Globalization: A Critical • describe cross-border relations between countries
Introduction
• describes the growth in interaction and interdependence
between people in different countries
• With growing flows of trade and capital investment there is the
possibility of moving beyond an inter-national economy,
(where 'the principle entities are national economies') to a
'stronger' version - the globalized economy in which, 'distinct
national economies are subsumed and rearticulated into the
system by international processes and transactions'
Globalization as liberalization.
• refers to 'a process of removing government-imposed
restrictions on movements between countries in order to create
an "open", "borderless" world economy'
Globalization as universalization.
