In addition,countries can come increase their levels of productivity by increasing employment opportunities. As such this can reduce the brain drain levels that the Caribbean faces. ]]> 2019-04-16 19:45:13 UTC https://padlet.com/danarosegopie/p6yvckgfkh5r/wish/352117340 danarosegopie https://padlet.com/danarosegopie/p6yvckgfkh5r/wish/352119652 This term was created by Marshall McLuhan, a media and communication theorist, who believed that the world was at the same time shrinking and expanding due to technological advancements that brought light to all the different cultures in the world.]]> 2019-04-16 19:52:55 UTC https://padlet.com/danarosegopie/p6yvckgfkh5r/wish/352119652 danarosegopie https://padlet.com/danarosegopie/p6yvckgfkh5r/wish/352120912 This allows for unity economically, politically and even socially]]> 2019-04-16 19:57:09 UTC https://padlet.com/danarosegopie/p6yvckgfkh5r/wish/352120912 danarosegopie https://padlet.com/danarosegopie/p6yvckgfkh5r/wish/352121257 2019-04-16 19:58:31 UTC https://padlet.com/danarosegopie/p6yvckgfkh5r/wish/352121257 danarosegopie https://padlet.com/danarosegopie/p6yvckgfkh5r/wish/352123199 2019-04-16 20:04:11 UTC https://padlet.com/danarosegopie/p6yvckgfkh5r/wish/352123199 danarosegopie https://padlet.com/danarosegopie/p6yvckgfkh5r/wish/352125038 As it is, although Caribbean countries are modernizing, there is still a very high level of brain drain that they experience. As such, whether they were to enter the global village or not, this will still remain a major issue. Caribbean people are already gravitating to international heights, be it through education, employment opportunities or a better lifestyle. This can therefore conclude that citizens are already joining "global village".

This will an even greater exposure to Caribbean festivals. As you may know, Carnival is already such a great tourist attraction, that if this was to become globally recognized,islands such as Jamaica and Trinidad will benefit greatly.
However, for this to promote positive outcomes,  the islands themselves must ensure the safety and integrity of being involved globally. 
In recent times, crime levels have significantly increased. You can see how this will have a negative impact,reducing countries' willingness to associate themselves with countries of such high crime rates because they are not just looking to make an economic gain but also a political statement.]]> 2019-04-16 21:08:42 UTC https://padlet.com/danarosegopie/p6yvckgfkh5r/wish/352137660 danarosegopie https://padlet.com/danarosegopie/p6yvckgfkh5r/wish/352143737 Globalisation in the Caribbean is evident, from music, to clothing, to food. The Caribbean is diverse but traditional Caribbean cultures are being replaced by Eurocentric ways. A lot of multinational companies are making their mark  on Caribbean grounds and technology is aiding in their influence especially through television. Instead of contributing to local economies, people are contributing to foreign economies.

Its proneness to natural disasters results in high export and high import dependence including, in particular, imported energy.
