Today globalization has become an inexorable trend,bringing development and disadvantage at the same time.Based on the disadvantages of globalization,anti-globalist emerged,but has always been the minority.Anti-globalists don't want to reverse globalization,but object to the disadvantages of globalization.Naomi Klein is one of the most influential anti-globalists in the media.Naomi Klein is a famous contemporary writer,media,social activist,film producer and anti-globalist who is famous for critique of globalization.Klein grows up in the background of globalization,both enjoys benefits also notices shortcomings of globalization.Klein recognizes the essence of globalization and becomes famous in recent years for her anti-globalisation works.Based on the research of Klein's articles,Klein's thoughts can be divided into three parts roughly,such as a critique of the brand,the criticism of the disaster capitalism and environmental protection.These three are mostly organic whole.Branding is conventional way of developed capitalist countries to obtain excess profit,the criticism of the branding is essentially the critique of profit allocation mechanism of globalization,to expose developed countries how to make use of global dominance exploitation in other countries.Disaster capitalism is an unconventional way for capitalists to use the short shock of society to devour state assets,the government uniting capitalists to betray people of public property and cut benefits.Globalization of economic development is not only shared by all people,but also capitalist further exploit wealth of people.Through the criticism of branding and disaster capitalism,Klein raised doubts about current irrational global political and economic order.Environmental protection is not only necessary for human survival,but also an opportunity to reshape the rational international political and economic order.The opportunity of developing countries to seize green industries,it is expected to break the economic advantages of developed capitalist countries to further achieve equality.It is true that globalization is an inevitable trend of history,but the disadvantages of globalization are also not to be ignored.Anti-globalisation is minority views,including klein,but worth studying.Critically absorbing view of the anti-globalisation and related propositions put forward by klein,it is profitable to explore more fair global political and economic order.
