'We are living in globalization' vs 'We live in globalization' Fri Sep 28, 2007 7:06 am  'We are living in globalization' vs 'We live in globalization'
 

Hello

I have two sentences which I don't know if they are right or wrong.

1. We are living in globalization.

2. We live in globalization.

Are they correct or not?

Can I say "We are living/ we live under/through globalization"? I mean, can I use other prepositions besides "in"?

Thanks.

.
Neither 1 nor 2 makes much sense to me. We live / are living under globalization sounds OK.
