One of the most spread concerns is the fear of losing the own job. The globalisation of human capital leads to heated discussions and negative associations with the whole process of globalisation, especially in the Western civilisation, since the production in Asia and Latin America is in almost all cases cheaper, occasionally better and more and more often better and cheaper. Often the fear of losing the job to a competitor from abroad superposes all other effects, regardless whether they are reckoned to be positive or negative. In this case, the boundaries between negative consequences and personal dismay become blurred. To actualise the discussion of the globalisation of human capital several aspects need additionally to be considered. First of all, we need to evaluate who is affected by this change on the employment market in fact. In relation to the Stolper-Samualson-Theorem one awareness can be concluded - the globalisation of human capital only refers to the low educated level, while executives and tasks with a high educated basis of knowledge are almost unaffected. Therefore this system for chances of success which basis lies in the education of people, not in their origin or place of birth might even be a fairer system than the system we are living in right now. | |||
This idea leads to the second global concern. When discussing about globalisation, often the word fairness appears, especially in relation to the 3rd world or least developed countries (LCD, ). | |||
