Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

Critics of free trade and economic globalization are vast, some of which are the following:

1. Globalization causes integration of some groups while it leads to the marginalization of others in the economic policy and practice.

2. Globalization has led to economic crises in certain regions, as the influx of western and capitalist principles does not align with the political and structural climate in some regions.

3. Free trade has led to the theft of intellectual properties particularly in the developing nations

4. Free trade has caused an increase in poor working conditions through outsourcing of jobs to developing nations at cheaper rates and working conditions.

5. Free trade has led to the degradation of natural resources and the destruction of native cultures in the home country.
