Hillary Stark · Answer 1

True

Explanation:

Critics of globalization claim that, as globalization increases, countries' sovereignty (the freedom of national officials to act locally and without externally imposed restrictions) is diminished because as some of them say 'it is an economic tsunami', in the sense that - people of other countries 'invade' a country in the name of globalization and the locals of that country are expected to curtail their local customs and individual behavior to accommodate the foreigners. Also foreigners take some of the jobs that are available in the country to the 'detriment' of the locals

Secondly, 'the resulting growth consistently benefits the environment', because the gains of migration are not shared commonly among the locals, rather they could be invested in environmental projects to boost Tourism and attract more foreigners.

Thirdly, the statement that 'Some people lose both relatively and absolutely, and greater insecurity increases a personal stress.'is true because in cities like London and most other European capitals we have seen an increase in crime alongside the rise in immigration and globalization
