Globalization refers to the increased movement and exchange of people, goods, services, capital and information across borders. This increased interaction between regions can have both benefits and risks. Potential risks include intellectual property theft if products are manufactured overseas, corruption in some developing nations, social injustice and poor working conditions in multinational corporations. Globalization may also contribute to the spread of communicable diseases worldwide and increase environmental damage. Overall, globalization offers opportunities but also challenges to ensure fairness for all people.
