The document discusses the origins and effects of globalization. It states that globalization has led to immense changes in people's lives by making the world more connected through advances in technology and the spread of the English language. Globalization began gaining momentum after the 18th century as Great Britain and later the United States rose to prominence through advances in communication, transportation, trade, science and commerce. Today, globalization has increased access to information, enabled new forms of global communication in business, and raised social awareness as people can now share ideas over the internet across borders.

The term ‘globalization’ is widely used to define a spectrum of
scientific, economic, linguistic, cultural, social, and political
changes that have shaped the world over the past 50-odd years.
Since globalization is a complex and multifaceted phenomenon,
it has been credited with a wide range of powers and effects. Its
proponents claim that it is both ‘natural’ and an inevitable
outcome of technological progress, and it can create positive
economic and political convergences.

Globalization has brought about immense changes in the lives of
people nowadays. The oyster of the world is in everyone's hands
because of the pervasive and potent powers of technology
embedded in the growth and impact of the English language.
With the ever-present and existing influences of science,
medicine, and arts, the world has turned into one living village:
borderless, robust, connected, and dynamic. Cultures, traditions,
beliefs, religions, and languages find their way into the current
stream of the World Wide Web or the Internet.
