic” that produces a complex and constantly shifting political landscape. According to the author, political globalization is driven by three key processes. First is global geopolitics. This involves interactions mainly between states, including traditional balances of power, international security, territorial disputes, and other state-centered dynamics. These geopolitical interactions continue to shape how states position themselves in an increasingly interdependent world. Second is the global normative culture, which refers to political values and norms—such as human rights and democracy—that are shared or diffused across the world. These norms influence how states govern internally and how they are e...
