ABSTRACT
Every day, we wake up with new things in our lives. They are
mostly about politics and economics but there is also one thing that
completely affect all of these study areas. It is technology. Technology is
one of the most important factors which shapes countries’s identities not
only politically but also economically and culturally. Technological
progress plays key role on improvements in income levels and standard
of living. One of the main dynamics that technology has intense
relationship with is Globalization.With the rise of capitalism, information
technologies , innovation, integration of economies through financial flows
show us this proximity between them. In this globalized world,
digitalization and digital transformation are getting hit as main bodies of
technology. For example; human-like robots,artificial intelligence, robot
dogs are most important ones of new industry age which is called
Globalization 4.0 or Industry 4.0. There are also positive and negative
impacts of this technology in our daily lives. In this article, I will try to
focus on advantages and disadvantages to live in the area of Fourth
Industrial Revolution in terms of relationship between technology, social
life and globalization.
transforming the ways that firms and individuals — as both workers and
consumers — communicate, search, trade, and invest. They are also
substantially changing how governments design and implement trade and
investment policies and programs and, in so doing, how they interact with
firms, individuals, and each other. This paper reviews the growing
empirical literature on the trade, investment, and broader development
effects of the adoption of specific digital technologies. It also describes
the policy applications of these technologies and discusses the incipient
empirical literature on the impacts thereof. Based on this review, it
identifies several open questions and avenues of future research that
may be useful for deepening our understanding of digital technologies
and their policy implications.

This report uses data from Europe, Africa, and North America to
examine the influence of digital technology on globalization. The
parameters for the study are the DAI index, the KOF index, and the GCI
index, which the researcher located in online government databases
(Gygli et al., 2019; The World Bank, 2019; The World Bank, 2022). First,
the DAI refers to the digital adoption indicator, which measures the digital
engagement of a nation along with multiple domains. The indicator
comprises a mix of Economic system = Businesses + Population +
Authorities for more than 180 nations (The World Bank, 2022). KOF is a
globalization indicator that measures globalization's financial and
sociopolitical components (Gygli et al., 2019). The KOF globalization
indicator contains over 40 contributing causes, covering economic,
monetary, social, cultural, and governmental elements of globalization for
more than 200 nations. Thirdly, GCI refers to the global competitiveness
indicator, which measures the distance between a nation and the
competitiveness border (The World Bank, 2019). The index ranks over
100 factors from 0-to-100, covering establishments, infrastructures,
Technology penetration, economic sustainability, healthcare, education,
market structure, labor force, the banking industries, market shares,
corporate vitality, and innovation capabilities for over 140 nations.
ANALYSIS
Today we are surrounded by our own technological innovations
that have been refined by years of observation, research, and
development. Every year, there’s a lot of companies that who is always
searching a new technology and they always try their best to make a
good quality of technology. Studies have shown that DIGITAL
TECHNOLOGY’S, can make our life easier or simple and more
convenient. Digital technology companies should provide a good quality
of technology, a technology that can help us to improve our daily life, and
because of that it has no negative impact or negative affect to the
economies, politics, and also to our environment.
RESULT
The diffusion of digital technology remains a significant way
via which globalization influence international competitiveness and, in
turn, inven- tiveness. Nations with a significant degree of globalization
enjoy widespread use of digital innovation, which enhances their
competitiveness, production, and creativity. The disparities in new digital
adoption throughout nations parallel the disparities in globalization
between nations. This research presents solid empirical proof that
globalization is crucial for transmitting and accepting digital technologies.
Further study is required to investigate and understand the
communication route connecting globalization and the use of digital
technologies in the enterprise sector. As regional enterprises exert
pressure on policymakers and domestic institutions to reduce obstacles
regarding technology exchanges, the degree of globalization is related to
a reduced hurdle to digitalization acceptance. Globalization reduces
technological obstacles, facilitates the adoption of digital technologies,
adapts to intense international rivalry, and compels domestic businesses
to adapt, hence boosting lifecycle management performance.
DISCUSSION
Globalization has brought about far-reaching changes around the world.
This has been driven primarily by the economic progress made by the
countries. Technology has played a significant role in speeding up
globalization, while globalization itself has been a constant driving force
for newer technologies.
PHENOMENA
And then came the fourth industrial revolution of the current (twenty
first) century, denoted as Industry 4.0, which is laying the foundation of an
information intensive transformation of manufacturing and service
industries in a connected environment of data, people, processes,
systems and industry assets, with generation, leverage and utilization of
actionable information as a means to realize smart industry. It is primarily
aimed at rendering high productivity, cost saving, minimized errors, and
reliable quality products and services for the customers world over.
Characteristics of Globalization:
Imagine, if the relevant technologies were not available, how could the
actions, reactions and the interventions mentioned above were going to
be possible at global scale to benefit nations.
The areas which have benefitted the humanity far more from the
globalization of technologies are, for example, healthcare, agriculture,
media, education, environmental monitoring, finance and banking and
supply chain.
And the supply - chain is another sector that has seen a virtual integration
of manufactured outputs, dispatch agencies, transportation and custom
and border management agencies among the suppliers and customers of
goods and services globally. It is made possible through the use of
efficient communication and transportation channels and globally
accepted standards of software applications.

Epilogue:
1. Social Connectivity
Digital technology makes it easy to stay in touch with friends, family, and
work remotely, even if you are in another part of the world. You can
express through words, video, audio, and exchange other media.
Websites, apps, and software have all been designed to help users to
socialize. With social media, messaging, texting, laptops, tablets, and
mobile phones, nobody needs to feel isolated in the digital world. News
and local events renew users regularly.
2. Communication Speeds
3. Versatile Working
4. Learning Opportunities
5. Automation
6. Information Storage
7. Editing
editing, which used to require costly studios and equipment, can now be
done on a laptop in a bedroom. All sorts of photographic impressions are
now available, as well as the ability to creatively alter images.
You know the world is large but technology had an impact to make
it smaller. Digital technologies improve ideas, people, money, and
materials to flow around the global world and it is faster and more
frequently than ever before. It helps in the interaction between cultures,
governments, and economies worldwide. There are so many technologies
that are becoming advanced in so many ways. Digital technologies bring
so many opportunities like you can do business whether it is national or
international. Yes, you read it right you can do national or international
business with anyone and anywhere in this entire world. You can contact
directly to anyone without the need for a third party. You can show your
talents to people directly online for business without the help of a third
party.
Technologies can help make our world fairer, more peaceful, and
more just. Digital advances can support and accelerate achievement of
each of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals – from ending extreme
poverty to reducing maternal and infant mortality, promoting sustainable
farming and decent work, and achieving universal literacy. But
technologies can also threaten privacy, erode security and fuel inequality.
They have implications for human rights and human agency. Like
generations before, we – governments, businesses and individuals –
have a choice to make in how we harness and manage new technologies.
You can teach dance, singing, or any subjects with the help of
digital technologies. Yes, you can earn by teaching online. There are
many platforms and sites available on which you can teach anything. For
example, YouTube has become popular nowadays. You can make a
video and post it on your YouTube channel. You can make a funny video,
dancing video, singing video, teaching any subject video or whatever you
like the most. The more the viewers are, the more you’ll earn. Digital
technologies make life so much easier every day that everything is just
one call away. You can buy any groceries items or daily items daily
through so many websites or platforms available online. This service is
available 24*7 not just for a few hours or a few days. When there’s an
emergency, then doctors are also just one call away.
The use of algorithms can replicate and even amplify human and
systemic bias where they function on the basis of data which is not
adequately diverse. Lack of diversity in the technology sector can mean
that this challenge is not adequately addressed.
These are exciting times not just for technological development but
also for technology policy—our technologies may be more advanced and
complicated than ever but so, too, are our understandings of how they
can best be leveraged, protected, and even constrained. The structures
of technological systems as determined largely by government and
institutional policies and those structures have tremendous implications
for social organization and agency, ranging from open source, open
systems that are highly distributed and decentralized, to those that are
tightly controlled and closed, structured according to stricter and more
hierarchical models. And just as our understanding of the governance of
technology is developing in new and interesting ways, so, too, is our
understanding of the social, cultural, environmental, and political
dimensions of emerging technologies. We are realizing both the
challenges and the importance of mapping out the full range of ways that
technology is changing our society, what we want those changes to look
like, and what tools we have to try to influence and guide those shifts.
At the same time that policymakers are under scrutiny both for their
decisions about how to regulate technology as well as their decisions
about how and when to adopt technologies like facial recognition
themselves, technology firms and designers have also come under
increasing criticism. Growing recognition that the design of technologies
can have far-reaching social and political implications means that there is
more pressure on technologists to take into consideration the
consequences of their decisions early on in the design process (Vincenti
1993; Winner 1980). The question of how technologists should
incorporate these social dimensions into their design and development
processes is an old one, and debate on these issues dates back to the
1970s, but it remains an urgent and often overlooked part of the puzzle
because so many of the supposedly systematic mechanisms for
assessing the impacts of new technologies in both the private and public
sectors are primarily bureaucratic, symbolic processes rather than
carrying any real weight or influence.
Since the largest private entities in the tech sector operate in many
countries, they are often better poised to implement global changes to the
technological ecosystem than individual states or regulatory bodies,
creating new challenges to existing governance structures and
hierarchies. Just as it can be challenging to provide oversight for
government use of technologies, so, too, oversight of the biggest tech
companies, which have more resources, reach, and power than many
nations, can prove to be a daunting task. The rise of network forms of
organization and the growing gig economy have added to these
challenges, making it even harder for regulators to fully address the
breadth of these companies’ operations (Powell 1990). The private-public
partnerships that have emerged around energy, transportation, medical,
and cyber technologies further complicate this picture, blurring the line
between the public and private sectors and raising critical questions about
the role of each in providing critical infrastructure, health care, and
security. How can and should private tech companies operating in these
different sectors be governed, and what types of influence do they exert
over regulators? How feasible are different policy proposals aimed at
technological innovation, and what potential unintended consequences
might they have?
in each country will be permitted by the other and which will be purchased
by other customers, outside those two countries. Countries competing to
develop the best technology is not a new phenomenon, but the current
conflicts have major international ramifications and will influence the
infrastructure that is installed and used around the world for years to
come. Untangling the different factors that feed into these tussles as well
as whom they benefit and whom they leave at a disadvantage is crucial
for understanding how governments can most effectively foster
technological innovation and invention domestically as well as the global
consequences of those efforts. As much of the world is forced to choose
between buying technology from the United States or from China, how
should we understand the long-term impacts of those choices and the
options available to people in countries without robust domestic tech
industries? Does the global spread of technologies help fuel further
innovation in countries with smaller tech markets, or does it reinforce the
dominance of the states that are already most prominent in this sector?
How can research universities maintain global collaborations and
research communities in light of these national competitions, and what
role does government research and development spending play in
fostering innovation within its own borders and worldwide? How should
intellectual property protections evolve to meet the demands of the
technology industry, and how can those protections be enforced globally?
forward, and what could new structures and process for governance of
global technologies look like? Why has the tech industry’s self-regulation
culture persisted? Do the same traditional drivers for public policy, such
as politics of harmonization and path dependency in policy-making, still
sufficiently explain policy outcomes in this space? As new technologies
and their applications spread across the globe in uneven ways, how and
when do they create forces of change from unexpected places?
CONCLUSION
Last but not least, there is a close relationship between global economy
and technology. Thanks to this relationship, technology rebalances the
global economy and it affects each part of our social lives. With the
reshaping of the labor market, most of the technological developments
have been introduced by the machines. Workers, managers and
politicians are arguing more and more about whether artificial intelligence
can seize people’s business, not only in the technology sector, but also in
other sectors. The digital world, which has negative points as well as
positive sides, leads us to think more about technology. We will wait and
see together what artificial intelligence and developing technologies will
add to us.
