Globalization is the process by which economies, cultures, and populations around the world become more integrated and interdependent. It is driven by advances in technology, transportation, and communication, which have facilitated the flow of people, goods, and ideas across national borders.
Globalization has both positive and negative aspects. On the positive side, it has led to economic growth, the spread of new ideas and technologies, and increased cultural exchange. In many parts of the world, it has also helped reduce poverty and raise living standards.
But globalization has also had negative consequences. This has led to job losses in some sectors, as companies move production to countries with lower labor costs. It has also contributed to income inequality and environmental degradation, as companies prioritize profits over sustainability.
