Globalization is a controversial issue in the third world countries. ! is study tries to determine the factors associated with this controversy and explained the economic impacts of globalization in the third world countries on the basis of some of the scholars' arguments expressed on the subject. In the recent past, there have been the pros and cons of globalization in developing countries. Some argue that globalization is indeed a necessary evil to the third world countries that it can neither be rejected nor fully applied to its national policy. However, many others suggest that globalization should be looked at in all its manifestations and from different angles. In order to address this issue, when considered from the economic point of view, the negative economic impacts of globalization should be minimized and exportable capacity of the third world economy in the global market should be increased in a step by step manner.

The present paper deals with an actual global issue of the contemporary market: drugs safety. The article is a review paper, built around a hot topic: drugs security and pharmaceutical scandals. The starting points of our analyses are publications and authors from all over the world, with a complex literature relating risky and controversial aspects of drugs consumption. One result of our study is the fact that there are serious breaches of ethics and protocol in clinical trials, not only in those conducted in the Third World countries. In such conditions, where is the real drugs consumer protection? It is difficult for the global multi-billion dollar drugs market to be totally controlled. That is why, nothing will change within the consumer protection field until the consumers become enough outraged in order to take action and to protect themselves.

The issue of nuclear proliferation is replete with problems to which there are no surefire solutions. In this essay, this troublesome terrain is examined in three different but complementary ways: first, through case studies of the nuclear dealings of the U.S. with India and Pakistan; second, in a broad review of incentives toward and dampers on the spread of nuclear weapons; and third, in terms of implications for national policy.

The problem with Prakash, O'Hanlon and Washbrook conclude, is that he tries to ride two horses at once—one Marxist, the other poststructuralist deconstructionist. ‘But one of these may not be a horse that brooks inconstant riders. …’ So, they say we must choose only one to ride on, not both because the two, in their view, have opposing trajectories. One advances historical understanding and progressive change, the other denies history and perpetuates a retrogressive status quo. Posed in this manner, the choices involve more than a dispute over which paradigm provides a better understanding of the histories of the third world and India. At stake is the writing of history as political practice, and the only safe bet, from their point of view, is Marxism (of their kind), not the endless deferral and nihilism of deconstruction and postmodernism. Having set up this opposition, O'Hanlon and Washbrook's either/or logic has no place for the productive tension that the combination of Marxist and deconstructive approaches generates. They are uncomfortable with those recent writings that employ Marxist categories to analyze patterns of inequalities and exploitation while also using deconstructive approaches to contend that Marxism is part of the history that institutionalized capitalist dominance—approaches which argue that although Marxism can rightfully claim that it historicizes the emergence of capitalism as a world force, it cannot disavow its history as a nineteenth-century European discourse that universalized the mode-of-production narrative.
