What is globalization from an economic perspective? Globalization refers to the increasing interdependence between countries globally in terms of trade and manufacturing. MNCs- Multi National Corporations. These are very large firms which have production facilities in more than once country. Can you think of any?
What is globalization from a cultural perspective? As cultures begin to integrate and merge, many cultures adopt different aspects from different cultures. Can you think of any such cultures? Has this happened in your own culture? Most importantly, is this a good thing?
Advantages of Globalization Interdependence and higher quality goods and services as each country specializes in what they are good at (this sounds a bit like division of labour, doesn’t it?) Cheaper goods and services More reliance and better national ties
Disadvantages of Globalization Too interdependent High levels of competition and therefore high barriers to entry (remember when we spoke about this?) Countries and cultures may be negatively influenced and many people may complain of loss of tradition
