Definition of Globalization
- Globalization involves interconnectedness among societies and individuals, with porous national borders.
- Key actors in globalization include transnational corporations, social networks, and international organizations, in addition to national governments.
Impact on Cultures
- Globalization influences the economy, politics, and culture: beliefs, norms, values, language, food, and clothing.
- Perspectives on globalization vary:
- Some argue it leads to cultural convergence and a decline in diversity.
- Others see it as a catalyst for change that doesn't erase national identity, promoting "deterritorialization."
Technological Influence
- Advances in technology contribute to the shrinking of the world, enhancing global communication.
- The internet has revolutionized connections, allowing real-time interaction across vast distances.
- Technology enriches educational experiences by facilitating access to diverse perspectives.
Drivers of Globalization
- Colonization is a significant historical driver of globalization, introducing foreign cultures to local societies.
- Example: In the Philippines, colonizers brought languages, food, values, and educational systems that persist today.
- Similarly, countries like Singapore, Malaysia, and Indonesia have integrated external influences while retaining local traditions.
Diaspora and Migration
- Diaspora refers to the dispersion of populations, historically linked to Jewish communities outside Israel.
- In contemporary terms, it describes the movement of individuals inhabiting countries different from their own, closely related to the concept of migration.
