What Does Contemporary Society Mean?

A contemporary society is defined as a setting characterized by technological innovation and increasing human interconnection and globalization. It brings about changes such as increased life expectancy, literacy and gender equality, bringing a natural equilibrium. Well it’s so easy to say that in words, the most difficult part is trying to put this mechanism in action. In word it is easy to say what is the task of the modern society, but in reality we are neglecting some of the issue. In fact, with all the development that the modern era brought to us, for instance internet, television, which helps us, being more and more comfortable in our homes, we tend to overlook, and sur others in need. There are lots of problems that are left to be discussed, and resolved. One problem which I found surprisingly left somewhere to be blown by the wind is Globalization. Yes, the concept is well known and its purpose is to bring everyone at a certain level, standard of living, but in fact from what I see and it’s only my point of view, in this society there are only two classes, those who are rich and who are trying to become wealthier by exploiting those who form the lower class, who live below the standards. This rule applies not only in our country, but even at a broader level, and scale in much more poorer countries than ours. If we take a second and look at our society, even if we are the worst paid citizens from the European Union, with a very lowest salaries rate, somehow we manage to spoil our self’s with luxury, which brings me the question. How poor are we? And I think that the answer lies, in front of our eyes, we prideful, we like to make others thing that we can have something that we can’t afford. But moving forward, this was just an example, mostly I want to talk about the Third World, and Cental and South America and Part of Asia. As I said, globalization is one of the fundamental pillars of contemporary society, but in foreign countries like Brazil, Mexico, India, Malaysia ,Kenya ,Congo and many others this pillar as I call it has turned to be a false friend for the inhabitants of those countries. You may as now asking yourself why? As we see those countries seem to develop quiet well and fast, the economy seems to be going, why would you say that something is going wrong. Well it’s true, they are developing, but how many persons still live in Slums, millions of persons. Some of them with no identity, they seem to be left in the sun by the authorities. Why is that?, companies around the globe in their way of achieving a successfully year profit, move their factories from the developed countries to those who seem to offer a better , and a easier way to a good profit, in which I mean, that because of the taxes and wages from the developed countries, they look for states in which they pay less the employee and so they can earn more. That simple, the gap between the classes of the contemporary society enlarges itself, in such a manner that, who is condemned to live in poverty, will in many cases, stay under that level for a long time, or worse will never reach the perfect, and sustainable level so that he can live according to the normal society from the developed countries.

This is a question that all listeners should take in consideration. Should we continue to sustain this purpose, or should we change it. It worries me, that in the so called contemporary society, which is defined by this well intended ideas we are getting lost in this grandiose words. We have created a manic world nauseous with the pursuit of material wealth. Many also bear their cross of imagined deprivation, while their fellow human beings remain paralyzed by real poverty. And this spreads it’s self to other branches like education and family . According to United nation, in 2010 illiteracy population was made of almost one billion person’s worldwide, most of them from Africa. Education is one of the main reasons of poverty. We dispose of the technology to ensure education for the masses, but only in some countries, which can display the economic possibility. But what do we do with those who can’t have access to books, internet, computers, and whose future hangs on a piece of chart and a blackboard. No, as rudimental as it seems we must try harder to ensure this doesn’t collapse, an investment that will insure and oversee our nation’s future, and we should offer an essential right, the right to learning for all those who need it most. Our contemporary society is experimenting with the diminishment of caregivers for children. Some children are raised through crucial stages of life by only one person. This one person, who strives to give the best, may be overwhelmed, busy, trying to raise many children. And even in homes with two parents, many children are essentially alone. And because of these circumstances parents are forced to send their children’s to work. Exposing them to the cruel reality of what it seems to be the society. Lack of education and family can destroys a child’s childhood. The most important idea is health care, working at early ages, can bring with them major health complications. Offering them the medical which is needed to be cured and defended from other diseases and the protection from undue influence upon a minor, and even on family is very important. Economic growth is crucial but often not sufficient to create conditions in which the world’s poorest people can improve their lives. But we also recognized the fundamental role of institutions and social changes to strength the development processes and the inclusion of poor people. Opportunity: Expanding economic opportunity for poor people by stimulating economic growth, making markets work better for poor people and working for their inclusion, particularly by building up their assets, such as land and education. Empowerment: Strengthening the ability of poor people to shape decisions that affect their lives and removing discrimination based on gender, race, ethnically and social status.

Security: Reducing poor people’s vulnerability to sickness, economic shocks, unemployment, natural disasters and violence and helping them cope when such misfortunes occur. Advances in these areas are complementary. These priorities can allow the poor to have greater independence and security in their day-to-day lives: for example, empowering women and other socially disadvantaged groups expand their range of economic opportunities, and strengthening poor people’s organizations and their involvement in decision making processes enable them to press for improved services and for policy choices that respond to their needs. Finally, making poor people less vulnerable makes it easier for them to take advantage of potential market opportunities These priorities can allow the poor to have greater independence and security in their day to day lives, and would create opportunities to participate in the market In sum, it can be concluded that globalization has significantly improved the world economy, but due to unbalanced and uneven economic growth the world’s social and poverty problems are magnified. The interconnectivity among world nations has created a need for a global collective action to combat the world poverty and create a humanitarian and sustainable global world in the 21st century. In order to make globalization sustainable and viable requires focus from below which involves interdependence at the grassroots level that aims to protect, restore, and nurture the environment; to enhance ordinary people’s access to the basic resources they need to live a dignified existence to democratize local, national, transnational political institutions, and to ease tensions and prevent violent conflict between power centers and authority structures
