Definition from Financial Times Lexicon

This is the integration of economies, industries,

markets, cultures and policy-making around the world. Globalisation describes a process by which national and regional economies, societies, and cultures have become integrated through the global network of trade, communication, immigration and transportation.
In the more recent past, globalisation was often primarily focused on the economic side of the world, such as trade, foreign direct investment and international capital flows, more recently the term has been expanded to include a broader range of areas and activities such as culture, media, technology, socio-cultural, political, and even biological factors, e.g. climate change.
After the fall of the Berlin Wall, some talked about the rise of a “one world way” of doing business and living, but more recent events have suggested that those thoughts were misplaced as we see the success of a number of varying economic and national systems.

- Sociologists Martin Albrow and Elizabeth King define globalization as: “All

those processes by which the peoples of the world are incorporated into a single world society.”
- In The Consequences of Modernity, Anthony Giddens uses the following definition: “Globalization can thus be defined as the intensification of worldwide social relations which link distant localities in such a way that local happenings are shaped by events occurring many miles away and vice versa.”

- Swedish journalist Thomas Larsson, in his book The Race to

the Top: The Real Story of Globalization, states that globalization: “Is the process of world shrinkage, of distances getting shorter, things moving closer. It pertains to the increasing ease with which somebody on one side of the world can interact, to mutual benefit, with somebody on the other side of the world.”
- The journalist Thomas L. Friedman popularized the term "flat world", arguing that globalized trade, outsourcing, supply-chaining, and political forces had permanently changed the world, for better and worse. He asserted that the pace of globalization was quickening and that its impact on business organization and practice would continue to grow.

Types of Globalization

Economic, Cultural, Political, etc.
Economic globalization:
Economic globalization echoes the

views of neoliberal and neoclassicist thinkers in which states lose prominence and the world becomes a single global market of individual consumers. These consumers are characterized by their material and economic self-interest – rather than cultural, civic or other forms of identity. The expansion and dominance of global companies and brands is another key feature. These corporations contribute to deepen global interconnectedness not only by uniformly shaping consumption patterns across societies, but by binding economies together through complex supply chains, trade networks, flows of capital and manpower (migration).

Cultural globalization:
It refers to the process of transmission of values,

ideas, cultural and artistic expressions. In the era of the Internet and fast communications people can interact more easily with each other. Multiculturalism and cosmopolitanism are to some extent manifestations of cultural globalization. Communities are less insulated than ever in history, even those who cannot travel can have today a good understanding of other cultures and meet virtually people from other parts of the world. People change their views and lifestyle influence by global cultural and consumption trends.

Political globalization
The political dimension is a newer feature of the

globalization debate, as over the last 30 years there has been a rise in the influence and power of international and regional institutions such as the European Union (EU), Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), the United Nations (UN), the World Trade Organization (WTO), MERCOSUR in South America, and the Association for Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN). The international and supranational actors increasingly shape domestic politics.

The Advantages of Globalization
1. Education: Due to globalization, the rate of

education is getting even higher. Almost 99 percent of people today have finished their studies and achieved decent jobs. They also learn lots of things which guide them to live in a wealthy or simple lifestyle.
2. Employment: Globalization generates employment opportunities for those people who still don’t have a job. Most companies today move to a well civilized country in order to give a chance to unemployed workers to gain a job that suits their abilities and expertise.

3. Cheaper Price: Most products in the market are offered in

a cheaper price due to competition.
4. Quality of Product: Through the machines that were produced because of globalization, the products offered to the people come with great quality.
5. Communication: The technology today allows the people to achieve clear and continuous communication with their family or the VIP’s in different countries.

The Disadvantages Of Globalization
1. Loss of Culture: Because entire things today

are well built and well advanced, the former culture and tradition of the people disappeared. Most of the people choose the well advanced world rather than to live just like the way before.
2. Health Problems: There are many health illnesses that were developed when globalization existed. Most health issues that occur are serious.

3. Environmental Degradation: The business mutiny really altered the outlook and

level of economy. Because most companies today are utilizing the natural resources, deforestation arises. They often destroy the land which often contains lots of minerals and resources.
4. Disparity: Even though globalization is widely open in the latest avenues such as employment and market, there is still a disparity that comes along with the improvement of the economy. Structural unemployment is obligated to the presence of disparity.
