TOPIC 5: GLOBAL ISSUES ANb PROTESTS

Throughout history mass protests have come at a time when a large majority of the population has been affected by policies of the rulers and leaders. Nowadays, the decisions of politicians also affect our lives and sometimes our only defence to protest against an unjust and unequal system. Activist groups mobilize large numbers to oppose business-driven globalisation, war ond undemocratic decision-making, and to press for global peace and justice. • • • •

Is it worth protesting? Who takes any notice anyway? How can we protest? ‘If you don’t ask, you don’t get’. Student protests? They don’t know what they’re doing oil they warit is a day off! ‘1 admire those who do it but 1 wouldnt do it.’ flAL Pros and cons of globalisation. Why do sorne protests turn into violence? Farnous people who hove protested. (John Lennon, Bono, ...) -

TOPIC 8: IMMI&RATION Over 8% of the total population in 5pain is from other countries according to the Iatest census. The sharp increase

in the number of foreign residents in the last years and the recent polemical debate surrounding the reform of thl immigration law, have made immigration one of the most hotly contested issues in the media. and the second most important “national” issue for Spaniards after terrorism. • • • •

Why do people emigrate? What’s the attraction in Spain? The immigrant workers replace the Spanish in low status work. We are living in an increasingly globalised world.

• • • •
