What is Globalization? A set of processes that are:-increasing interactions-deepening relationships-heightening interdependence without regard to country borders. A set of outcomes that are:-unevenly distributed-varying across scales-differently manifested throughout the world. Globalization Geographer Andrew Kirby explains that with globalization, we are living ânot so much in a world without boundaries, or in a world without geography â but more literally, in a world, as opposed to a neighborhood or a region.â
It is a word that constructs itself naturally in the English language by combining the word âglobalâ with the standard suffix âizationâ. It obviously must mean âto become globalâ, âto make globalâ or something along these lines. According to the Oxford dictionary, the word globalization was first employed in the 1930. It entered the Merriam-Webster dictionary in 1951. It was widely used by economists and social scientists by the 1960s. Marshall McLuhan, a Canadian who analyzed the impact of mass media on society, coined the term âglobal villageâ in 1962.
