2. These definitions are in some ways related and to some existent overlapping but their emphases are
substantially different-the most common opinion of globalization is INTERNALIZATION.

3. "Global" is described as ross-border relations between countries, and globalization incomes a growth of
international exchange and interdependence globalization is found in enlarged movements between
countries of people money, investments, diseases, pollutants, messages, ideas, etc. (Scholte, 2005,16)

4. Globalization is liberalization-as "globalization means a process of removing state-imposed

restrictions on movements between countries in order to create an "open", "borderless world economy.

5. Globalization is used as universalization and that this means. "Globalization is the process of spreading
various objects and experiences to people all-around of the world.
We could see the evidence of globalization of the Gregorian calendar tobacco, rock music,
automobiles, Chinese restaurants, business suits, Barbie dolls, school curricula and much more;
globalization- as-universalization is viewed as standardization and homogenization with worldwide
cultural economic, legal and political convergence (Scholte, 2005, p.16).

6. Globalization is also widely used as westernization or modernization, it is called also

Americanization here the social structures of modernity like capitalism, rationalism, industrialism,
bureaucratize, individualism, and so on, are spread the world over, normally destroying earlier
existent cultures and local self-determination in the process.
7. “Globalization" in this sense is sometimes described as imperialism of McDonald's, Hollywood and
CNN; in this way, it is often interpreted as colonization, Americanization and "westoxication”.
8. Some scholars or academics talk about globalization as an ideology of Supposed progress that masks
far reaching subordination by the west of the rest.

9. Current large-scale globalization has resulted mainly from forces of modernity like rationalist
knowledge, capitalist production, and bureaucratic governance -it means that governance institutions,
firms, mass media, academics and Civil society associations in Western Europe and North America
have ranked among the most enthusiastic promoters of contemporary globalization
(Scholte, 2005, p.16; 58)
"Globalization is a complex web of social processes that
intensify and expand worldwide economic, cultural, political,
and technological exchanges and connections."
