Sushma Sharma
India
Abstract
ABSTRACT
Globalization changes the power of developing countries to that of developed countries. It
changes power relationship between government, business and civil societies. Most
fundamentally it changed the prospects of peace both within countries and between them.
Moreover in this era of globalization countries are residing on a „heap of baroodh‟. There is
mad race of collecting weapons of destruction at national level as well as individual level.
There is violence everywhere at every moment. Every person is intolerant and frustrated.
Negative values are spreading like a vishdhar snake in each and every country. World war
like situation is emerging at international level. When a war breaks out, it‟s on slaught is not
only on forces fighting with each other but also on the civilians and innocent children. It
effects the whole eco-social cultural, psychological fabric of a nation. Human rights are
violated. Due to development of information technology moral crisis are on increase. No
peace everywhere. Now the question is how to secure our generation from these evil and
moral crisis-the only answer is education that always plays a role of catalyst for change.
