——👀Details:————
John Pilger is one of the world's most renowned investigative journalists and documentary filmmakers. In this fully updated collection, he reveals the secrets and illusions of modern imperialism.
In 2001, John Pilger made 'The New Rulers of the World', a film exploring the impact of globalization. It took Indonesia as the prime example, a country that the World Bank described as a 'model pupil' until its 'globalized' economy collapsed in 1998.
The myths of globalization have been incorporated into much of our everyday language. "Thinking globally" and "the global economy" are part of a jargon that assumes we are all part of one big global village, where national borders and national identities no longer matter. But what is globalization? And where is this global village? In 2001, John Pilger made 'The New Rulers of the World', a film exploring the impact of globalization. It took Indonesia as the prime example, a country that the World Bank described as a 'model pupil' until its 'globalized' economy collapsed in 1998. Globalization has not only made the world smaller. It has also made it interdependent. An investment decision made in London can spell unemployment for thousands in Indonesia, while a business decision taken in Tokyo can create thousands of new jobs for workers in north-east England. This might seem a very natural development if you live in a country like Britain, with its long international history as a trading nation and imperial power. Bringing the world closer together may throw up new opportunities for cultural and economic interaction, but it also exposes us to the negative aspects of life on a shrinking planet, whether it be the threat of global warming, the international traffic of women for sexual exploitation or the spread of AIDS throughout Africa and Asia.

➤ 'a must see for consumers; that is each of us' by janis-zogots14 March 2008
There are loads of movies, audio, and written material accessible to the mass public shouting 'bad globalization', ugly politics, etc, etc. however, they never go into detail, never explaining what it means, how we've come to this point, and what were the reasons.
This is not that kind of movie. It goes deeper into the beginning of so-called globalization in the most analytical detail I've seen. Pilger took one specific country (Indonesia) and the '60s where it all started. J. Pilger asks brave, direct questions to each side involved and gets back different views on said topic. And Here you can see that one can bear the responsibility of the system, every corporation, every government can account for a tiny little part of the "evil" and therefore stay virtually clean.
I've heard people don't like these kinds of movies cause they don't give you any hint on solutions. They shouldn't give. They are to make you think, to make you aware. Nevertheless, it teaches people to recognize professional, analytical documentaries (or interview essays in this case) like this one from manipulative, shouting pieces of garbage that flood the public knowledge.
It's a shame that this is the first comment on this movie which is 7 years old by now.
