deepening impact of worldwide interconnectedness.
• Globalization denotes a shift in the scale of social organization, the emergence
of the world as a shared social space, the relative deterritorialization of social,
economic, and political activity, and the relative denationalization of power.
• Globalization can be conceptualized as a fundamental shift or transformation in
the spatial scale of human social organization that links distant communities and
expands the reach of power relations across regions and continents.
• Globalization is to be distinguished from internationalization and
regionalization
