Globalization
 We live in a time of worldwide change. What happens in one part
of the world impacts people on the other side of the world. People around
the world are influenced by common developments.
The term Globalization is used to describe this phenomenon. ...
The business world, however, uses this term in a much narrower context to
refer to production, distribution, and marketing of goods and services at
an international level. Everyone is impacted by the continuing increase
in Globalization in a variety of ways. The types of food we eat, the
kinds of clothes we wear, the variety of technologies that we utilize,
the modes of transportation that are available to us, and the types of
jobs we pursue are directly linked to Globalization. Globalization is
changing the world we live in.
Causes of Globalization
Harris indicates there are three main factors contributing to
globalization.
The factors include:
• The reduction in trade and investment barriers to the post- world war
II period
• The rapid growth and increase in the size of developing countries’
economies
• Changes in technology
Trade Agreements
Originally each nation established its own rules of governing forein
trade.
