The Importance Of Globalization

Globalization is the process by which different societies and cultures integrate through a worldwide network of political ideas through transportation, communication, and trade. Generally, globalization has affected many nations in various ways; economically, politically, and socially. It is a term that refers to the fast integration and interdependence of various nations, which shapes the world affairs on a global level. Simply put; globalization is the world coming together. In this essay I will discuss multiple perspectives on globalization through the analysis of these three sources.

Globalization is a phenomenon that allows nations to trade goods and services on an international scale in order to increase wealth and strengthen economic infrastructure. Since globalization encompasses such a large scale of businesses and workers, many people pose the question as to whether or not globalization is actually a benefit.

Globalization can be defined as ‘international integration’, which can be described as the process by which the people of the world are unified into a single society and functioning together. This process is a combination of economic, technological, and political forces (dictionary.com).

Frequently, people are unclear of exactly what Globalization means. Globalization is the tendency of the world's economies to act as a single interdependent economy. It can be described as the increased movement of people, knowledge, ideas, goods and money across national borders to make the world more unified in a sense. Globalization is often thought of in economic terms but as we know there are other components with this idea like, economics, and cultures. There is a huge debate of whether or not globalization is positive or negative.

Globalization is a process through which different organizations connect and coordinate with people and governments bodies of different countries for the international business through exports and imports, investments using technology across the world (Globalization 101, 2016).

Globalization, the process by which businesses or other organizations develop international influence, is a very important aspect in the operation of a company. Globilzatoin encourages companies from around the world to compete in the global market, which also impacts the growth and value of an international corporation. Internationalization is a company is costly and time consuming for a company because it requires extensive strategic planning, implementation, and analysis of a given global market, opputunities and threats. However increased involvement in foreignl investments is a strong portfolio asset for a company, and can ultimately lead to big opputunitiy pay offs and increased profits for any company. Some international businesses also benefit from the advantages of globalization, making it more manageable in other areas of their business including: operational expenses, labor expenses, and low cost resources by the processes of Offshoring and Outsouring certain sectors of their business and its operations. Of all the possible benefits of merging a business into the global market, the impact it has on branding for a company is most important, Brands like Louis Vuitton, Apple, & Macy’s are all prime examples of companies that have expanded their products into global markets by strategically planning, implementing stratagegy, and constantly researching and analyzing the international market structure. Tapestry Inc, is an example of a company in the intancy stages of

Having good historical context is very important in dictating the needs of a state. It is essential in knowing what certain trends and cultural roots a society may have. For example, Brazil received a huge boost in its economic development when globalization first occurred because they now became a central trading hub in South America. ‘Why is Brazil “Underdeveloped” and what can be done about it?’ states, “From 1913 to 1980, Brazil experienced sustained growth, interrupted only briefly in the early years of the Great Depression, at nearly two percent per year from 1913 to 1950 and nearly four percent from 1950 to 1980. In this period of nearly seven decades, Brazil had the fastest growing economy in the western hemisphere. Per capita GDP increased over eight hundred percent, from $678 in 1900 to $5570 in 2000, measured in 1990 dollars. Brazil’s economy gained on the U.S. economy, rising from only ten percent of US GDP per capita to over 20 percent.” This goes to show that clearly there is some benefit to having yourself involved in the world market which was created as a result of globalization. Although, it is also important to note that this also had an adverse effect on them later when their global market was no longer as valuable. This article later mentions, “Excessive centralism in the nineteenth century prevented municipal and state governments from borrowing abroad, or at home, to invest in needed infrastructure, such as road, ports, railroads, utilities, schools,

Globalization is the proximate and multidimensional set of political, economic, social, and technological integration around the globe. The increasing interconnectedness among countries can be seen through the prism of globalization. Essentially, the lives of people living in distant cities like Bangalore and Silicon Valley are brought closer as a result of this phenomenon. Drivers of this adjacent include; the expansion of trade, technological exchange, labor movement and investments (Stearns 2017). The discourse of globalization encompasses several multidisciplinary themes. The paper, however, concentrates on the economic factors, “which, entails the closer economic integration of countries of the world through increased flow of goods, services, capital and even labor.” (Stiglitz 2007: 4). The paper focuses on economic globalization and elucidates whether the globalization has reduced poverty and inequality or had reproduced the reversed implications. Meanwhile, the paper reveals if the developing world has benefited from the set. This seems to be the central question that policymakers, development economists, and politicians have been grappling with for years. The paper is presented in three parts. Part one reflects on the historical context of the problem statement. The second part compiles literature and juxtaposes with cases to corroborate the globalization-poverty-inequality triangle. Finally, the conclusion represents the author’s viewpoint on the

How can we keep our community identity intact when globalization redefines our history and democracy? As community members and citizens of the world we should understand how globalization is effecting our cityspace and realize vital components of a prosperous city are diversity, neighborhoods, and local governance. To understand these issues we will break down the economics and sustainability of globalization and further define these vital components.

As different states continue to try and emerge as powerful global leaders there is one argument that still seems to always be questioned. The question of globalization and whether every state should implement it within the international community. The growth of international flow of money, ideas, and culture help increase the interaction between people, states, and countries demonstrating full globalization. However, globalization is not only an economic issue but a cultural issue as well. To be a globalizing international community global leadership must go beyond prioritizing only one’s interest. Globalization has both benefits and drawbacks to being fully implemented in the international community. There are many states and actors within states that would benefit from a common economic goal, however there will always be some actors and states that would suffer from a common goal. In the global community right now there are many states that would be antiglobalization for many different reasons. Some include high tariffs, human security, and trade wars. However, globalization is worth defending and extending when every state is forced to have a common economic process of integration that has both social, economical, and cultural aspects. Their are many different states that take a different approach to globalization and antiglobalization. Their different approaches help drive the argument of whether globalization is with the impacts it has on not only the global leaders but

Globalization is a major issue in our world today. But it can be seen through many different perspectives, some see it as a negative thing, but some people also see the positives within it and some people have mixed views. Globalization is the spreading of different views, this can political views, social views, and economic views being spread throughout the world where it once wasn’t present. Globalization shapes the way people live and what they do on a day to day basis, or what’s going on around them like technological advancement. Globalization affects everyone, what we do, what we eat all shapes our individual and collective identities.

Globalization seems to be highlighted only in its best or its worst times, the world’s teleological swing from connection to division. Yet we seem to be blind to the inclines and down falls. We recognize innovation once it is complete, not while it is evolving, or we mourn over devastation when the signs it was coming were there all along. As our society cycles through these peaks and valleys we need to remember that ancient globalized societies rose and fell many times over. Although or world changes and so does our definition of globalization we are still able to show parallels of modern globalization in historical times.

Using 1997 financial crisis and other examples, discuss how globalization is important to the modern business journalism. Introduction

Dear old friend, it has come to my attention that we have a great epidemic on our hands! Globalization is the next step in the evolution of information, and let me be clear: it is a great step forward in connecting the world, but it will have its detriments to society as well. I believe the digital age has provided the world with unparalleled access to data and history, as well as the ability to communicate in an instance. This leads to growth in many aspects of everyday life including both, social, and a power over the news we can consume on a personal level. These of course all sound great if they did not come with a burden we must all, as a human race, come to fight, and protect ourselves against. This is about the fact that a human

Economic globalization remains an essential defining characteristic of our age and a way that is transforming the parameters of the global power and national state relations. Nevertheless, it is also unpredictable, uneven, and a different phenomenon. Asia-Pacific has been at the centre of globalization for the past 60 years. The region has benefited from globalization process and geopolitical merits, such as the Cold War, in manner in which other developing regions never experienced. Nevertheless, the regions international relations have also been considered paradoxical. During the period when globalization theory indicated the demise of the national economy and warning of national identity, East Asian growth was motivated, above all, by the developmental state, with great enthusiasm and interventionist governments often successfully supporting strong state identities and national neo-mercantilist economic policies. However, it is now obvious that developmental states has run their historical course and made redundant by their success within the global market (Chu 2016, p. 15).
