To start off, globalization is not only a regional but also a global movement that

developed over time, its sundry phases, and its repercussions of it.

of globalization took place during the late 18th century. In addition to that, it explains
how it is that trade volume has decreased dramatically more tremendously throughout
most of the world crisis than it did during the Great Depression in the early 19th century
(Eichengreen & O’Rourke 2009). Many are anticipating another phase of globalization
following the current crisis, as it is entirely plausible that such a destructive economic
downturn would have had fundamental consequences on the global economic system.
Furthermore, I've also noticed that globalization favours established and advanced
The only things that are still unclear to me are whether the topics I’m about to

transportation of goods from one location to another would necessarily entail roads or
railways, and this is also where climate change could come into the equation,
it would always make a significant contribution to climatic changes and global warming

a prevalent misconception among those who are not familiar with globalization to think
that it could make developing countries much wealthier and more advanced in just a
snap. But even so, making a nation achieve the first world standard of living would take
quite some time. Lastly, I thought globalization is just nonsense and is not really worth

Of course, I’ve learned a lot just by reading a single article. However, questions

globalization only has advantages and does not have its disadvantages, because it
does. Being well-versed with globalization as college students could very well be
beneficial as we are now about to embark on our journey towards the real world since
we are currently in the last stages of our studies. As an engineering student, I certainly
