    Global cities are primary nodes in the global economy that play a significant role. They include New York, London, Tokyo, and others. While global cities drive economic opportunities and competitiveness, they can also be sites of inequality and poverty as globalization creates winners and losers. The challenges of global cities include gentrification that drives out the poor in favor of wealthier residents, concentrating inequality.

    WHY STUDY GLOBAL CITIES? (BAYADOG, CHERRY MAE O.)

     How ideas of Internationalism shaped modern world politics


     We also examine cultural movements like K-pop and how they spread
    through media like the internet
     First globalization is a spatial because it occurs in physical spaces
     Second globalization is a spatial because what means it move is the fact it is
    based in place.

    DEFINING THE GLOBAL CITY (RECLA, PRINCESS GRACE P.)


     Saskia Sassen is a sociologist who popularize the term “ GLOBAL CITY” in
    the 1990’s.Her criteria for what constitutes a global city we’re primarily
    economic. In her work, She initially identified three global cities: New York,
    London, and Tokyo all of which are hubs of global finance and capitalism.
    They are homes for instance of the world’s top stock exchanges where
    investors buy and sell shares in major corporations.
     Limiting the discussion of global cities to these three metropolises,
    however, is providing more and more restrictive. The global economy has
    changed significantly since Sassen wrote her book, and any account of the
    economic power of cities today must take note of the latest development.
    INDICATORS FOR GLOBALITY (NERI, JOFFERSON)
    So what are the multiple attributes of the Global City? The foremost
    Characteristic is :
    • Economic Power – Sassen remains correct in saying that economic power
    largely determines which cities are global.
    • Economic Opportunities – In a global city make it attractive to talents from
    across the world.
    • Economic Competitiveness –
     Center of Authority-
     Center of higher learning and culture – A city’s intellectual influence is seen
    through the influence of it’s Publishing Industry

    THE CHALLENGES OF GLOBAL CITIES (ZAPANTA,DANIELA O.)


     Global cities conjure up images of fast- paded, exciting, cosmopolitan
    lifestyle. But such descriptions are lacking.
     They can be sites of great inequality and Poverty as well as tremendous,
    violence. Like the broader processes of globalization, global cities create
    winners and losers.
     Cities can be sustainable because of their density. As Richard Florida Notes:
    “Ecologist have found that by con- concentrating their population in smaller
    areas, cities and metros decrease, human enroachment on natural habitat”
    THE GLOBAL CITY AND THE POOR (LOPEZ, ALRYN V.)

     We have consistently noted that economic globalization has paved the way for massive
    inequality
     Many cities particularly those in the developing countries are sites of contradiction. In
    places like Mumbai, Jakarta and Manila, it is common to find gleaming buildings
    alongside massive shantytowns .This duality may even be seen in rich, urban cities.
     New York and San Francisco are poor urban endaves occupied by African. Americans
    and immigrant families who are often denied opportunities at a better life .
     This phenomenon of driving out the poor in favor of newer, wealthier residence is called
    gentrification
     In most of the world’s global cities, the middle class is also thinking out.
     Globalization creates high income jobs that are concentrated in global cities.
    CONCLUSION
    Global cities, as noted in this lesson, are sites and mediums of globalization. They are,
    therefore, material representation of the phenomenon. Through them, we see the best
    globalization; They are places that create exciting fusions of culture and ideas. They are also
    places that generate tremendous wealth. However, they remain sites of great inequality, where
    global servants serve global entrepreneurs. The question of how globalization can be made
    more just is partly a question of how make their cities more just.
