This document discusses globalization and localization. It defines globalization as the increasing interconnectedness of the world through intensified flows of ideas, goods, and people. Globalization has been occurring for hundreds of years and has resulted in increased international trade and the growth of multinational corporations operating in many countries. Localization is the process of adapting products and services for different local audiences and markets while still allowing for global distribution. Despite globalization, local customs and identities are still preserved in many places through pop music, religious differences, and some resistance to global corporations.

Globalization And Localization
This document defines and discusses globalization and localization. Globalization refers to the increasing interconnectivity between people worldwide through the free movement of goods, capital, services, people, technology and information. It has two main facets: the globalization of markets and the globalization of production. Localization is the process of making something specific to a particular place. It involves developing products or services in a way that localization is relatively easy to achieve. Localization anticipates local customs and practices to preserve local identities despite globalization forces.
Cultural integration
Cultural integration is a form of cultural exchange in which one group assumes the beliefs, practices and rituals of another group without sacrificing the characteristics of its own culture
3.10.3a Cultural Integration
The document discusses several factors that affect cultural integration, including technological change, transnational corporations, global media networks, the internet, tourism, migration, and government actions. It provides context around each factor and how it influences the mixing and changing of cultures globally.
Global media lesson 2
McLuhan argues that electronic media like telephones, television, computers, and the internet have connected people globally by allowing instant communication across vast distances. Through these media, people can now see and hear events happening thousands of miles away as quickly as local events. According to McLuhan, this speed of communication through electronic media allows people to react to global issues as quickly as they can communicate face to face, making the world feel like a single, global village.
Globalisation
Globalization refers to the increasing integration and interdependence of world economies, societies, and cultures due to reduced costs of trade, communication, and transportation. It is driven by multinational corporations operating on a global scale, new communication technologies facilitating the flow of information, and free trade agreements reducing barriers between countries. While globalization offers benefits like increased economic growth and spread of ideas, it also creates disadvantages such as job losses, greater inequality, and increased environmental impacts. Managing these challenges will require cultivating a global mindset and viewing diversity as an opportunity.
Regional economic development
Globalization is defined as the process by which the world is becoming increasingly interconnected through increased production of goods and services and improved transportation and telecommunications. Localization refers to restricting something to a particular place by emphasizing local customs and practices to preserve identities. Factors driving globalization include improved technology, the spread of knowledge and information, and multinational corporations, while political nationalism and separatist groups emphasize localization.
Brief definition globalization
This document summarizes key aspects of debates around globalization. It begins with definitions of globalization as the compression of time and space through increased interconnections and interdependencies globally. It then outlines some of the key processes highlighted by Bosworth and Gordon, such as the expansion of international commerce and private capital flows. It also discusses public controversies over globalization related to its winners and losers. Finally, it previews empirical and normative debates on issues such as whether globalization is a new era or nothing new, and whether it benefits the poor.
Chapter 1
Globalization is defined as the increasing integration and interaction between people, companies, and governments around the world, driven by international trade and investment and aided by information technology. This process affects environments, cultures, political systems, economic development, and human well-being globally. Globalization has resulted in increased international trade, companies operating in multiple countries, greater dependence on the global economy, and freer movement of capital, goods, and services. Localization responds to and results from globalization, focusing on distinctive regional, national, or local identities despite global forces. Local customs, religious differences, and resistance to economic penetration by global corporations preserve local identities in a globalized world.

6 Cultural Integration
Globalization refers to the increasing integration and diffusion of ideas, culture, technology, and economic activities across national boundaries. Cultural integration is the increasing blending of different cultures worldwide and the spread of a dominant global culture, which some argue leads to a reduction in cultural differences and dilution of local cultures. The document provides sources for the student to read about globalization and cultural integration, and poses questions for the student to consider in developing a discussion on how globalization impacts cultural diversity internationally and within countries.
Globalisation Revision
Globalisation has accelerated due to improvements in transportation and technology that have increased global flows and networks. While some places and people have benefited economically from greater integration, globalisation has also contributed to social, economic, and environmental challenges. Rising inequality, cultural tensions, and environmental degradation are issues that governments and organizations have sought to address through policies around trade, investment, migration, and sustainable development. Managing both the opportunities and risks of an increasingly interconnected world remains an ongoing challenge.
What is globalisation?
Globalisation is a long-standing process that has accelerated due to developments in transport, communications, and business. It involves widening and deepening global connections and interdependence through increased flows of commodities, capital, information, migrants, and tourists. Rapid advances in technology over the 19th and 20th centuries, especially in transport and ICT, have contributed to greater global integration and a "shrinking world" with stronger global networks.
Citizen journalism examples
This document summarizes several examples of citizen journalism:
- Salam Pax was an Iraqi blogger who chronicled life in Iraq during the war and anti-Saddam regime, at great personal risk.
- Mahmood's Den criticized the Bahraini government and is now facing legal action.
- African Eye promotes HIV/AIDS awareness in Africa.
- Zola and the Nailhouse was one of the first Chinese citizen journalists, focusing attention on local issues not covered by traditional media.
- Global Voices Online translates and shares citizen media and blogs from around the world.
Globa Media Cultures
Global media allows information to be shared worldwide through channels like regionalization and glocal production. Regionalization links countries by commonalities while glocal production adapts global concepts locally. Cultural proximity, the preference for media in one's own language and culture, still constrains globalization. Major global media players include news wire services, radio, music, film, television, and the internet, though wealthier countries import less and export more globally. While global media bridges divides, it can also spread inappropriate content or ideas and alter cultures, so media literacy is important.
Globalisation, sustainability and localism
This document discusses issues related to globalization, sustainability, and localism. It introduces the key topics to be covered, which are: understanding globalization and sustainability issues; learning about schemes to promote sustainable living; and evaluating the effectiveness of sustainability schemes and whether globalization conflicts with sustainability. The rest of the document provides further details on these topics, including discussions of local sourcing of goods, fair trade and ethical consumption, and recycling as responses to globalization and consumerism. It also examines the tensions between globalization and sustainability.
L4 ap social, political and environmental tensionrf
The document discusses varying attitudes towards migration and cultural mixing, noting that some people are welcoming towards new arrivals in Greece from Syria while others are more wary. It also provides context around key terms like post-accession migration, which refers to economic migration after a country joins the EU, and diaspora, meaning the dispersion of a group of people from their homeland. Borders between towns in Belgium and the Netherlands are described as "porous" with small bits of each country existing within the other due to a lack of clear geographical separation.
Social, environmental and political tensions caused by Globalisation
Globalization has caused various social, environmental, and political tensions:
- Open borders and increased migration have led to culturally mixed societies in some places but tensions in others, as seen with the rise of extremism in Europe and issues over trans-boundary resources.
- Governments have attempted to control the spread of globalization through measures like censorship, limiting immigration, and trade protectionism.
- Some groups seek to retain their cultural identity and control over resources, while others embrace the economic benefits of globalization.
Communication cultural globalization
Globalization has led to the increasing homogenization of culture through widespread communication and media. While some argue culture is becoming uniform, the interaction of local, national, and global influences is complex. The global communication industries are dominated by a few large Western, mainly American, corporations. This has contributed to the Americanization of other cultures through the widespread influence of American TV programs, films, music, and fast food and consumer brands. However, the changes occurring between cultures in contact is a two-way process known as acculturation.
What is convergence culture?
Media convergence involves the combination of new and old media within a single work. It allows for things like playing video games on a television set. Another example is combining cinema, television, and social media like YouTube so audiences can become users and producers. Convergence allows consumers to multitask with different media types at once like listening to music, emailing, and watching TV. There are technological, economic, cultural, and global dimensions of convergence as different media forms blend together.
The Mobile Wall
The Mobile Wall event involves bringing a large whiteboard wall around Melbourne that allows the public to write their dreams and hopes on it. The wall will document people's aspirations to bring the community closer together and acknowledge individuals' need to express themselves while encouraging collective pursuit of causes. Storify social media will be used to chronicle the event through a timeline as the wall makes its way around the city.
Convergence Culture
Convergence culture refers to the integration of different forms of media. There are five processes of convergence culture: technological, economic, social/organic, cultural, and global. Technological convergence involves digitizing different media like words, images, and sounds. Economic convergence is the integration of industries like entertainment. Social convergence occurs through how people personally experience different media simultaneously. Cultural convergence defines interactions between countries through new creative forms across media. Global convergence results from the international circulation of media content and cultural hybridity.
Globalization
Globalization is a process of interaction and integration among the people, companies, and governments of different nations, a process driven by international trade and investment and aided by information technology.
KCB201 Week 3 Slidecast: Convergence Culture
The document summarizes key concepts from Henry Jenkins' book "Convergence Culture" about how old and new media are colliding in participatory culture. It gives the example of "Bert Is Evil" where fans remixed Sesame Street images and it went viral. Jenkins argues convergence occurs through individual media consumption and social interactions, as people draw connections between media and share them. However, convergence is a contested term with different meanings depending on perspective, and is not inevitable but depends on multiple factors including consumer participation.
Effects of E-commerce to Globalization
Globalization is the increasing interaction and integration between people and companies around the world, driven by international trade and investment and aided by information technology. E-commerce, or online buying and selling, has further enabled globalization by allowing for comparison shopping and access to customers worldwide despite geographical limitations, with benefits including lower costs, increased efficiency, and the spread of technology, culture, education and political cooperation. However, globalization can also lead to issues like job losses, cultural homogenization, and a lack of international regulation.
Globalisation
The document discusses globalization and its effects. It defines globalization as the increasing economic interdependence between countries through growing cross-border flows of goods, services, capital and technology. It notes that globalization has led to merged global markets, sourcing from around the world, falling trade barriers, and technological innovation that facilitates communication and transportation. The document outlines both benefits of globalization, such as economic growth, and concerns, such as loss of jobs in some countries and power of multinational corporations.
Globalisation
Globalization refers to the increasing interconnectedness of economies and societies around the world. It has increased greatly due to improvements in communication, transportation, and trade agreements that allow for the easy movement of goods, capital, and information across borders. While globalization has connected people and allowed year-round access to foods, it has also led to less stable employment, outsourcing of jobs to lower cost countries, environmental damage from increased transportation, and threats to local cultures from large multinational corporations.
Presentation.pptx
Globalization refers to the increased economic and cultural exchange across international borders. It involves the production, delivery, sale, and movement of goods across countries. Globalization has increased trade through advances in technology that allow for quicker and more efficient international trade. It also leads to the spread of ideas and culture through shared media across borders. A key part of globalization is the rise of transnational corporations that operate in multiple countries. While globalization can increase economic opportunities and spread ideas, it also faces criticisms such as potentially exploiting weaker countries and spreading harmful ideas and pollution.
GLOBALIZATION
Globalization refers to the increasing interconnectedness between countries through trade, investment, information exchange, and cultural sharing. There are several types of globalization, including economic, political, cultural, technological, and environmental. Economic globalization involves integrating economies through flow of goods, services, and capital internationally. Political globalization is increasing cooperation between governments on political issues. Cultural globalization is the spread of cultural practices, values, and ideas across borders facilitated by technology and travel. Globalization provides economic opportunities and efficiency but also leads to job loss, income inequality, environmental damage, and cultural homogenization.
Session 2 Globalisation Class session.pptx
Globalization is a complex, multidirectional process involving the increased flow of people, goods, capital and ideas across international borders. It relates to international business through opportunities such as access to new markets and lower production costs, but also threats like increased competition. While globalization can benefit multinational corporations, it also risks exacerbating inequality between wealthy core nations and poorer peripheral countries. In response, companies practice glocalization by tailoring products to local customs and tastes in different markets.
The Causes and Effects of Globalisation
Globalization refers to the increasing interconnectedness of economies and societies around the world through trade and information sharing. There are three main types - economic, social, and political. Key drivers of globalization include improved communications like the internet, improved transportation infrastructure, free trade agreements, global banking, and the growth of multinational corporations. The effects of globalization include a changed global food supply, increased outsourcing and less job security in some countries, potential environmental damage from increased trade and transport, homogenization of cultures, and a rise in anti-globalization protests.

Globalization, its stages, causes, conditions and key players in globalization
Globalization involves the increasing flow of goods, services, capital, people, information and ideas across national borders. It affects nearly every aspect of daily life as goods and services are increasingly produced in other countries. Globalization is driven by falling barriers to international trade and investment as well as technological innovations that facilitate global communications and transportation. While it creates opportunities for businesses and consumers, globalization also poses challenges such as less job security and potential damage to local cultures and environments.

GLOBALISATION
The document discusses various aspects of globalization including communication, transportation, trade, and differing perspectives on its impacts. Communication has transformed with the rise of email, chat programs, and video calls, revolutionizing business and social life. Transportation improvements over the past 50 years have enabled faster delivery of goods across long distances at lower costs. While globalization provides access to markets and cheaper goods for developing countries, others argue it can have negative effects on cultures and economies if not managed properly.
Module 2 Globalization.pptx
Globalization refers to the integration of goods, services, and culture among nations due to advances in transportation and communication technologies. There have been three eras of globalization - from 1492 to 1800 centered around countries' power sources, from 1800 to 2000 driven by multinational companies, and the current era enabled by internet connectivity allowing individuals worldwide reach. While globalization allows firms advantages like worldwide expertise and 24/7 operations, it also presents challenges such as infrastructure differences, regulations, and cultural barriers. The digital divide separates those with and without internet access due to economic, usability, and empowerment gaps.
Globalisation and reverse flow
Globalization refers to the increasing interconnectedness of economies and societies around the world through trade, communications, and cultural exchange. It has increased significantly due to factors like colonialism, improved transportation and communication technologies, the growth of multinational corporations, and trade agreements that reduce barriers. The effects of globalization include changing food supplies to be available worldwide year-round, outsourcing of manufacturing to lower costs countries, less job security in developed nations, and impacts on local cultures and environments from corporate expansion. While globalization allows goods and ideas to spread rapidly, it has also faced increasing protests over its negative impacts.
Lesson 1a & 1b introduction to globalisation
The document discusses several factors that have accelerated the process of globalization over time:
1. Developments in transportation and communication technologies have compressed time and space, connecting more places faster and bringing the world closer together. This includes innovations like container ships, jet aircraft, internet, mobile phones.
2. The growth of large multinational corporations that can produce and source goods from multiple countries, taking advantage of specialization and lower costs. This includes companies like Ford establishing factories around the world.
3. Increased consumer demand globally for similar products and services, fueled by growing wealth and exposure to global media that spread Western cultural influences more widely.
4. Reductions in trade barriers and policies promoting
Globalization
Globalization refers to the growing interdependence and integration of economies, societies, and cultures around the world through cross-border trade, technology, communication and migration. It has increased economic opportunities but also harmed some groups. There are four key dimensions of globalization: economic, military, environmental, and social/cultural. Improved transportation and technology have facilitated globalization, as have reduced trade barriers and increased mobility of capital and labor. The impacts of globalization include more efficient markets, increased competition and wealth equality, but also threats like terrorism and job insecurity.
Effects of convergence by muzafar hamid
The document discusses the effects of convergence in the modern world. It states that convergence has merged different mediums like print, audio, video, and the internet onto single platforms. This has given rise to global marketing and cross-promotion. Convergence has also increased the efficiency of content creation and made instant information more accessible and affordable to consumers. However, it has also reduced privacy and gatekeeping while increasing competition between news organizations.
Globalization
Technology has greatly accelerated the process of globalization by making the movement of people, goods, money and information much faster and cheaper. Advancements in transport such as container ships, airplanes, trains and trucks, as well as improvements in communication technology like fiber optic cables and satellites, have connected the world in new ways. Developments in air transport and ocean shipping in particular have led to rapid growth in global travel and trade.
Secondary 2 Geography-Importance Of Transport And Communication
Transport and communications help increase accessibility and connectivity between people by reducing distance barriers. This allows for faster movement of materials, people, ideas, and decisions. While globalization facilitated by improved transport and communication brings economic and cultural exchange, it also risks spreading disease and reducing linguistic diversity as English becomes more dominant.
Globalisation
Globalization refers to the increasing interconnectedness of countries through trade and cultural exchange. It is driven by advances in technology and transportation that lower the costs of international transactions. Multinational corporations play a key role in globalization by operating across multiple countries. While globalization allows for more efficient use of resources and risk sharing, it can also result in job insecurity, environmental damage, and homogenization of culture as local businesses struggle against large multinationals. Both benefits and challenges stem from the rising tide of global integration.

Globalization is the most important force for change in the 21st century, affecting all societies on the planet. It entails the movement of capital, goods, services, and increased mobility of individuals across borders. Globalization refers to the increasing integration of economies worldwide through trade, capital flows, and movement of people. Two important changes made by globalization are infrastructural transformations like upgrading systems for improved performance, and social structural transformations through organizations, networks and institutions that bring people together. Globalization both benefits societies through increased trade, investment, competition and cultural diffusion, and poses risks such as harming developing economies, loss of local culture and labor drain. Questions were invited on when globalization began and its effects, both positive like
