World History (Post WW2 Era) Final

Has globalization been good or bad for the post 1945 (and you may want to begin in the 1980’s) world?  It would probably be better to discuss only briefly the general pros and cons, and then focus on a few selected areas or countries as examples of your thesis. 

The essay will be 5 pages, answering the question above. It will be MLA format, double spaced. No plagiarism please because this is a take-home final. Be careful with the word choice because I'm an international student.
