I have Fallen in Love with Los Angeles. After journeying through many European countries, and in Northern America, to Canada, in Oshawa and Toronto, I enjoyed my first Summer in Los Angeles in 1992. I had the epiphany in Bordeaux (France), where I decided to pursue a Doctoral degree in Comparative History at UCLA, in the United States. I did not find a booming democracy when I got to Los Angeles, instead, I assisted to the "Los Angeles Riots" and had to acclimate and integrate my life with the University of California Los Angeles Campus, which I had found fascinatingly diverse.Want the audible of this book in its entirety?

After the fall of the Berlin Wall in Europe, Dr. Olga Magdalena Lazin was enchanted by the complexities of the globalization process and wanted to overcome ridiculous myth and propaganda that distract people from understanding the multifaceted aspects of globalism and regionalism vs old-fashioned nationalism. She writes “Decentralized Globalization”(published by AuthorHouse), a far cry from other globalization literature in that it concentrates on the significant role that civil society and civil government play in globalization.  “Decentralized Globalization” provides a fresh, multi-dimensional viewpoint on globalization. In this it is unlike other globalization literature, which tends to be written either in favor or against globalization, or highlight cross-border issues such as economic dislocation, the spread of pandemic disease, cultural assimilation, rapid decrease in transportation times, immigration, or the growth of drug-trafficking and crime cartels. Dr Lazin’s believes are that civil society should act as a check on executive powers in all countries, to counteract nationalistic representatives authorized to do so.  Lazin acknowledges that readers have become more knowledgeable and can now shake off the narrow views on globalization by better studying the statistical data enclosed and the facts. Her book then aids them in further understanding by explaining the anti-globalization movement. It is based on the premise that globalization is more than trade and economics. “Decentralized Globalization” cites analysis and data proving the effectiveness of all Free Trade Agreements, especially within NAFTA. It has done a world of good. California is perfectly intertwined with the Mexican economy; the balance struck being a perfect model for the rest of the World. The race for Free Trade agreements and elimination of tariff has started long time ago with the creation of the EU, and it works.Civic society keeps the government honest and clamors to take into account the non-governmental interest groups. E.g. to reform Constitutions. Too many countries will need to change from their judicial systems, from “guilty until proven innocent to " innocent until proven guilty", which should be the norm in the twenty-first Century.
