Abstract

Following several years of world political leadership beset by clashes between nations, the trend lately is to spread invisible turmoil within a nation, such as between ethnic struggles and withdrawal or rebellion. New issues in the globalization cycle are related to issues of basic freedoms, political, monetary and social changes, followed by the development of different struggles.
