Learning Objective

I can analyze the economic, social, and political impacts of globalization.

  • 1

    Globalization is a cultural phenomenon reflected in artwork, population migration, and linguistic changes, but is often focused on trade.

  • 2

    Contemporary global trade is anarchic and unregulated, due to academic economists arguing that governmental regulation diminishes prosperity by limiting growth.

  • 3

    Moving manufacturing jobs from high wage to lower wage countries allows a greater number of people to live better than they did when the First and Second Worlds monopolized manufacturing.
