ructions: Please answer BOTH essays questions below (each essay should be 750-1000 words) .  Your essay should have a thesis, a clear argument and supported by evidence.  You will be graded on a number of factors, which include written expression (please refer to the attached rubric for details).  Outside sources are not required, but any source used must be cited.  Students will receive a grade only with no comments unless specifically requested beforehand. 1.  Worlds Together, Worlds Apart ends with, "Globalization has had transforming effects, many of them decidedly good for large segments of the world's population, but some of them unsettling."   In the 500 years since that initial contact between Europeans and Native Americans, what would you say was the most important positive transformative effect on human societies? Is it political, cultural, social, technological or something else?  Explain your answer. 2.  Would you say that decolonization or the Cold War had the greatest impact upon the world since 1950?  Consider both the antecedents and the long term consequences of these phenomena.  You should also in your answer consider what that impact has on the world today.
