'A is for Appadurai': Globalisation and AppleDom Pates
This document outlines Arjun Appadurai's framework for understanding global cultural flows through five dimensions he calls "scapes": ethnoscapes, mediascapes, technoscapes, finanscapes, and ideoscapes. It defines each scape, provides quotes from Appadurai's work, and includes related images and videos as examples. The document questions whether Appadurai's scapes help in understanding globalization and what other frameworks may also help explain global cultural flows.
Globalization: Truest Meaning - PowerPointYaryalitsa
Globalization refers to increasing global connections and integration in economic, political, and cultural realms. [1] Optimists see benefits like increased prosperity through global economic integration, while pessimists worry about negative impacts like environmental destruction and loss of local culture. [2] The truest definition of globalization is that it describes how peoples around the world are increasingly part of a single global society and economy, with ideas, goods, and services circulating more freely across borders. [3]
Globalization is the process of international integration arising from the interchange of ideas, products and culture. Advances in transportation and telecommunications have been major factors in globalization by generating interdependence between economic and cultural activities. Globalization began increasing in the modern era due to factors like the steam engine, but some trace its origins back to 3000 BCE. In the late 19th century, the connectivity of the world's economies and cultures grew rapidly.
- Anthony Giddens defines globalization as the intensification of worldwide social relations that connects distant localities such that local events are shaped by distant events and vice versa.
- Giddens identifies four dimensions of globalization: the world capitalist economy, the nation-state system, the world military order, and industrial development.
- Postcolonialism consists of reactions to and analyses of colonialism's cultural legacy with the goal of addressing its residual effects and promoting mutual respect between cultures.
1. The document discusses different theories of globalization, including cultural convergence, cultural differentiation, and cultural hybridization.
2. It analyzes the works of several major theorists such as Giddens, Beck, Bauman, and Huntington, who have different perspectives on the impact of globalization on culture.
3. The theories of cultural convergence see globalization as leading to increasing cultural similarity worldwide, while cultural differentiation argues that core cultural differences persist despite global influences.
The document discusses cultural integration and the increasing homogenization of culture across the world. It argues that major cities are becoming very similar, sharing compatible systems of commerce, leisure pursuits, and built environments. Technological changes, multinational corporations, and global media have accelerated the spread and adoption of mass consumer culture worldwide, leading to the proliferation of "Trude-like" cities that are virtually indistinguishable from each other. Sports, brands, food, music and other cultural aspects now diffuse widely and help connect disparate places.
1) The document argues that the transnational capitalist class (TCC), comprised of owners of transnational corporations, globalizing politicians and professionals, and consumerist elites, shapes the dominant discourse around globalization.
2) Specifically, the TCC promotes discourses of national competitiveness and sustainable development to further the interests of global capitalism and negate growing inequality and environmental crises.
3) By framing all social institutions in business terms and using metrics like benchmarking, the TCC exerts economic, political, and ideological control on a global scale.

Globalization is a process by which people from different parts of the world influence each other through increased contact, driven by technological developments in communication and transportation. These developments have led to increased international trade, financial integration, and the growth of multinational corporations and international organizations like the UN. While globalization shrinks distances, it also increases diversity and interconnection worldwide in economic, cultural, and political realms.
The document discusses several concepts related to globalization theory, including McDonaldization, Americanization, and theories of cultural, economic, and political globalization. It summarizes the work of theorists like George Ritzer, Roland Robertson, and Joseph Nye who argue that while American culture has global influence, globalization is a complex phenomenon and not synonymous with Americanization. The spread of ideas and business models is a two-way process that also transforms American society through global connections.
Social Networking and Transnational CapitalismDavid Kreps
1) The document examines how social media platforms like Facebook operate within a transnational capitalist system dominated by venture capital firms and their investors.
2) It draws on Gramsci's concept of hegemony to argue that social media users unknowingly consent to having their data and relationships commodified for profit.
3) While social media presents itself as free and non-commercial, it relies on advertising revenue and collects vast amounts of user data that is valuable for market research and targeting ads. This represents the "commodification of friendship" for economic gain.
Globalization is a process of increasing integration and interaction between people, companies, and governments around the world. It is driven by international trade and investment and aided by information technology. This process affects many aspects of society including economics, politics, culture, and the environment. Some key aspects of globalization include the liberalization and integration of markets on a global scale, as well as the blending of cultures through increased travel, trade, and information sharing across borders.
Globalization is a complex process that involves the increasing interdependence of peoples and countries through economic, political, and social forces. There are three main schools of thought on globalization: hyperglobalizers see a decline in national powers and the rise of a global capitalist system; sceptics argue globalization is overstated and national powers remain dominant; transformationalists see national powers being reconstituted under globalizing influences. Modern technologies, economic integration, and political changes like the end of the Cold War have contributed to globalizing trends, but the extent and impacts are debated.
The document summarizes research on the impact of globalization on culture. It discusses how globalization has led to both positive and negative influences on cultural diversity. Positively, technology allows for cultural self-representation and preservation of identity. However, globalization can also encourage loss of individualism and increased Western influence. The summarized research was conducted among law students in Bangladesh and found that most use smartphones, social media, and the internet for both positive impacts like access to information, as well as some negative impacts like excessive social media use.
A homogeneous society is such a society where most of the people share the sa...hanan ampaso
A heterogeneous society consists of people from diverse backgrounds, including different cultures, ethnicities, languages, and religions. Such a society has several advantages, including exposing people to new cultures which can make them more tolerant. Living in a heterogeneous environment also allows people to learn from different traditions and adopt beneficial practices. However, some argue that heterogeneous societies can also face issues like minority groups feeling discriminated against or parts of the majority resisting cultural changes. Overall, a heterogeneous population tends to be more innovative and adaptive compared to a homogeneous one.
This presentation was given as part of the seminar - ‘On the Move - Global Migrations, Challenges and Responses’ which took place in Oslo, Norway on October 26 2016.
You can watch a recording of plenary sessions from the conference here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nKuY3_ua-Qs
The seminar was organized by the International Social Science Council (ISSC), CROP (Comparative Research Programme on Poverty) and Oslo and Akershus University College of Applied Sciences, and generously sponsored by Research Council Norway, with support from the Norwegian UNESCO Committee. Each speaker is responsible for the ideas contained in his/her PowerPoint, which are not necessarily those of the organizing partners or sponsors.
This document discusses sustainable globalization through six lenses: economic/financial, technology, poverty and inequity, limits to growth, movement of talent, and geopolitical. It focuses on two issues through the economic/financial lens. First, it discusses the need for an environmental, social, and governance framework in evaluating economies and companies. Second, it discusses the need to redefine gross domestic product to account for more than just growth. The document provides examples of imbalances highlighted by solely using GDP as a measure of globalization.
Globalization has led to the development of a "global village" through advances in communication technology that allow information to spread instantly worldwide. This interconnectivity means distant countries are now interrelated through trade, communication, and shared cultural experiences. While the global media has the potential to spread diverse views democratically, it can also promote the dominant ideologies and values of powerful Western countries through "cultural imperialism". The United States in particular dominates global media markets, raising concerns that local cultures may be diluted or subordinated to Western commercial interests.
This document discusses neo-liberalism as the dominant theory in globalization. It describes neo-liberalism as promoting individual liberty and free markets with limited state intervention. The document outlines key thinkers in neo-liberalism like Friedrich Hayek and Milton Friedman. It also discusses how neo-liberal policies were implemented in Chile in the 1970s and then spread globally through organizations like the IMF and World Bank, though with negative consequences like inequality. The document closes by noting the decline of neo-liberalism since the late 1990s financial crises and rise of opposition movements.
This document discusses the concepts of global governance, civil society, and global civil society in the context of globalization. It defines global governance as the decline of nation-state power and the rise of governance without government, through public policy networks, and at the global level. Civil society is defined as existing between the family and state, where individuals can participate in social institutions, and as a counterbalance to political and economic authority. Global civil society is a pluralistic, non-governmental form of society composed of interlinked social processes oriented toward civic participation. International non-governmental organizations (INGOs) are introduced as not-for-profit groups that perform public functions internationally without being established by nation-states.
Globalisation, Environment And BusinessPeter Cullen
The document discusses the historical relationships between world systems and business. It describes how human institutions act to reduce uncertainty and how businesses are designed to produce goods and services with stability. World systems have changed over time from isolated mini-systems to today's globalized multi-polity economies. Globalization has promoted reducing barriers between national borders to facilitate the flow of goods, capital, services and labor. The current globalized system integrates relationships between local, regional and global systems and has increased human impacts on the environment, shifting the nature of uncertainties.
Global governance refers to how countries organize themselves and make agreements to address shared challenges above the national level with clear rules. While the growth of international organizations suggests global governance is progressing, these organizations are often limited in what they can achieve due to a lack of consensus among states, which prioritize protecting their national interests. Key challenges like terrorism, climate change, and natural disasters require coordinated multi-state action but are hindered by issues like multi-polarity and institutional gridlock within organizations like the UN Security Council.
The document defines and discusses the concept of "grobalization". Grobalization refers to the imperialistic goals of large corporations and nations to expand their power and influence globally by imposing themselves on local cultures. It is a specific form of globalization that is more monolithic and aims to standardize cultures. The key aspects of grobalization discussed are the spread of multinational corporations like McDonald's and the homogenization of cultures that results from the dominance of Western capitalist values and products globally.
The document discusses the debate between globalists and skeptics over whether globalization is a single broad process or multiple globalizations. It outlines their differing views on topics like the power of nation-states, multinational corporations, and cultural identities. Additionally, it examines perspectives on when globalization began and the factors that drive the process, as well as ongoing discussions around its inevitability and both positive and negative impacts.
This document discusses several key concepts and metaphors related to understanding globalization, including:
1) Cultural homogenization and the uniformity of culture worldwide due to processes like cultural diffusion and the spread of capitalism.
2) The role of information and communication technologies in enabling the flows of finance, capital, ideas, and people across borders that drive globalization.
3) The changing roles and authority of nation-states in a globalized world where power and influence are spread across international and regional organizations.
4) The complex relationships between globalization, inequality, and processes like democratization and the growth of human rights and civic activism.
5) Transnationalism as a related but more delimited
The document summarizes the various groups that make up the anti-globalization movement, including organized labor, environmental groups, feminists, indigenous peoples, and anarchists. It discusses why each of these groups opposes aspects of economic globalization, such as fears over loss of jobs and wages for labor groups, concerns about the environment and indigenous groups' resources, and a belief that globalization supports patriarchal politics. Large anti-globalization demonstrations have taken place at forums like G8 summits and WTO meetings.
Globalisation refers to the increasing economic, social, and cultural ties between countries through expanding corporate institutions and the spread of capitalist philosophy. This integration of economies is made possible by technology, communication networks, and economic cooperation through trade blocs and free trade agreements. While trade increases choice and growth opportunities, it can also widen the gap between rich and poor nations and allow dominant countries and corporations to exploit resources and workers. As businesses expand globally to increase profits through lowering costs and controlling supplies, they face issues around their environmental, social, and economic impacts as well as challenges to their accountability across borders.
Globalization and Society was a presentation about the history and types of globalization. It discussed how globalization has increased connectivity and interdependence between world markets and businesses over the last two decades through the globalization of markets, production, and cultures. The presentation outlined the advantages of globalization, such as raised standards of living and knowledge sharing, but also the disadvantages, including harm to jobs and incomes and increasing the rich-poor gap.
Globalization refers to the increasing interconnectedness and integration of economies, societies and cultures across international borders. Key factors driving globalization include the internationalization of finance, technological innovation, and the growth of global consumer markets. While globalization has increased economic well-being in many areas, it has also led to economic decline in some regions and a loss of local cultural diversity as global products spread. Views on the impacts of cultural globalization range from seeing it as beneficial in promoting integration, to harmful if it leads to the destruction of local cultural heritage and identity.
Globalization involves the increased movement and exchange of goods, services, capital, technology and information across borders. It has brought both opportunities through increased connectivity as well as challenges to national sovereignty. Key drivers of economic globalization include advances in science and technology, the rise of multinational corporations, and increased financial integration between countries. While globalization threatens nation-state autonomy through various flows that transcend borders, international institutions and agreements aim to facilitate cooperation and resolve global issues.

This document discusses different perspectives on globalization. It begins by defining globalization as the increasing interconnectedness of countries through technological, economic, political and cultural exchanges. It then outlines Marxist, constructionist, and conservative views on globalization. It also discusses the economic, political and cultural aspects of globalization. Critics argue that globalization can negatively impact countries' native industries, jobs, and sovereignty. The document also examines how globalization has increased international trade, investment and migration through reducing barriers and transportation costs.

First 4 Readings of Locating Oneself in Global Learning! I suggest to do all of the readings from the class reading selection list on it'slearning. Here is just a reference so you do not have to open 4 different links in order to remember the content. Will add more as class progresses. We will have a great time learning together. These words are not my own and taken directly from the designated readings.
This document discusses Christian ethics and economics in the context of globalization. It explores different definitions of globalization, the impacts of economic globalization, and alternative perspectives. Some key topics covered include intellectual property rights, climate change, financial markets, power shifts from political institutions to economic ones, and debates around concepts like the common good. The document also examines how globalization may erode community and proposes ways to build community in response, such as through politics, ethics, civil society, new institutions, and extending democracy.
This ppt file contains complete information about galobalization and its very simple to present because its very relitive to the topic.
I present this to my class and got 10/10.
Its well designed and much easy to view the whole globalization .Its contains detaid information about globalization causes of globalization effects of globalization law of globalization and analysis of advantages and disadvantages of globalization.
I you pick this presentation you just need to change the name because it don't have unrelated constants.
The document discusses different perspectives on globalization. It outlines three major attitudes towards globalization: pro-globalists who support it, anti-globalists who oppose it, and alter-globalists who support alternative forms of it. It also describes some major criticisms of the current form of globalization from the perspective of anti-globalization activists and movements, such as that it undermines local control, benefits corporations over people, and exacerbates inequality between rich and poor nations.
This document provides an overview of contemporary globalization and its key aspects, including:
- Economic globalization and the increasing interconnectedness of economies through trade organizations like NAFTA and the WTO.
- Technological globalization driven by advances in communication technologies.
- Cultural globalization and the spread of Western culture through multinational corporations.
- Political globalization represented by institutions like the United Nations.
- Military globalization and the role of global alliances.
It also discusses theories of globalization's effects from scholars like Friedman and potential consequences such as environmental damage, labor exploitation, and the erosion of traditional cultures.
1. Established networks and international communities of 'interlockers' who bridge labour, radical knowledge, and social justice struggles have converged with free information/knowledge, culture, and economy communities.
2. This convergence has led to the political manifestation of movements like FLOSS, hackers' ethics, and telekommunism, as well as groups like Anonymous, LulzSec, Wikileaks, and Pirate Bay.
3. New forms of international labour communication and organizing have emerged, including projects like Unionbook and the New Unionism Network, as well as collaborative actions and global solidarity conferences.
Literature Review Of Globalization Yanxing Docguestef4a23
Globalization involves the increasing interconnectedness of economic and cultural activities across the world. It has accelerated due to faster communication technologies and the rise of multinational corporations operating globally. While globalization has increased economic opportunities, it also brings risks from greater dependence on central economies and rapid technological changes shaping the new knowledge economy. Key aspects of globalization include the de-localization of activities across great distances and the decline of national governments' power relative to international organizations and market forces.
Globalization is a complex phenomenon with arguments on both sides. Proponents argue that globalization leads to more efficient use of resources and economic growth that benefits all involved. However, critics argue that globalization threatens jobs and wages as companies outsource work overseas, and that it could undermine national sovereignty as corporations gain more power. Overall, there are reasonable perspectives on both sides of this complex issue with reasonable arguments that globalization may have both benefits and drawbacks.
This document discusses perspectives on globalization from both pro-globalists and anti-globalists. It outlines some of the perceived benefits of globalization such as increased trade and economic growth. However, it also notes concerns of anti-globalists, including threats to national economies, environmental degradation, and loss of jobs in developed countries. Anti-globalist perspectives come from both developed and developing nations. The document provides an overview of the complex debate around the impacts of globalization.
Globalization has led to increased economic integration around the world as large multinational corporations seek to expand into new markets and reduce costs. However, this has also created conflicts between the interests of powerful transnational companies and national governments, as well as risks of growing inequality and environmental degradation if not properly managed. For small countries like New Zealand, it means management decisions may increasingly be made offshore and local communities could be affected.
This document provides an overview of the contemporary world and globalization from the perspective of Prof. Dan Lhery Susano. It begins with definitions of the contemporary world and reasons for studying it, such as being aware of global issues and responsibilities as citizens. Globalization is then defined and the stages of globalization are outlined. Five aspects of globalization are discussed: economic, technological, cultural, political, and military. For each, one example is given. Consequences of globalization include both benefits like economic growth but also criticisms around environmental damage and cultural homogenization. The roles of international trade and institutions like the IMF, World Bank, and WTO in facilitating global economic integration are then summarized.
Globalization refers to the increasing integration and interdependence of economies, societies, and cultures around the world through cross-border trade, investment, and communication. There are three key aspects of globalization discussed in the document:
1. Economic globalization - The growth of international trade and investment has increased economic interdependence between countries. Western countries persuaded developing nations to open up by arguing their problems were due to a lack of technology.
2. Cultural globalization - The spread of Western culture through processes like westernization has led to cultural assimilation in many parts of the world. However, new communication technologies now allow for more diverse cultural exchanges globally.
3. Political globalization - As national boundaries become less significant economically
The document discusses globalization, defining it as the increasing interconnectedness of the world through trade, communication, culture and travel. It provides a brief history of globalization dating back to 325 BCE and highlights some key events and periods that advanced globalization. The advantages listed include increased free trade, investment opportunities, flexibility for corporations and sharing of information. Some disadvantages are the outsourcing of jobs to lower-cost countries, greater corporate influence over nation-states, widening gaps between rich and poor countries, and potential exploitation of workers in developing countries.
Globalization refers to the increasing integration and interdependence of economies, technologies, and cultures around the world. It involves the free movement of goods, services, capital, and people between countries.

3. “ Take, for instance the path that a strawberry in a Chicago supermarket took to get there. The strawberry “is likely to have come from Mexico, where it might have been grown with the help of pesticides made in the Rhine Valley of Germany and a tractor made in Japan. The tractor, perhaps constructed with Korean steel cast from iron ingots dug from the territory of tribal peoples in Papua New Guinea, was likely fueled with diesel pumped from the earth in southern Mexico. At harvest time, the strawberry may have been packed in a box made of cardboard from Canadian softwood pulp, wrapped in plastic manufactured in New Jersey, and loaded on a truck made in Italy with German, Japanese, and American parts. The ecological wakes of the…strawberry – like the production lines themselves – span the globe.” - Alan Durning
10. Neocolonialism The process by which rich, powerful, developed states use economic, political or other informal means to exert pressure on poor, less-powerful underdeveloped states.
12. The “challenge of globalization in the new century is not to stop the expansion of global markets.” Rather, the challenge is to “ensure that globalization works for people – not just for profits.” 1999 UNDP Human Development Report
25. Multinational Corporations (MNCs) A corporation which takes on many national identities, maintaining relatively autonomous production and sales facilities in individual countries, establishing local roots and presenting itself in each locality as a good local citizen. Globalized operations are linked to one another but are deeply integrated into the individual local economies in which they operate.
26. Transnational Corporations (TNCs) Corporations whose global networks are integrated around vertically integrated supplier networks. Although a TNC may choose to claim local citizenship when that posture suits its purpose, local commitments are temporary, and it actively attempts to eliminate considerations of nationality in its efforts to maximize the economies that centralized global procurement makes possible.
