[PEN-L:11526] globalisation's influences on mentality

[Hiroto Tsukada <H.Tsukada@xxxxxxxxx>]

Dear Penners,

My name if Hiroto Tsukada, a Professor of Economics at
Yamaguchi University, Japan. (Visiting UK till next
January, at University of Kent at Canterbury.)

I am studying now on globalisation's influences on
mentality of people. My intention is to use it as an
evidence for the necessity of enforcing welfare states. I
am comparing Japan,US and UK,and a little of Sweden. The
key words there are extreme school bullying to death and
overwork to death in Japan,growing mental depression in
UK,and school violence in US. As for Japan,I am quite sure
they are the results of growing competitive urge. (Though
it is not easy to prove how much of it is caused by
globalising movement.) I am not sure if school violence of
US represents a pathological side of this country, but
that's the most impressive phenomenon about US at the
moment for me.

Hiroto
