Globalization: A Working Definition

Globalization described the process as “ the


expansion and intensification of social relations
and consciousness across world-time and
across world-space. (Manfred Steger)
Expansion

refers to both the creation of new social


networks and the multiplication of existing
connections that cut across traditional, political,
economic, cultural, and geographical
boundaries.
Intensification
refers to the expansion ,
stretching, and acceleration
of these networks.
Not only are global
connections multiplying, but
they are also becoming more
closely-knit and expanding
their reach.
“ globalization processes do not occur merely
at an objective, material level but they also
involve the subjective plane of human
consciousness”
People begin to feel that the
world has become a smaller
place and distance has
collapsed from thousands
of miles to just a mouse-
click away.
globalization represents
the many processes that
allow for the expansion
and intensification of
global connections
Globalism

Globalism is a widespread
belief among powerful people
that the global integration of
economic markets is beneficial
for everyone, since it spreads
freedom and democracy across
the world.
