Globalization: The Making of World Society

By Gabriel Lucas

Globalization refers to the worldwide interaction and integration of individuals, businesses, and governments, encompassing economic, cultural, and social dimensions. The proliferation of transportation and communication technologies is commonly attributed to driving globalization's expansion. Four fundamental aspects of globalization include movements of capital and investment, migration and displacement of populations, trade and commerce, and dissemination of knowledge. Academically, globalization is divided into three primary domains, namely, political globalization, economic globalization, and cultural globalization. Economic globalization is quantitatively measured using variables such as trade volumes, foreign direct investment, gross domestic product, and income levels. This book provides comprehensive insights into the subject of globalization. The topics covered in this extensive book deal with the core aspects of this domain. Coherent flow of topics, student-friendly language and extensive use of examples make this textbook an invaluable source of knowledge.
