Necesito ayuda en esto, A lo largo de los últimos años, distintos actores han cuestionado a la globalización conformando un Movi
zalisa [80]

Answer:

El movimiento altersistema, y en ocasiones llamado como altermundismo o movimiento antiglobalización , es un amplio conjunto de movimientos sociales formado por activistas provenientes de distintas corrientes políticas, que a finales del siglo XX convergieron en la crítica social al proceso de globalización.

Existe cierta controversia sobre el término que define a este movimiento. Muchos de sus partidarios prefieren el término «altermundismo» o «alterglobalización», para evitar definirse por oposición, y porque el término «antiglobalización» daría una imagen imprecisa y negativa. El nombre altermundismo proviene precisamente del lema Otro mundo es posible, es un movimiento social heterogéneo compuesto por simpatizantes de muy variados perfiles, que proponen que la globalización y el desarrollo humano se basen en prioridad en los valores sociales y ambientales, en oposición a quienes los centran en el neoliberalismo económico, nacido en el Foro Social Mundial,[1] que cada año reúne a movimientos sociales de cientos de países del mundo.

El antiglobalismo acusa al actual proceso de globalización de beneficiar a las grandes multinacionales y a los países más ricos[2] acentuando la precarización del trabajo, y consolidando un modelo de desarrollo económico injusto e insostenible. También lo acusa de socavar la capacidad democrática de los Estados, entre otros aspectos negativos.[3][4][5]

Mumz [18]

Answer:

As explained below.

Explanation:

  • The distribution of earthquakes defines the boundary of the earth tectonic plates as earthquakes have the seismic energy that gets transferred to the landscape and as result to this the transform, divergent and convergent boundaries along the plate margins can be found.
  • Deep focus earthquakes are those that have shallow bases and origin in trenches where the lands are subdued under the plates and are associated with prominent oceanic features like the mid-oceanic ridges, deep-sea ridges, and seamounts, guyots and canyons, etc.
  • The ocean floor of convergence that creates the deep-seated earthquake as being collided with land and an oceanic plate or being collided with an oceanic and oceanic plate boundary. Physical features are faults and rift valleys.
  • The tonga trench is located near the tonga island and in the southwestern pacific ocean, is the second deepest trench on earth. Pacific plate is being subdued under this tench with an in convergence rate of 15 cm/year. Thus the rigid slab of lithosphere plate is being pulled towards this zone of convergence.
