Globalization has become great problem which is said to be a from of

capitalism.

Globalization refers to increasing global

connectivity, integration and interdependence

in the economic, social, technological, cultural,

political, and ecological spheres. Globalization is

an umbrella term and is perhaps best

understood as a unitary process inclusive of

many sub-processes.

There are several definitions and all usually

mention the increasing connectivity of

economies and ways of life across the world.

The Encyclopedia Britannica says that

globalization is the "process by which the experience of everyday life ... is

becoming standardized around the world.

In economics, globalization is the convergence of prices, products, wages, rates

of interest and profits towards developed country norms. Globalization of the

economy depends on the role of human migration, international trade,

movement of capital, and integration of financial markets. The International

Monetary Fund notes the growing economic interdependence of countries

worldwide through increasing volume and variety of cross-border transactions,

free international capital flows, and more rapid and widespread diffusion of

technology.

Global economy was both the target and the tool of September 11 terrorist

attacks. In a world of free markets the economic shock of the Twin Towers’ fall,

spread across the globe. The consequence first loss of lives, but also of jobs,

business and money. 3
