Globalization refers to the process of increased interconnectedness and interdependence among countries, economies, cultures, and societies around the world. It involves the exchange of goods, services, ideas, information, and technology on a global scale, leading to greater integration and interaction between different parts of the world. Globalization has been driven by advancements in technology, communication, transportation, and trade, and has had a significant impact on various aspects of society, including economics, politics, culture, and the environment. While globalization has led to increased economic growth and opportunities, it has also raised concerns about issues such as inequality, cultural homogenization, and environmental degradation.
