Along with the boom of technology, both developed and developing nations tend to put economies on top of problems that have been solved first.

Some people think that the humanity is coming apart while others feel that we are getting closer to each other. Is humanity driving apart or together?
Due to the sharp increase in cross-country social, economic, and political interactions in recent decades and vast opportunities for communication and cultural and scientific exchange provided by technological advances the humanity might seem to become united and, what is more, unified. Nonetheless, many researchers ring the alarm bells about the dangers of refractory globalization processes and integration and emphasize the superficial nature of the phenomenon. I find the above-stated point of view the most reasonable due to several arguments that I am going to present and discuss in this essay.
