20. Module 4 WEEK 5: Nation, States and Globalization
Globalization can both effect in a positive way and challenge the power of the
nation-state.
The processes of globalization date back many centuries, and influence the power
of the nation state in economic, political and cultural ways. Multiple tensions and
conflicts exist between global and national processes, institutions and cultures.
While globalization alters the roles and relationships of nation-states with each
other, as well as with other organized interests within the global political system.
It also indicates that global inequality is increasing, perpetuated at times by the
forces of globalization. A force that also has potential to erode cultural identity
and state sovereignty, resulting in a dubious fate of the nation-state.
