I think you're confusing global trade with globalization.
Globalization is the creation of massive free trade areas, the removal of tarrifs, the "opening" of developing markets to large multi-nationals, the punishment of countries who try to protect their economies and so on.
Global trade is good. You and I agree.
Globalizations is just another word because the West and the mega-corps thought that "exploitation" just sounded too dirty.
