Globalization is the theory that a single world order has been created out of social, cultural, and economic relationships between organizations located around the world. Globalization can be a good thing and it can also be a bad thing. With globalization, each nation has the advantage of coming together as one. With this advantage, the nations are able to communicate, which allows a better understanding and broader vision of each nation. Economies in other nations are growing because of globalization. With trade, other nations have access to new technologies. For example, if someone goes on the internet in the United States and goes on facebook or one of those social pages, he or she will be able to connect with people living in Egypt or China. With this said, globalization can also reduce cultural barriers because multiculturalism is spreading due to the increase in tourism, trade, and technology.
There are, however, disadvantages that comes along with globalization. Some nations are losing their culture. Wealthy countries produce things such as clothing, technology, music, and movies which effects some nations because they are trying to be like the wealthy countries. This leads me into the other disadvantage which is competition. Even though globalization is intended to bring the nations together, it seems that some nations are trying be better than others.This causes a nation to have more cheap labors to work so that they can continue to make trade goods so that they can trade with other nations to make themselves better. So as you can see, globalization has its ups and its downs but it is up to the nations to end the differences and become one big happy family.
