How the Market Expanded
The market expanded rapidly due to advancements in technology and transportation, allowing goods,
services, and information to flow freely across borders. This led to increased trade, investment, and
economic integration among nations. As a result, global supply chains were formed, connecting different
countries and revolutionizing the way businesses operate.
Challenges of Globalization
Globalization presents various challenges on economic, social, cultural, and political fronts. Economically, it
can lead to income inequality and job displacement. Socially, it can undermine local traditions and cultures,
while politically, it can create power imbalances and tensions. Understanding these challenges is crucial in
order to mitigate their negative impacts and create a more inclusive global society.
Liberalization Policy

The liberalization policy, which promotes free trade and the removal of barriers to the movement of
goods, services, and capital, has been a driving force behind globalization. This policy advocates for
deregulation, privatization, and opening up of economies, allowing for greater market access and
competition.
