It's surprising how not only companys have been enjoying the privileges of globalization. Nowadays, with the aim of technology, civil society can also play a global role with no borders supported by state laws.
I think 2011 will be the year where the citizens have been agains their goverments. At the beginning of the year in Tunez, Egyp, people were againts their political system. In May we saw the birth of new social movement, 15 M The indignants. Soon, this new movement was spreading throught the word. Their last place was in NY. Our Goverments should listen to this movement. It is very important because they are bringing new ideas to solve this critical situation.
