Around this time of year, lots of people make resolutions to change their lives. Of course, it's natural to associate a new year with new beginnings, but doing something new brings benefits to your life whenever you choose to do it. In fact, new year is possibly one of the worst times of the year to make life-changing decisions if you want to stick to them: in Europe and north America, it coincides with the middle of winter. With its ling hours of darkness and cold wet weather, this is definitely not a season to be optimistic. This may well be why, as many studies have shown, most people who make new year's resolutions usually break them after five weeks.

There are some who question whether globalization is really something new. After all, they argue, if you look at what was happing in the 18th and 19th centuries, or even earlier, doesn't it seem very similar? Companies in Europe and north America, supported by their governments, were opening up the rest of the world, searching for cheap raw materials. They transported these back to their own factories and produced manufactured goods, then sold them at a huge profit. The world became linked by trade and business.
In a sense, this view is correct, but what it underestimates is the scale and speed of the changes that have taken place in the last thirty years or so. And the key role in these changes is that of computer technology, because it underlines all of them. Thanks to developments in digital technology, for example, it is now possible to move vast amounts of money around the world in seconds. Currency trading now goes on almost 24 hours a day, and it has been estimated that the amount of money traded has gone up by several thousand per cent in the last forty years. Decision taken in a stock market in one country can have a disastrous effect on countries on the other side of world, and entire national economies can be destroyed almost overnight.
What we are seeing today clearly is something different and new. It affects us all, and it relates not just to areas like trade, business and economies, but also to culture, entertainment, what we eat, how we communicate with each other and even how we see ourselves, our relationships and our lives.
