Globalization has become one of the most significant phenomena in current society. Globalization was defined by different sentences and theories in books, magazines and journals. However, it is difficult to define its intrinsic meaning in the real world. Different countries were affected dramatically by the process of globalization in diverse aspects such as economic aspect and cultural aspect. In addition, developed countries and developing countries may have diverse attitudes towards globalization based on their profits and costs. This essay will point out main reasons and consequences of globalization, and will state different opinions about globalization. At the end, statements and personal views of the sustainability of globalization will be demonstrated as well. Dicken (2015) clarified that connectivity was the core characteristic of globalization and information and goods interconnection between countries also induced the process of globalization. It was confirmed that technology development was one of the primary foundations of globalization. As Langhorne (2001) considered, the development of technology had three stages since the world’s Industrial Revolution. The first stage started after the invention of steam engine, and then steam machines were widely used in transportation industries, which made the communication between nations become quicker and safer. In the second stage, the development of military force including rocket and satellite equipment played an
We live in a time of worldwide change. What happens in one part of the world impacts people on the other side of the world. People around the world are influenced by common developments.
After reading the history of this person, I experienced different feelings in the first pride that in this world there are still such people, secondly the sadness that I as a person still failed to do something extraordinary for this world. From what I have read, I have noticed, to a large extent, the positive aspects of globalization. Even Samir himself speaks about this that they greatly influenced him “Globalization has had a very strong effect on me. It has allowed me to live with my friends and extended families that live in very different cultures and settings.”
During the last decade of the twentieth century, the word ‘globalization’ has become an increasingly prominent feature of political, social, and economic discussion in academic and policymaking circles, as well as in the media. The processes and outcomes of globalization drew attention and debates that had one thing in common. The research shows that nearly everyone agrees that globalization is a trend that is changing the face of the world, and as a result the world society lives in a more ‘globalized’ world. Nearly two and a half decades passed since 1990s, and studies have been conducted to examine the causes and consequences of globalization. Moreover, nearly every person experiences some type of globalization and can testify firsthand the effects it has on their life, society, and the state. The analysis of the effects that globalization dynamics have on the world society indicates that globalization has a significant positive impact via spreading opportunities and wealth across nations, stimulating innovation and productivity, enhancing the economic development of poorer countries, and helping to improve living standards.
Transnational criminals have been one of the biggest beneficiaries of globalization (Stewart, 2012, para2). Globalization means that whole countries are becoming one single world as boosting interdependence in international society. In other words, it is the phenomenon that economy of nation states has become weak, and all over the world integrate into an one community centering on economic markets. However, different from an intrinsic mean, images of globalization have been changed to pessimistic perspective because a lot of criminals have been offered illicit benefits from there. More serious problems are they exploiting globalization on decidedly worst crimes, and governments cannot delay the speed of global crimes, let alone that solving this issue because of these reasons. So, many kinds of crimes such as, human trafficking, drug smuggling, and cybercrime that worked with organized crime have been accelerating with the dramatic growth of globalization.
Smallpox, slavery and extinction is what globalization brought to the native americans. Yes it had its good fruits, but the bad ones far outweigh the goods ones. Globalization is the movement of goods, capital, services, people, technology and information. It is the action or procedure of international integration of countries arising from the convergence of world views, products, ideas, and other aspects of culture. Advances in the means of transport (such as the steam locomotive, steamship, jet engine, and container ships) and in telecommunications infrastructure (including the rise of the telegraph and its modern offspring, the Internet and mobile phones) have been major factors in globalization, generating further interdependence of economic and cultural activities. Globalization is largely overlooked by people and governments alike which has lead to a neglect of the negative effects it has on native and local traditions, customs and cultures. Globalization decimates local culture because more often than not, the bad outweighs the good. Globalization is happening rapidly but the global government lacks the means to regulate and direct it toward useful and beneficial results.
Studying globalization is an eye opener to see many different aspects of globalization in both positive and negative ways. As we have been defining globalization as it is a “process of interaction and integration among people, companies, and governments of different nations, a process driven by international trade and investment and aided by information technology, which shows more good benefits of globalization” (globalization101) but it's also deeply controversial in its different effects to economy, health, culture, education, energy, environment, human rights, international law, investment, media, trade and so many more. These aspects have shown us how it’s important to create a more integrated global world is a better way to transform people’s life to a better or it can be unconstructive to many.
There has been many problems within the U.S, from terrorism to violence, even drugs from other countries. Consequently, America will not take action. According to the government, they are trying their hardest to prevent these unfortunate events, but in reality all they do is buy more weapons to continue with their unnecessary actions. What should America do? In order to mitigate international terrorism, America should not meddle in the affairs of other countries, instead they should concentrate on educating the youth to prevent the from drugs and violence.
Globalisation is one of the major issues affecting our society today. But many people do not still commend it as a threat to the society because it snags is concealed like a Trojan horse which disguises its dangers by professing to be an advantage at the beginning but then causes havoc when its clients are mesmerized by its appearance.

Across the world, globalization is one of the most significant aspects that has occurred over the last fifty years. It allows a country to integrate economically with other countries through a global network comprised of people, trade, and transportation. With the global landscape only becoming more intertwined, globalization and its inherent pros and cons seem to be here to stay. In many areas, global powers tend to lack in rectifying the negative aspects and only focus on the positive side. America, for example, is a leader in the globalization efforts, even though it has greatly effected job opportunities at home, widening income gaps, and an increased standard of living due to fluctuating world markets.
Although connections might not seem apparent, nations around the world have become closer to one another now more than ever before. Countries are creating stronger internal ties; goods and services are being promoted and exchanged between nations, which creates relationships. Globalization is a process of intercommunication and integration within people, companies, and different nation’s governments. Globalization is processed by international trade and investments aided by information technology. This process has many effects on a nation. It affects the environment, culture, political systems, economics, and development. In addition to human’s physical wellbeing in societies around the world. Citizens and companies do not desire to do business with other nations just because, but instead it is an occurrence because there is a better benefit for that citizen or company. Globalization will progress until the government applies rules and regulations to control it, or stop it. Globalization and developing countries have a parallel correlation. As a country develops globalization occurs. Globalization can bring on both great opportunities and disadvantages. Globalization can create aggressive competition.
Globalization involves "shrinking" or reduction of the world as well as an increased consciousness in regards to the world as a whole. Globalization is a term which is used in the description of changes in societies and the economy of the world which results in a dramatic increase in investment, cross border trade s well as cultural exchange. Globalization is dominated by nation states, economies of national and the cultural identities of nations. Globalization creates an interconnected world with a global mass culture which is commonly referred to as a global village (Egnatz, 2011).
The issues of globalization increasingly dominate the universe’s life. The concept of globalization according to Robertson (1992) refers to the narrowing of the world as incentives and increased our awareness of the world, namely the increasing global connections and our understanding of the connection. Globalization is a situation in which no boundaries between the people of the world and links communities in a country with people in another countries. Globalization departs from an idea to unite the nations which is expected to be a mutual agreement and guidelines for nations around the world. Globalization is able to waive the space and time constraints to get the interaction and communication between nations can be done
First the term “globalization” must be defined. There are various definitions of it and they are many effects it has on the world. First off, globalization can be defined as a phenomenon of major changes in the conventional world, let it be industrially or environmentally. These changes include multiple variables such as the economic, cultural, political, and technical ones, in addition to major changes in regard to our own personal lives. It is driven by many factors such as economic and technology that is shaped by political climates and nationalized institutions that define rules and regulations. Globalization is an expansion beyond the nation’s borders and geographical features. Many aspects revolution the effectiveness of globalization including transportation, telecommunication, and industrialized advancements. Globalization is an extremely powerful tool that has the power to change the surface of the earth.
The term globalization had started gaining prominence towards the end of twentieth century. Over the period of time, it has become one of the most discussed phenomenon. It is not about the process of international integration of nations and their economic activities, but as a matter fact, it is way more complex involving other factors like environmental challenges, politics and other socio-cultural aspects.
