GLOBALIZATION
Globalization is widely perceived as the master concept of our time. Yet a consistent definition
remains elusive. Ironically, while participants in the globalization debate disagree over the
meaning and extent of the phenomenon, they are largely united in the view that globalization
impacts negatively on state power. In many cases, definitions of globalization presuppose in a
somewhat circular manner the very outcome (of state retreat) that demands empirical
investigation. A more fruitful conceptualization allows for the possibility that globalization may
actually complement and co-exist as opposed to undermine or compete with national sociospatial networks of interaction. This in turn paves the way for a more nuanced appraisal of the
differential impact of economic openness on the capacity for national governance. Specifying the
conditions, under which state capacities may be enhanced or diminished, sidelined or
strengthened, remains the key task for students of the politics of international economic
relations.1
In the least trivial sense, globalization is quintessentially an economic process, whose causes and
consequences may be political and social (as well as economic). This sense of an economic
process at the core of a globalization tendency is one that can be identified as more or less
implicit in most definitions of the term. Sociologists and political scientists tend to opt for more
encompassing and more general definitions in which economic happenings are often
presupposed. Thus, Anthony McGrew defines globalization as the multiplicity of linkages and
interconnections between the states and societies which make up the modern world system, and
as the process [whereby what happens] in one part of the world can come to have significant
consequences for individuals and communities in quite distant parts of the world.
Globalisation means the tendency of investment funds and businesses to move beyond domestic
and national markets to other markets around the globe, thereby increasing the
interconnectedness of different markets. Globalization has had the effect of markedly increasing
not only international trade, but also cultural exchange.2
