Globalization and communication have made it easier to see people on the other side of the
world as a neighbor, instead of a stranger from a faraway land. Through globalization and
communication we have greater awareness of cultural differences across the globe. We
also have greater contact with different cultures, with which we often live side-by-side. As our
societies become more prosperous, culture becomes a business. For example, there is a
strongly growing international trade and investment in cultural goods and services. We are
interested in enjoying cultural experiences, be it through tourism, cultural events, food or the
like. On the side of the environment, Globalization and Communication can help spread the
positive effects of environmentally friendly technologies and practices from developed to
developing countries. This also can help our country by minimizing pollution by importing more
environmentally friendly technologies or adopting stronger environmental policies and
standards. In terms of politics, Globalization and communication brings governments together
so that they can tackle common goals together. For example, due to globalization world leaders
have seen the impact of pollution and have resolved to tackle climate change together. Also, it
is unlikely that country trading takes a lot of products and services with another that will attack it
or want to go to war with it. All of the said benefits affect our society significantly because one
element is as essential as the other. Globalization is not a simply process that helps bring goods
around the world easier; instead, it is a process that helps bring us all together in a way that we
benefit mutually from one another because of what we acquire from each other.
Each country has something that is considered unique and peculiar that can be brought to
another country that may be able to help one element of their country to prosper.
Communication helps globalization to occur properly as, without communication, the process of
globalization will become tough as there is no proper way to understand one another. Once the
element of communication is included in globalization, the trading of goods, the exchange of
political views and opinions, etc., becomes a more straightforward process.
