SOCIAL DIMENSION OF
GLOBALIZATION

The term "globalization" is employed in a variety of ways, but the core premise is
the gradual integration of economies and civilizations. New technology, new
economic ties, and national and international policies of a wide range of actors,
including governments, international organizations, business, labor, and civil society,
are driving this change. While some have proposed separating specific aspects of
globalization (such as increased international trade) from parallel developments
(such as technological advancements), others have argued that such a distinction is
impossible.
It is now well acknowledged that the distribution of the revenue generated by
economic progress is critical to the advantages of growth. The allocation of national
income among the factors of production, usually characterized as labor and capital, is
referred to as the functional distribution of income. The size distribution measures the
share of income received by individuals or families within certain income groups,
traditionally identified by the share of total income that is received by different
percentiles of the population. The impact of globalization on people's lives and work,
as well as their families and society, is referred to as the social dimension of
globalization. Concerns and issues about the influence of globalization on
employment, working conditions, income, and social protection are frequently
expressed. Security, culture and identity, inclusion or exclusion, and the unity of
families and communities all fall under the social dimension. The effects of
globalization on salaries and taxes, poverty, inequality, insecurity, child labor,
gender, and migration are examined in this study. the influence of globalization on
gender examines a number of contentious issues and is, in general, inconclusive.
While some early research suggested that globalization would have reduced gender
imbalances, owing to higher female involvement rates, more recent research
suggests that discrimination against women persists. When comparing gender
research with child labor research, the initial trend has been for both women and
children to become more incorporated into formal employment. The distinction is that
in the instance of child labor, greater participation rates of children were thought to
be harmful to children, whereas increased participation rates of women were
thought to be favorable to women.
Considering the vast literature on globalization, we notice that the social impact of
globalization on poverty, child labor, gender, and migration is still debatable, but a
consensus is emerging that globalization has exacerbated inequalities within and
across countries due to sharply diverging experiences at the individual and country
level, and increased economic and political insecurity even for those who have
benefited. Making causal links between changes in poverty and inequality and rising
economic globalization remains a difficulty, however, because today's globalization
process is influenced by global health and environmental crises as well as economic
factors (like AIDS and climate changes). Even though globalization was not the
primary cause of income disparity and poverty, it is likely to have contributed to the
poor poverty reduction performance (see Kohl) (2003).
